What is chemical potential energy?

Chemistry
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]3 years ago
7 0

Chemical potential energy: chemical potential of a species is energy that can be absorbed or released due to a change of the particle number of the given species, in a chemical reaction or phase transition

Gasoline used as kinetic energy: the various chemicals that make up gasoline contain a large amount of chemical potential energy that is released when the gasoline is burned in a controlled way in the engine of the car. The release of that energy does two things. Some of the potential energy is transformed into work, which is used to move the car

Dynamite used as kinetic energy: the dynamite being used was most likely made of nitroglycerin. Once the dynamite explodes from a percussion force (then breaking of weak bonds to releasing the raw atom) the energy is then converted to thermal, kinetic, and sound energy.

In pea plants, yellow seeds are dominant to green seeds. A heterozygous yellow-
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The phenotypic percentage of having yellow or green seeds is 50% for having either of the two colours

Explanation:

The crossing to determine the offsprings is shown in the image attached where we have two green (Yy) seeds and two yellow (yy) seeds as offsprings.

Thus, <u>the phenotypic percentage of having yellow or green seeds is 50% for having either of the two colours</u>.

Note, the dominant allele is "Y" while the recessive allele is "y". Thus, Yy would produce a yellow colour while yy would produce a green colour (as both mentioned in the question).

Also note that phenotype describes the outward properties/characteristics of an individual.

How many oxygen atoms are contained in 2.74 g of Al2(SO4)3?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

5.79 × 10^23 Oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Number of Oxygen atom in the compound = 4×3 = 12

Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 = 342 g/mol.

No of mole = mass/molar mass = 2.74/342 = 8.01×10^-03 mole

2.74g of Al2(SO4)3 × 1 mole of Al2 (SO4)3 / 342g of Al2 (SO4)3 * 12 mole of Oxygen/ 1mole of Al(SO4)3 * 6.02×10^23 Oxygen atom/ 1 mole of Oxygen

= 5.79×10^23 Oxygen atoms

Why does thermal energy decreases when potassium is dissolved in water​
Levart [38]

Answer:

The process of dissolving can be endothermic (temperature goes down) or exothermic (temperature goes up).

When water dissolves a substance, the water molecules attract and “bond” to the particles (molecules or ions) of the substance causing the particles to separate from each other.

The “bond” that a water molecule makes is not a covalent or ionic bond. It is a strong attraction caused by water’s polarity.

It takes energy to break the bonds between the molecules or ions of the solute.

Energy is released when water molecules bond to the solute molecules or ions.

If it takes more energy to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes down (endothermic).

If it takes less energy to separate the particles of the solute than is released when the water molecules bond to the particles, then the temperature goes up (exothermic).
