2.B. Describe the difference between a reaction that occurs spontaneously and one that does not. Spontaneous chemical reactions release energy and use that energy to power itself; non-spontaneous chemical reactions need to absorb energy, which they can't absorb their own energy that they don't even have.

A substance releases 2,192 J of heat, changing its temperature from 50 degrees C to 5 degrees C. The mass of the substance is 73
Gre4nikov [31]

The specific heat capacity of the given substance is -0.66 J/g°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat absorbed by any substance is the product of its mass, specific heat capacity and change in temperature.

q = m × c × ΔT

m is the mass in grams

q = amount of heat released or absorbed in J

ΔT = change in temperature in °C = 5 -50 = -45°C

c = specific heat capacity in J/g°C

c = $\frac{q}{m \times dT}

Plugin the values, we will get,

c = $\frac{2192 }{73.9 \times-45}

= -0.66 J/g°C

Chlorine and bromine are elements in Group VII.
Goryan [66]

Explanation:

Bromine is a chemical element with the symbol Br and atomic number 35. It is the third-lightest halogen, and is a fuming red-brown liquid at room temperature that evaporates readily to form a similarly coloured vapour. Its properties are intermediate between those of chlorine and iodine. Isolated independently by two chemists, Carl Jacob Löwig (in 1825) and Antoine Jérôme Balard (in 1826), its name was derived from the Ancient Greek βρῶμος ("stench"), referring to its sharp and disagreeable smell.

What type of wave do the contractions of the snake muscles make as the snake moves forward
S_A_V [24]
Actually, there are four kinds of reptile motion: 

Concertina - vermiform. Circular muscles around the snake squeeze the front of the snake's body out long, then the latter half is pulled forward. 

Rectilinear crawling - Belly scutes are moved forward individually in a wave-like motion. 

Side-winding - Snake's version of "walking". Use by several species to move over fluidic substrates, such as sand. 

Lateral undulation - Most common form of movement. Snake presses on alternating pressure points to force body forward (or backward)

What are transferred in an oxidation-reduction reaction (1 point)?
madreJ [45]
electrons are transferred    in a oxidation-reduction  reaction

oxidation reduction  chemical equation involve  electrons  transfer   between  two species. In this reduction-oxidation type of chemical equation    oxidation  number of   molecule, atoms or ion  changes  by  gaining or losing  electrons,that is there  an oxidizing  agent and a  reducing agent  in the reaction.
