Answer:

Warm Room

Explanation:

Let's establish two things first.

  1. Sound is a form of energy.  
  2. Waves are made by the oscillation (up, down and sideways movement) of partials. When partials oscillate, they transfer energy by bumping into each other.

<em>Sound wave are waves that are created by the </em><em>oscillation of air particles </em><em>and carry </em><em>sound energy</em><em> from point A to point B.  </em>

<em />

In a warm room, the air particles have <em>higher energy</em> compared to a cold room. Hence, they bump into each other <em>more frequently. </em>

This allow them to transfer the sound energy <em>quickly and easily </em>from one partial to another.  

Hence, sound travels faster in warm room then in cold room.

Answer:

Explanation:

Sound travels outwards from the source in all directions. So there you have it sound does travel faster in warm air BUT it may appear to travel farther in cold air. This is how that works……if the air close to the ground is colder than the air above it then sound waves travelling upwards will be bent downwards.

Nitroglycerin is a dangerous powerful explosive that violently decomposes when it is shaken or dropped. The Swedish chemist Alfr
marshall27 [118]

<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation for the decomposition of nitroglycerin is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Decomposition reaction is defined as the reaction in which a single large substance breaks down into two or more smaller substances.

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the decomposition of nitroglycerin follows:

4C_3H_5N_3O_9(l)\rightarrow 12CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)+6N_2(g)+O_2(g)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of liquid nitroglycerin decomposes into 12 moles of carbon dioxide gas, 10 moles of gaseous water, 6 moles of dinitrogen gas and 1 mole of dioxygen gas.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation for the decomposition of nitroglycerin is written above.

How many joules are required to completely convert 5.0 g of ice at 0.0 degrees Celsius into water vapor at 100 degrees Celsius?
Mumz [18]
In this question, we have to use 3 equations. 
E = mcΔT,  E = mlf and E = mlv
E is the energy required (in joules), m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity of water, ΔT is the change in temperature, lf is the specific latent heat of fusion, and lv is the specific latent heat of vaporization.

Since this question requires the change in temperature during the water state, so the first equation is used, and last 2 equations are for finding the energy required to change state (from ice to water and from water to vapor) (in their mp and bp).

For the specific latent heat and heat capacity, generally they should be given for the question, but we can also look it up online since each substance has their own value. 

So the first step is to find the amount of energy needed to convert ice at 0°C to water at 0°C. We can use the second equation. The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is around 334 J kg^-1

E = mlf
E = 5 x 334
E = 1670 J

Next, we have to find the energy required to heat water at 0°C to 100°C. The specific heat capacity of water is around 4.2 J g^-1 °C^-1.

E = mcΔT
E = 5 x 4.2 x (100-0)
E =  2100 J

Then we have to find the amount of heat required to change water at 100°C to water vapor at 100°C. The specific latent heat of vaporization of water is around 2230 J g^-1.

E = mlv
E = 5 x 2230
E = 11150 J

Therefore, to find the final answer, just add up the 3 values for the total energy required.

1670 + 2100 + 11150
= 14920 J

Your final answer should be 14920 joules.

How many moles of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) are needed to react completely with 6.8 moles of lithium hydroxide (LiOH)? 2LiOH + H2SO4
den301095 [7]

The correct answer is 3.4 moles of sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) are needed to react completely with 6.8 moles of lithium hydroxide.  

2LiOH + H₂SO₄ → Li₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

The given chemical equation is balanced.  

By using stoichiometry, one can witness the following:  

2 moles of LiOH requires 1 mole of H₂SO₄

So, 6.8 moles of LiOH requires (1/2) × 6.8 = 3.4 moles of H₂SO₄
