What is meant by "elastic collisions"?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Leokris [45]3 years ago
5 0

Elastic collisions meant that there will be no change in the total momentum of the system and surrounding after collision.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Collision is the process where two or more bodies hit each other. So when they hit each other, transfer of energy will be occurring between them. In other words, the momentum can be changed after the collision. There are two kinds of collision.

  • elastic collision
  • inelastic collision

The elastic collision are those which will not undergo any change in the total momentum after collision. This means that the sum of momentum of the objects before collision will be equal to the sum of momentum of the objects after collision. Thus, there will be no change in the total momentum of the object after collision in case of elastic collision.

Olin [163]
When reversing a given reaction, we simply change the sign of the standard enthalpy change value. Therefore, the reaction will become:
H₂O → H₂ + 0.5O₂, ΔH = 286kJ
This is because if a certain amount of energy is released when a reaction occurs, the same amount of energy must be supplied for the reaction to occur in the reverse direction.

statuscvo [17]

Answer is: D. Neon is the most stable element because its highest occupied energy level is filled.

Neon (symbol: Ne) is an element (noble gas) with atomic number 10, which means it has 10 protons and 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of neon atom: ₁₀Ne 1s²2s²2p⁶.

Noble gases are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.
