Conversion of mass into energy. When an atom is split, the mass will be slightly less, and this weight difference will be converted into energy. I hope that helps!

Answer:

Conversion of mass into energy

Explanation:

In chemical reactions, the mass is conserved. In chemical reaction the matter cannot be created nor be destroyed.

While in nuclear reaction, the mass is not conserved. The mass gets converted to energy.

The relation is : E= mc²

Thus in nuclear reactions tremendous amount of energy is released.

In both fission and fusion reactions mass gets converted to energy.

Your feet get hot walking across a beach. which type of heat transfer is occurring from the sand to your feet?
Andrews [41]
The heat transfer just occurred is mainly conduction.

Conduction happens when two objects are in contact with each other. In the hotter object, the molecules and/or free electrons have a higher kinetic energy, thus they'll travel and collide into other molecules, resulting in spreading the energy to the other object.

The heat transfer happens until thermal equilibrium, where both objects have the same temperature and their molecules have the same kinetic energy rate. 

In addition, radiation is also happening since everything that has a higher temperature than the environment is a net emitter. They release electromagnetic waves that turn out to be radiation. These occur even without the presence of air.

The solubility product for an insoluble salt with the formula M2X3 is written as ________, where s is the molar solubility
masha68 [24]

Answer:

36s^5

Explanation:

We have;

M2X3 (s)------> 2M^3+(aq)  + 3X^2-(aq)

If [M^3+(aq)] = [X^2-(aq)] = s

We then have;

Ksp = (2s)^2 * (3s)^3

Ksp = 4s^2 * 9s^3

Ksp = 36s^5

Note that Ksp is known as the solubility product. It is an equilibrum equation that shows the solubility of a solute in water.

A 0.0200 gram piece of unknown alkaline earth metal, M, is reacted with excess 0.500 M H 2 SO 4 , and the hydrogen gas produced
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

0.981atm

Explanation:

According ot Dalton's law total pressure of a mixture of non-reactive gas is equal to sum of partial pressures of individual gases.

total pressure= 1.01at

Number of gases=2

Gases: water vapor and hydrogen

partial pressure of water vapor= 0.029atm

1.01= partial pressure of water vapor+ partial pressure of hydrogen

1.01= 0.029 + partial pressure of hydrogen

partial pressure of hydrogen = 0.981atm
