Explain the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy.

Chemistry

Potential energy is energy that is stored for example a wind up toy, it has energy but in order for you to get kinetic energy, it has to move. So kinetic energy is moving energy.

The difference is that potential is stored and kinetic is moving energy.

Answer:

<u>Potential energy is</u> the stored energy in an object or thing, while <u>kinetic energy is</u> the energy which an object contains because of a particular motion.

For each row in the table below, decide whether the pair of elements will form a molecular or ionic compound. If they will, then
Olin [163]

Answer:

\begin{array}{cccll}\textbf{Element 1} & \textbf{ Element 2} &\textbf{Compound?} &\textbf{Formula} &\textbf{Type}\\\text{Ar}&\text{Xe} &\text{No} &\text{None}&\text{Neither}\\\text{F}& \text{Cs} &\text{Yes} &\text{CsF} &\text{Ionic}\\\text{N} &\text{Br} &\text{Yes} & \text{NBr}_{3}&\text{molecular} \\\end{array}

Explanation:

You look at the type of atom and their electronegativity difference.

If ΔEN <1.6, covalent; if ΔEN >1.6, ionic

Ar/Xe: Noble gases; no reaction

F/Cs: Non-metal + metal; ΔEN = |3.98 – 0.79| = 3.19; Ionic

N/Br: Two nonmetals; ΔEN = |3.04 - 2.98| = 0.

Would the N=O bond in HNO2 be longer, shorter, or the same length as the N-O bonds in NO2-?
aivan3 [116]

Explanation:

Bond order is inversely proportional to the bond length.

B.O\propto \frac{1}{B.L}

In HNO_2 molecule. one nitrogen is double bonded to nitrogen and one oxygen is single bonded to nitrogen and hydrogen bond.

  • Bond order between the (N=O) bond is 2 which means that bond length between the (N=O) bond is shorter than that of the N-O bond.
  • Bond order between the (N-O) bond is 1 which means that bond length of the N-O bond is longer than that of the bond length of (N=O) bond.
