Increasing alternative energy sources
zavuch27 [327]3 years ago

1) Answer is: a.increasing alternative energy sources.

For example, using more biofuels derived directly from plants or solar energy.

Biofuel is renewable energy source, but not green energy source. Green energy does not harm ecosystems, contribute to acid rain, or worsen global warming. Biofuels produce greenhouse gases (carbone dioxide, methane).

Solar radiation is the source of electric energy.

2) Answer is:

a) Separation.

Crude oil is mixture (solution) consist of several different hydrocarbons (alkanes, alkenes...).

This hydroalkanes can be separated from mixture (crude oil) using distilation (usually fractional distillation), because they have different boiling points.

b) Conversion.

Hydrocarbons with bigger molecular mass are split into lighter ones.

c) Treatment.

For example gasoline, diesel fuel and heating oil are made.

Classify the following as a type of potential energy or kinetic energy (use the letters K or P)
Zanzabum
K, P, K, K, P, K, K, P, K, P. If it is moving, it is kinetic, if it isn't, it's potential. the sugar one is a little tricky using that method though, because we generally consider this in terms of spacial movement, but sugar holds energy which is later released by your body to allow you to move.the chemical bonds have potential energy because they release energy when broken.

mafiozo [28]

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws which explains that at constant pressure, the temperature and volume of a gas are directly proportional to each other. According to kinetic theory, as temperature rises the kinetic energy of gas also increases proportionally

The half life of Po-218 is three minutes. How much of a 200 atom sample will remain after 15 minutes
MakcuM [25]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

6.25 atoms

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

  • The half life of Po-218 is 3 minutes
  • Initial sample is 200 atom
  • Time of decay is 15 minutes

We are required to calculate the remaining mass after decay;

Half life refers to the time taken for original amount of a radioactive sample to decay to a half.

To calculate the remaining mass we use the formula;

N = N₀ × 0.5^n where n is the number of half lives, N is the new amount and N₀ is the original amount.

n = 15 min ÷ 3 min

  = 5

Therefore;

New amount = 200 atom × 0.5^5

                      = 6.25 atoms

Therefore; the amount of the sample that will remain after 15 minutes is 6.25 atoms.
