The burning of fossil fuels produces what kind of energy​

Chemistry
1 answer:
leva [86]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When fossil fuels are burned carbon and hydrogen react with oxygen in air to carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). During this reaction heat is released which further amplifies the reaction. Electricity is generated by transforming mechanical energy (heat) to electrical energy in a turbine or generator.

In the lab, you are given a metal ball. You measure the mass of the ball to be 28 g. You place the ball in a graduated cylinder
KIM [24]

Answer:

Density = 8.75ml

Explanation:

Density = Mass / Volume

In this problem ...

Mass = 28 grams

Volume = 31.4ml - 28.2ml = 32ml (water displacement also)

∴Density = mass /volume = 28g/32ml = 8.75g/ml

Which is responsible for the formation of rust on metals?(1 point)
Rainbow [258]

The correct answers about rusting, air pollution and products of water with rock are:

Option A. oxidation

Option D. Pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain.

Option B. clay minerals and calcium carbonate

<h3>What is rusting?</h3>

Rusting is the process by which a metal especially reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and water vapor to form a hydrated oxide of the metal known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide. This is known as rust.

The process is an oxidation process; option A.

<h3>How does air pollution impact chemical weathering?</h3>

Air pollution is the presence of substances in air known as pollutants which makes the air impure.

Air pollution impact chemical weathering  as the pollutants mix with air and water to make acid rain which weathers rocks; option D.

<h3>What products are produced when water reacts with sodium in rocks?</h3>

The reaction of water with sodium in rocks result in the formation of clay minerals and calcium carbonate also as limestone, marble or chalk; option B.

In conclusion, the presence of pollutants in air results in acid rain and hence rock weathering.

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O)? For example if th
oee [108]

Given :

Mass of oxygen containing carbon monoxide (CO) is 2.666 gram .

To Find :

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O) .

Solution :

By law of constant composition , a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio (by mass) and does not depend on its source and method of preparation.

So , volume of solution does not matter .

Moles of oxygen , n=\dfrac{2.666}{16}=0.167\ mole .

Now , molecule of CO contains 1 mole of C .

So , moles of C is also 0.167 mole .

Mass of carbon , m=12\times 0.167=2\ g .

Therefore , mass of carbon is 2 grams .

Hence , this is the required solution .

What happened during the fusion reaction shown?
NARA [144]

Answer:

Nuclear Fusion reactions power the Sun and other stars. In a fusion reaction, two light nuclei merge to form a single heavier nucleus.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a process in which atomic nuclei are fused together to form heavier nuclei. ... Like fission, nuclear fusion can also transmute one element into another. For example, hydrogen nuclei fuse in stars to form the element helium.
