Nuclear fission is a process by which the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei, known as fission products. The fission of heavy elements is an exothermic reaction, and huge amounts of energy are released in the process.

Answer:

The mechanical energy produced on burning fossil fuels is transformed into chemical energy stored in carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

When fossil fuels are burnt, mechanical energy is produced. Remember that according to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another. Hence the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt for industrial use, heating of homes, electricity generation , cooking etc the mechanical energy produced is not 'lost'. It must be transformed in to another form of energy.

In the image the arrow G----> C, shows the mechanical energy produced when fossil fuels are burnt are stored as chemical energy in CO2 bonds. CO2 is found in the atmosphere, hence the arrow point upwards from the source towards the atmosphere (C is the atmospheric reservoir of CO2). The energy is subsequently used by producers to produce chemical energy stored in food.

All the following involve an increase in entropy except O most endothermic reactions O sublimation O vaporization O combustion
daser333 [38]

Answer:

most endothermic reactions

Explanation:

In endothermic reactions, the entropy of the environment decreases.

The entropy is the measure of the disorder of a specific system.

An endothermic reaction is every chemical reaction in which energy is absorbed.

In a comparison of an endodermic reaction in which energy is released in light or heat form.

Atoms that are sp^2 hybridized can form pi bond(s). b. 2
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pi bonds are formed using p orbitals. Atoms that have p orbitals have 3 of them. In an sp² hybridized atom, only 2 of the 3 p orbitals are being used in the sp² orbitals, leaving one p orbital free for pi bonding. Therefore, only one pi bond can be formed to an sp² hybridized atom.
