An asteroid is smaller than a moon, it moves, and at times even falls to planets.
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago

An asteroid is not considered a moon because it is a rock that floats in space and sometimes gravity pulls it in a different direction.

Exothermic reactions release energy. Where is the energy used for these reactions to occur stored? .
Tanya [424]

Answer:

In the chemical bonds.

Explanation:

There are different types of chemical bonds, some store a TON of energy while others do not store as much. You can think of it like this: for bonds with low energy, it takes a LOT of force to pull them apart, meaning they are strong bonds. However, this way, you have to put energy into them to break the bonds and form a chemical reaction. This is an endothermic reaction, a reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings.

Instead, bonds in exothermic reactions are BEGGING to form a more stable bond, and hence store a lot of potential energy. Due to the difficulty of maintaining these bonds, there is a lot of energy put into them. If you break them, however, (exothermic reaction) the energy is released, and hence the exothermic reaction happens.

Hope this helped. Please give Brainliest! :>

Which of the graphs below might represent a mixture of pure water and ice exposed to a room temperature of 3°C?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

C. Graph C  

Explanation:

We have a mixture of water and ice.

At 0 °C they are at equilibrium.

water-to-ice rate = ice-to-water rate

Next, we lower the temperature to -3 °C — just slightly below freezing.

The water will slowly turn to ice.  

The water-to-ice rate will be slightly faster than the ice-to-water rate.

The purple bar will be slightly higher than the blue bar.

Graph C best represents the relative rates

A. is wrong. The ice-to-water rate is faster, so the water is melting. The temperature is slightly above freezing (say, 3 °C).

B. is wrong. The two rates are equal, so the temperature is 0 °C.

D. is wrong. The water-to-ice rate (freezing) is much greater than the ice-to-water rate, so the temperature is well below freezing( say, -10 °C).

According to which theory or law is a chemical reaction most likely to occur when two particles with the proper energy and orien
Nat2105 [25]
<h2>Collision Theory </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>The given statement is related to the collision theory - </h3>

Collision theory was given by William Lewis in 1916.

This theory explains in a qualitative manner that in what way any chemical reaction occurs and the reason for the different reaction rates for different reactions.

<h3>According to the collision theory - </h3>
  • Molecules must collide in order to react
  • Sufficient amount of energy is needed for collisions (kinetic energy) so that the chemical bonds should break
  • This energy used is known as the activation energy
  • On the increase in the temperature, the kinetic energy of the molecule increases and the molecules move faster and collide with a proper orientation at an increased speed
  • This increases the rate of a collision that in turn increases the breaking of the bond

Which of the following elements does NOT form a diatomic molecule? Question 5 options: H2 O2 Mg2 Br2
erica [24]
Mg is a metal. Under ordinary conditions it will not form a diatomic molecule. The other 3 are non metals. They come from the right side of the periodic table and they willl form diatomic molecules.
