A burner on a stove produces temperature. thermal energy. hotness. fire energy.
Aleksandr [31]

Question:

The options are;

a. Temperature

b. Thermal Energy

c. Hotness

d. Fire Energy

Answer:

The correct option is;

b. Thermal energy

Explanation:

A burner on a stove produces thermal energy which is used to raise the temperature of the metal container (kettle, pot or pans) in which items are placed for heating.

Thermal energy is the internal energy of the system given off as heat which when transferred from one body to another causes the temperature of the receiving body to rise. Thermal energy in a burner is given off when the gaseous fuel reacts or burns in the presence of or with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor in an exothermic reaction.

4C + 5H₂ + 13/2O₂ (-125 kJ) → C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O (-2877 kJ).

If 185 mg of acetaminophen were obtained from a tablet containing 350 mg of acetamino- phen, what would be the weight percentage
Alex73 [517]

Percentage recovery gives us an idea of the amount of pure substance recovered after the chemical reaction. Percentage recovery can be more than 100 % or less than 100 %. Usually, in any experiment performed the weight percentage recovery will be less than 100. Percent recovery values greater than 100 show that the recovered compound is contaminated.

Amount of acetaminophen initially taken = 350 mg

Amount of acetaminophen obtained after recovery =185 mg

Weight percentage recovery =\frac{mass recovered}{mass originally taken}*100

                                                = \frac{185 mg}{350 mg}*100

                                               = 52.9%

Mercury is a liquid meteal but it is not hard? how can we say it is a metal
NNADVOKAT [17]
What's the problem ? Hardness is not the definition of a metal. You need to expand your thinking. EVERY element is solid, liquid, and gas, over different ranges of temperature ... including all of the metals. There are only TWO elements that are liquid AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, and mercury is one of them. But on a mild day at the south pole, mercury is solid too.

What is the correct scientific notation for 640,000,000? Question 5 options: 6.4X10^8 6.4X10^10 64X10^10 640X10^8
N76 [4]
For very large numbers, it is much more convenient to use scientific notation. To do this, detect first the position of the decimal point. For whole numbers, the decimal point is place implicitly after the very last digit. Then, move this decimal point to the left until you reach to the last digit. In this case, you moved 8 places until you reach 6.4. Because the number is more than 1, the exponent would have a positive sign. Hence, the scientific notation would be 6.4×10⁸.

What is the energy change associated with 1.5 mole of D being formed? 
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

–36 KJ.

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

2B + C —› D + E. ΔH = – 24 KJ

From the equation above,

1 mole of D required – 24 KJ of energy.

Now, we shall determine the energy change associated with 1.5 moles of D.

This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the equation above,

1 mole of D required – 24 KJ of energy

Therefore,

1.5 moles of D will require = 1.5 × – 24 = –36 KJ.

Therefore, –36 KJ of energy is associated with 1.5 moles of D.
