Chemical reaction is any process that involves rearangent of the molecular or ionic structure of substances. each chemical reaction is characterised by an activation energy required for the reaction to occur ,for the change or rearrangement to take place
now fro combustion of fuel:we provide this energy by spark (heat pulse).now what about electrolysis?just the mode and manner of providing energy is different:instead of talking of activation energy,we talk of activation overpotential,both bring conceptually the same thing.heat energy is replaced by potential difference in rough terms.

so in short ,electrolysis is a chemical change ,just the mode of activation is different that thermally initiated chemical reactions

Determine the pressure change when a volume of gas at 760 mmHg is heated from 30.0 °C to 40.0 °C.
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

<u>253.33 mmHg</u>

Explanation:

According to Charles' Law,

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

P₁T₂ = P₂T₁

P₂ = P₁T₂ / T₁

= 760 x 40 / 30

= 760 x 4/3

= 1013.33 mmHg

Change in Pressure

= 1013.33 - 760

= <u>253.33 mmHg</u>

Answer:

A homogeneous mixture has the same uniform appearance and composition throughout. Many homogeneous mixtures are commonly referred to as solutions. A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances or phases. The three phases or states of matter are gas, liquid, and solid.
