What causes thermal energy to be released

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]3 years ago
8 0

Thermal energy (also called heat energy) is produced when a rise in temperature causes atoms and molecules to move faster and collide with each other. The energy that comes from the temperature of the heated substance is called thermal energy.

If 200 g of benzoyl peroxide are used with 38 Kg of PTFE monomer, calculate the expected molecular weight of the polymer if (i)
den301095 [7]

Explanation:

The molecular weight of benzoyl peroxide is 242.23 g/mol.

Therefore, number of moles present in 200 g of benzoyl peroxide are as follows.

            No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                                  = \frac{200 g}{242.23 g/mol}

                                  = 0.825 mol

Molecular weight of PTFE is 100 g/mol.Hence, calculate the number of moles of PTFE in 38 kg as follows.

As 1 kg = 1000 g. So, 38 kg = 38000 g.

             No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                                  = \frac{38000 g}{100 g/mol}

                                  = 380 mol

As it is given that the initiator is 15% active. So, actual number of moles of benzoyl peroxide are as follows.

                        0.15 \times 0.826

                           = 0.124 mol

For combination, 1 mol of benzoyl peroxide produces 1 chain. Therefore, degree of polymerization will be calculated as follows.

                    DP = \frac{380 mol}{0.124 mol}    

                          = 3065.33 mol

Average molecular weight of monomer is as follows.

       \frac{0.124}{0.124 + 380} \times MW_{benzoyl} + \frac{380}{0.124 + 380} \times MW_{PTFE}

       = 100.05 g/mol

Therefore, calculate the expected molecular weight of polymer as follows.

                   3065.33 \times 100.05 g/mol

                     = 306675.23 g/mol

Hence, for disproportion 1 mole benzoyl peroxide produces 2 chains.

                     DP = \frac{2 \times 380}{0.124}

                           = 6129.03

Therefore, calculate the expected polymer weight as follows.

                     6129.03 \times 100.05

                   = 613209.68 g/mol

Thus, we can conclude that the the expected polymer weight is 613209.68 g/mol.

Which part of the amino acid helps identify features that differentiate one amino acid from another
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The part of the amino acid which helps to identify features that differentiate one amino acid from another is the SIDE CHAIN OF EACH AMINO ACID.
Amino acids are made up of five basic parts, these are:
1. A central carbon atom
2. A hydrogen atom
3. An amino group
4. A carboxyl group and 
5. A R group, also known as a side chain.
The side chain distinguishes one amino acid from the other; different amino acids have different side chains.

What did Bohr conclude about the atom after observing emission spectrum lines a. Electrons can exist in any energy state but hav
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Option c: Possible electron energy states are quantized within an atom.

Explanation:

The Bohr's Model of the hydrogen atom consisted of the movements of the electrons around the positively-charged nucleus in circular orbits that have a certain energy state. The energy of that orbit is given by:  

E_{n} = - \frac{Rhc}{n^{2}}

<em>Where:</em>

E(n): is the energy of an electron in a particular orbit

R: is the Rydberg constant

h: is the Plank constant

c: is the speed of light

n: is a positive integer which corresponds to the number of the orbit

The ground state energy of a electron in the hydrogen atom is equal to -13,6 eV.

Bohr's Model aims to propose that the electron is restrictedly to occupy a certain region in the atom.    

Therefore, the conclusion of Bohr after observing emission spectrum lines is that "possible electron energy states are quantized within an atom", so the correct option is c.

I hope it helps you!

An ice cube is placed on a kitchen counter. Which best describes heat flow in this situation
Sauron [17]
<span>When an ice cube is placed on a kitchen counter, heat will flow from the ice cube to the counter, causing the molecules in the counter to move more slowly. The molecules of the counter move more slowly because the heat transferred to them from the ice has reduced their kinetic energy.</span>
