<h3>Exothermic reactions </h3>

These are reactions that transfer energy to the surroundings (ie the energy exits from the reaction, hence the name exothermic). The energy is usually transferred as heat energy, causing the reaction mixture and its surroundings to become hotter. A thermometer is used to detect the temperature increase.

Examples:

Combustion

Neutralisation between acids and alkali

<h3>Endothermic reactions </h3>

These are reactions that take in energy from the surroundings (ie energy enters the reaction, which will help you to remember the name endothermic). The energy is usually transferred as heat energy, causing the reaction mixture and its surroundings to become colder. A thermometer is used to detect the temperature decrease.

Example:

Electrolysis

in heating a kettle of water on an electric stove, 3.34×10^3 J of thermal energy was provided by the element of the stove. yet,
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element is approximately 82.186%

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The thermal energy provided by the stove element, H_{supplied} = 3.34 × 10³ J

The amount thermal energy gained by the kettle, H_{absorbed}  = 5.95 × 10² J

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element in heating the kettle of water, η%, is given as follows;

\eta \% = \dfrac{H_{supplied} - H_{absorbed} }{H_{supplied}}  \times 100

Therefore, we get;

\eta \% = \dfrac{3.34 \times 10^3 - 5.95 \times 10^2}{3.34 \times 10^3}  \times 100 = \dfrac{549}{668} \times 100 \approx 82.186 \%

The percentage efficiency of the electrical element, η% ≈ 82.186%.

Which process was responsible for producing gases in the early atmosphere?
andre [41]

Answer: The early atmosphere

Explanation: Its early atmosphere was probably formed from the gases given out by volcanoes. It is believed that there was intense volcanic activity for the first billion years of the Earth's existence. The early atmosphere was probably mostly carbon dioxide, with little or no oxygen.

A sample of gas is held at 1000C at a volume of 20 L. If the volume is increased to 40 L, what is the new temperature of the gas
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The new temperature will be 2546 K or 2273 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial temperature = 1000 °C =1273 K

The volume = 20L

The volume increases to 40 L

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 1273 K

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 40L

⇒with T2 = the new temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

20L/ 1273 K = 40L / T2

T2 = 40L / (20L/1273K)

T2 = 2546 K

The new temperature will be 2546 K

This is 2546-273 = 2273 °C

Since the volume is doubled, the temperature is doubled as well
