c. The energy source of tsunami waves is much greater

Explanation:

The major difference between a tsunami waves and ripple waves is that the energy source of tsunami waves is much greater compared to ripple waves.

Tsunami waves carry more energy compared to just a disturbance resulting from a ripple caused by dropping of a stone.

  • A tsunami is a large water wave caused by the displacement of water usually by an earthquake.
  • An earthquake is a releases elastic waves suddenly within the earth crust.
  • Water bodies at the epicenter are disturbed sending huge volume of energetic water loads to the land.
  • A ripple is just a product of a stone dropped inside the water.

Tsunamis are more energetic compared to ripples in water.

Particles of Substance X are dispersed in water to form a colloid. Which describes the electrical charges on the particles of Su
Novay_Z [31]

The correct answer is option A.

All the particles carry the same charge, which could be either positive or negative.

All the particles of substance X will have same charge on its surface, which is balanced by the oppositely charged ions in the water.

For example, soap solution (sodium palmitate) dissociates into ions:

C₁₅H₁₁COONa --> C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻ + Na⁺

The cations (Na⁺) passes into the water while the anions (C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻) form aggregates or colloids.

Cuando se quema 1 mol de metano –o sea, 16 g–, se desprenden 802
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.

Explanation:

La cantidad de energía liberada por la combustión de una unidad de masa del hidrocarburo (Q), en kilojoules por mol, es igual a la cantidad de energía liberada por mol de compuesto (\bar {Q}), en kilojoules por mol, dividido por su masa molar (M), en gramos por mol:

Q = \frac{\bar Q}{M} (1)

A continuación, analizamos cada caso:

Metano

Q = \frac{802\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{16\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 50.125\,\frac{kJ}{g}

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

Octano

Q = \frac{5500\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{114\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 48.246\,\frac{kJ}{mol}

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.
