Answer:

Coal contains chemical potential energy

Explanation:

Chemical species are known to contain chemical energy. Chemical energy is contained in chemical bonds in a chemical substance.

Since energy can neither be created nor destroyed, energy contained in chemical bonds can be transformed from one form to another. Coal contains chemical energy.

One of the ways of generating electricity is the combination of fossil fuels. This involves the conversion of chemical energy to heat energy. The steam produced is used to turn a turbine. The turning off the turbine implies a conversion of heat to mechanical energy. The turning of the turbine now produces electrical energy.

Explain why the amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid does not participate in the reaction
lubasha [3.4K]

This is because amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid is an aniline and is less electrophilic than an alkyl amine.

<h3>What is an Aniline?</h3>

This is an aromatic amine which consists of a phenyl group attached to an amino group.

The amino group of p-aminobenzoic acid being an aniline makes it less electrophilic which is why an alkyl amine participates in the reaction instead.

200 g of solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are dissolved in 750 mL of water. What is the concentration of this solution?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

6.67 M

Explanation:

Molarity = \frac{mol}{L}

<em>Convert 200g NaOH to moles. Convert 750 mL to L.</em>

200 g NaOH x (1 mol/39.998 g) = 5.00025... mol NaOH

750 mL x (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.750 L

<em>Substitute values into the equation.</em>

Molarity = \frac{5.00025}{0.750}

Molarity = 6.667... M

Molarity = 6.67 M
