Answer: Option (1) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Compounds are the substances which contain two or more different elements.

Similarly, water is a compound as it is made up when two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom. Compounds can be broken down with the help of chemical reactions.

Hence, the statement water can be broken down by chemical means explains why water is classified  as a compound.

Some oxygen gas takes up a volume of 2.00 liters at 0.99 atm and 273 K. Its volume doubles and its temperature decreases to 137
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is : letter B. 0.25 atm

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the combined gas law:

    <u>P₁V₁</u>   =    <u>P₂V₂</u>

      T₁              T₂

Data

P1 = 0.99 atm  V1 = 2 l  T1 = 273K

P2 = ?               V2 = 4 l   T2 = 137K

Now, the clear P2 from the equation and we get

       P2 = P1V1T2 / T1V2

Substitution         P2 = (2 x 0.99 x 137)/(273 x 4)

       P2 = 271.26 / 1092

Result       P2 = 0.248 atm ≈ 0.25 atm

How is the energy of the universe conserved during the combustion of gasoline in a car engine?
Marianna [84]
In a car driven by a gasoline combustion engine, heat energy is quickly converted into kinetic energy which results in the motion of the car.

According to the law of the conservation of energy, energy cannot be destroyed or created. It is can only be transformed from one form to another.

While camping you light a small campfire, initiating the combustion of wood to produce heat and
Ksju [112]

Answer:

A. It is exothermic

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen present in air to produce carbon (iv) oxide and water as well release  heat and light energy.Combustion is an exothermic process.

An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The energy required to break bonds in the reactants is less than the energy required to form new bonds in the products in an exothermic reaction.

From the given options;

A. It is exothermic is determinable since the reaction is a combustion reaction

B. The bond making energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather it is composed of various substances.

C. It is endothermic. is wrong because combustion of wood is exothermic.

D. The bond breaking energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather is composed of many substances.
