Answer: elastic to mechanical

Explanation: According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another.

Elastic energy is the energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object. The energy is stored until the force is removed. When the force is removed,  the object gets back to its original shape.The deformation can involve compressing, stretching or twisting of an object.

Mechanical energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position and motion.

vlada-n [284]

Complete Question:

Theresa creates an experiment where she mixes two red-colored substances together in a container and observes the solution slowly changing from red to blue for the next eight minutes. The solution becomes completely blue after eight minutes. What does this represent about the type of change happening in the container?

Group of answer choices

A. A chemical change started immediately and finished at eight minutes.

B. A non-chemical change started immediately and finished at eight minutes.

C. A chemical change occurred at four minutes.

D. A non-chemical change occurred at four minutes.

Answer:

A. A chemical change started immediately and finished at eight minutes.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as the chemical process which typically involves the reaction between two or more chemical elements (substances) to form a new compound, through the rearrangement of the ionic or molecular structure of each chemical element.

This ultimately implies that, a chemical reaction is a chemical change that immediately starts when two or more molecules of a chemical element (substance) known as reactants are combined together to form a new product (compound).

In this scenario, Theresa creates an experiment where she mixes two red-colored substances together in a container and observes the solution slowly changing from red to blue for the next eight minutes. The solution becomes completely blue after eight minutes. Thus, what this represent about the type of change happening in the container is that, a chemical change (from red to blue) started immediately and finished at eight minutes.

Write the condensed formula from left to right, starting with (CH3)x where x is a number.
pochemuha

Complete question:

Write the condensed formula from left to right, starting with (CH3)x where x is a number.

See attached image for the structure formula of the compound

Answer:

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃ named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane

Explanation:

If we number the longest chain of the carbon starting from the left, we will observe that there are four carbons in the straight chain as shown in the image.

Starting from first carbon from the left of the carbon chain, at carbon number number 2, there two alkyl group, that is two methyl (CH3 is two). Also at carbon number 3, there are three alkyl group, that is three methyl (CH3 is three).

The condensed formula will be written as;

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃

This compound is named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane, an isomer of Heptane

Suppose that you add 26.7 g of an unknown molecular compound to 0.250 kg of benzene, which has a K f of 5.12 oC/m. With the adde
nadya68 [22]

Answer: The molar mass of the unknown compound is 200 g/mol

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=2.74^0C = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for molecular compound)

K_f = freezing point constant = 5.12^0C/m

m= molality

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}

Weight of solvent (benzene)= 0.250 kg  

Molar mass of solute = M g/mol

Mass of solute  = 26.7 g

2.74^0C=1\times 5.12\times \frac{26.7g}{Mg/mol\times 0.250kg}

M=200g/mol

Thus the molar mass of the unknown compound is 200 g/mol

The flavor of anise is due to anethole, a compound with the molecular forumal C10H12O. Combustion of one mole of anethole produc
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Change in temperature of calorimeter is 4.52^{0}\textrm{C}

Explanation:

Molar mass of anethole = 148.2 g/mol

So, 0.950 g of anethole = \frac{0.950}{148.2}moles of anethole = 0.00641 moles of anethole

1 mol of anethole releases 5541 kJ of heat upon combustion

So, 0.00641 moles of anethole release (5541\times 0.00641)kJ of heat or 35.52 kJ of heat

7.854 kJ of heat increases 1^{0}\textrm{C} temperature of calorimeter.

So, 35.52 kJ of heat increases (\frac{1}{7.854}\times 35.52)^{0}\textrm{C} or 4.52^{0}\textrm{C} temperature of calorimeter

So, change in temperature of calorimeter is 4.52^{0}\textrm{C}
