How does increasing and decreasing the temperature affect the kinetic energy of molecules? How does this impact heat

Chemistry

coldgirl [10]3 years ago

Answer: As the temperature of a molecular system increases, the kinetic energy of molecules also increase. Also as the temperature of a molecular system decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules will also decrease.

Explanation:

James Clerk Maxwell developed the kinetic-molecular theory (KMT) of gases. In this theoey, five assumptions concerning an ideal gas was made. One of the them was that," the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the temperature of the gas". This simply means that a s the temperature of a molecular system increases, the kinetic energy of molecules also increase. Also as the temperature of a molecular system decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules will also decrease.

Also another scientist known as Rudolf Clausius incorporated energy into the kinetic theory. He proposed that heat is a form of energy that affects the temperature of matter by changing the motion of molecules in matter.

Heat is defined as the flow of energy which is caused by difference in temperature.

In conclusion, when the temperature of a system is increased, the collision of the molecules with one another and the walls of their container increases as more molecules gain more heat energy at higher temperature. While as the temperature of the system decreases, the collision of the molecules will also decrease as molecules lose heat energy at lower temperature.

C(s) + S8(s) → CS2(l)
Vanyuwa [196]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>4C(s) + S8(s) → 4CS2(l)

We are given the amount of carbon and sulfur to be used in the reaction. We need to determine first the limiting reactant to be able to solve this correctly.

</span>7.70 g C ( 1 mol / 12.01 g) =0.64 mol C
19.7 g S8 ( 1 mol / 256.48 g) = 0.08 mol S8

The limiting reactant would be S8. We use this amount to calculate.

0.08 mol S8 ( 4 mol CS2 / 1 mol S8 ) ( 256.48 g / 1 mol ) = 78.8 g CS2

How does a volcano form?
stealth61 [152]
A volcano is formed when magma (Lava) spews up from deep within the earth. After each eruption the Volcano gets bigger and bigger, so basically after periods of time the volcano will get larger. Lava will rise in cracks in the earth or weak spots in the earths crust. The pressure is relieved thus resulting in a volcanic eruptions it forms the new crust and then eventually builds up in that spot making a volcano. They also form in places called hot spots and various other places.

Determine % yield if a student obtains 45 g of product in an experiment and the theoretical amount is determined to be 50 g. *
ycow [4]

Answer:

90%

Explanation:

Percentage yield = ?

Theoretical yield = 50g

Actual yield = 45g

To calculate the percentage yield of a compound, we'll have to use the formula of percentage yield which is the ratio between the actual yield to theoretical multiplied by 100

Percentage yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100

Percentage yield = (45 / 50) × 100

Percentage yield = 0.9 × 100

Percentage yield = 90%

The percentage yield of the substance is 90%
