Answer: check for a change in total mass during a reaction.

According to the law of conservation of mass during a chemical change the total mass of the products remains equal to the total mass of the reactants: there is not change in the total mass.

During nuclear reactions the mass can change due to the huge release of energy which proceeds from mass change, as per the famous equation ΔE =Δm. c^2.

What are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.

Liquids do not have the energy to overcome the ___ and move to the gaseous state.
Ugo [173]

Answer - Inter-molecular attractions

Explanation-

As we know everything around us is made up of matter that means everything has molecules as their basic structure. The state of anything is decided by the spaces between the molecules.

The state of the objects that have strong inter-molecular attractions a solid and gradually the lesser will be in state of liquid and gas. The attraction between the molecules is overcome only when a certain amount of energy is provided from outside.
