Answer:

The correct answer is C. element

Explanation:

The sample cannot be an element because an element - or elemental substance - cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Thus, it cannot be composed by differents types of atoms. For example, an element is carbon (C).

As the sample contains three types of atoms, it can be a compound, a molecule or a mixture, because they can be composed by different types of atoms - of different chemical elements. For example, the sample could contain the element carbon (C) combined with other elements, for example oxygen (O) or hydrogen (H), amoing others.

Answer:

The first electronic shell or energy level, having n= 1, called the K shell, is the closest to the nucleus.

Explanation:

In an atom, the sub atomic particles called electrons, revolve around the nucleus of the given atom at different energy levels, called shells.

The energy levels or the electronic shells are denoted by the principal quantum number (n) and has the following values n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; from the innermost shell to the outermost.

The electron shells are also labelled by the alphabets, K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q, from the innermost shell to the outermost.

Thus the first electronic shell having n= 1, called K shell, is the lowest energy level and is present closest to the nucleus.

Whereas, the last electronic shell having n =7, called Q shell, is the highest energy level and is farthest from the nucleus.

Answer:

"Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of a number of gases that are transparent to the visible light falling on the Earth from the Sun, but absorb the infra-red radiation (heat) emitted by the warm surface of the Earth, preventing its loss into space. During the geological history of the Earth the level of atmospheric CO2 has varied considerably and this has had an impact on the global temperature. A significant amount of this atmospheric carbon was sequestered or (removed from the atmosphere) and turned into inert material (coal, and oil) typically 300-360 Million years ago. All of the global ecosystems and species have adapted to a lower level of atmospheric CO2 and critically, human civilisation has also grown since that period. Since the industrial revolution humans have been burning sequestered CO2 in the form of coal, oil, and natural gas which has the result of releasing energy but also releases CO2 back into the atmosphere".

29. If a walnut is burned in a

harkovskaia [24]

Energy were released from the walnut, q = 1,673.6 J

<h3>Equation :</h3>

To find the energy using formula,

q = mcΔt

where,

q is charge

m is mass

c is specific heat of water

Δt is change in temperature

So, given

t₁ = 50°C

t₂ = 60°C

m = 40g

c = 4.184 J/g

Now putting the values known,

We get,

q = mc(t₂ - t₁)

q = 40g x 4.184 J/g x (60 - 50)

q = 167.36 J x 10

q = 1,673.6 J

<h3>What is heat energy?</h3>

Heat is the thermal energy that is transferred when two systems with different surface temperatures come into contact. Heat is denoted by the letters q or Q and is measured in Joules.
