Answer:  51.3\times 10^3 kJ

Explanation:

The thermochemical equation for decomposition of ammonium nitrate is:

NH_4NO_3(s)\rightarrow N_2O(g)+2H_2O(g)   \Delta H=-82.1kJ

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass= 50.0 kg =50.0\times 10^3g   (1kg=1000g)

\text{Number of moles of ammonium nitrate}=\frac{50.0\times 10^3g}{80g/mol}=0.625\times 10^3moles

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of NH_4NO_3 gives = 82.1 kJ of heat

Thus 0.625\times 10^3moles of NH_4NO_3 give =\frac{82.1}{1}\times 0.625\times 10^3=51.3\times 10^3  kJ of heat

Thus 51.3\times 10^3 kJ of heat is evolved from the decomposition of 50.0 kg of ammonium nitrate.

Which statement accurately describes dark matter?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

C. It does not emit electromagnetic radiation.

Explanation:

Right now, Dark Matter is only a theory. Scientist proposed this to counter some of the strange phenomenon with matter in space.

Scientists know little about dark matter. Some say it's one of the driving forces of the universe. Currently, scientists have no way of measuring or identifying dark matter.

What is meant by the term chemical reaction​
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

<h3>\huge{ \underline{ \underline { \bold{ \sf{ \orange{See \: below}}}}}}</h3>

Explanation:

▪️\underline{ \bold{ \sf{ \blue{Chemical \: reaction}}}}

⇒The composition , decomposition or displacement of molecules of matter during chemical change is called chemical reaction.

▪️\underline{ \bold{ \sf{ \purple{ \: Further \: more \: explanation}}}}

Various conditions bring about these changes. The chemical reactions are represented by chemicalequation. The compounds or elements that take part in chemical reaction are called reactant. They are written at the left side of an arrow that represent a change while the compound or elements that formed after the chemical change are called product. They are written at the right side of the arrow.

▪️\underline{ \bold{ \sf{ \purple{For \: example}}}}

When nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia :

Nitrogen + Hydrogen ⇒ Ammonia

N₂ + 3H₂ ⇒ 2NH₃

<u>Presentation </u><u>of </u><u>a </u><u>chemical </u><u>reaction </u><u>in </u><u>the </u><u>form </u><u>of </u><u>equation </u><u>is </u><u>called </u><u>chemical </u><u>equation </u>. <u>Chemical equation may be word equations or formula equations.</u>

Hope I helped!

2. A cell with few energy needs would most
sattari [20]

A Cell with few energy needs would most likely contain a small number of Mitochondria.

  • All cells require energy to function, but cells typically have significant energy needs that can only be met by the mitochondria, the cell's powerhouse.
  • They transform glucose into ATP, a chemical with a huge energy storage capacity.
  • Muscles have a large number of mitochondria, allowing them to react rapidly and powerfully to the body's ongoing need for energy.
  • Macromolecules, defunct cell components, and microbes are all digested by lysosomes.
  • Vacuoles are typically tiny and aid in the sequestration of waste.
  • The ribosome, an intercellular structure consisting of both RNA and protein, is where a cell produces new proteins.

Therefore out of all these cell organelles, the cell has fewer mitochondria for less energy need.
