Answer: The activation energy is 10 kJ and the reaction is exothermic.

Explanation: Exothermic reactions are those in which heat is released and thus the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.

Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed and thus the energy of products is more than the energy of reactants.

Activation energy is the extra amount of energy required by the reactants to cross the energy barrier to convert to products.

Given : Energy of reactants = 40kJ

Energy of activation: (50-40)=10 kJ

Energy of products = 50 kJ

Energy of products = 15 kJ

Thus Energy of products (15kJ) < Energy of reactants(40kJ), the reaction is exothermic as energy has been lost to surroundings in the form of heat.

Temperature cloud cover and thunder are all examples of
Umnica [9.8K]

Temperature, cloud cover and thunder are all examples of weather.  

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Weather is described as conditions that prevail for a short period of time and the above-mentioned factors change variably throughout the day. Cloud cover simply describes the clouds coverage in the sky. It is one factor that is used to describe weather conditions since the type of clouds indicates prevailing weather.

For example, the presence of cirrus means there will be a storm in 24 to 48 hours. Weather conditions characterized by thunder is said to be stormy and it also has other conditions such as lightning, wind and fast rain with heavy raindrops. Temperature affects the warmness and coldness of the air and its movement. Moreover, it also affects all other aspects of weather conditions.
