Answer:
100 J of energy are needed to heat the copper from 20∘C to 80∘C .
Answer: Activation energy
Explanation:
In a chemical reaction, the reactants contains particles which must collide in order for a reaction to occur. The rate of reaction depends on the frequency of effective collision between the reacting particles. Effective collision are those that result in reactions, which when they occur the colliding particles become activated with increased kinetic energy.
This energy must exceed a particular energy barrier for a particular reaction if the reaction must take place. This energy barrier that must be overcome before a reaction takes place is known as the ACTIVATION ENERGY.
To explain further, when two particles or molecules A and B come in contact with each other, for a reaction to take place, they must collide with a sufficient force to break the bond that exists between them. The minimum combined kinetic energy these reactant particles must possess in order for their collision to result in a reaction is called the activation energy.
Answer:
Why? Because of electron shells. Technically, they're not fully inert. They have very low reactivity potential, and can only be forced to become reactive with difficulty.
Explanation:
All chemical reactivity is made possible through the atom's electron arrangement. Electrons basically have shelves where they live, called "levels" or "shells". Each level is farther from the nucleus than the previous one. Atoms are most stable when their outer most shell (called the valence shell) is full. Atoms with an incomplete shell will react with other atoms, in an attempt to either fill out the outer shell, or to rid itself of it's valence electrons so that that previous level becomes a full valence level. If the valence shell ils already full, the atom will not be inclined to create compounds.
The first shell can hold up to two electrons. After the first two electrons, any additional electrons have to begin a new shell. The second shell can hold eight electrons before it becomes full. Helium is the first noble gas on the periodic table, having two protons and two electrons. Because helium's outer most shell is full, it does not react with other atoms.
By comparison, look at hydrogen and oxygen. Oxygen has eight electrons. The first two electrons occupy the first shell. The remaining six go to the second shell. This leaves the second shell with two empty spaces that can potentially be filled. Meanwhile, hydrogen has one electron, with it's valence shell having an empty space for one additional electron. Two hydrogen atoms give up their single electrons to an oxygen atom, so that all three end up with stable valence levels.
By the time an atom can fill out the second electron shell on it's own (10 total electrons) you end up with neon, the second noble gas.
Answer:
400 mL of 4% salt solution and 600 mL of 16% salt solution need to be mixed
Explanation:
Let's assume concentration of brine salt solutions are in %(w/v) unit.
Final mixture has a concentration of 11.2% salt and volume of 1 L or 1000 mL
Hence, amount of salt in final mixture = 
Suppose x mL of 4% salt solution and (1000-x) mL of 16% salt solution need to be mixed to get final mixture
So, amount of salt in x mL of 4% salt solution = 
amount of salt in x mL of 16% salt solution =
Hence, 
or, 
So, 400 mL of 4% salt solution and 600 mL of 16% salt solution need to be mixed
