Answer: Gunpowder
Explanation:
Gunpowder is made by mixing potassium nitrate with two fuels (atoms that can combine with oxygen atoms and release energy), carbon (charcoal) and sulfur. The oxygen atoms leave the nitrates and move onto the carbon and sulfur atoms, releasing a buttload of energy.
False. An increase in temperature is an exothermic reaction. However, when a temperature decreases this is known as an endothermic reactionz
Answer:
Mn(s)/Mn^2+(aq)//Co^2+(aq)/Co(s)
Explanation:
In writing the cell notation for an electrochemical cell, the anode is written on the left hand side while the cathode is written on the right hand side. The two half cells are separated by two thick lines which represents the salt bridge.
For the cell discussed in the question; the Mn(s)/Mn^2+(aq) is the anode while the Co^2+(aq)/Co(s) half cell is the cathode.
Hence I can write; Mn(s)/Mn^2+(aq)//Co^2+(aq)/Co(s)
Antoine Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity when he was studying
X- rays.
He had been studying phosphorescent uranium ores and hypothesized that they might absorb sunlight and reemit it as X-rays.
His hypothesis was wrong, but his experiments led to the discovery of <em>natural radioactivity</em>.
