Explanation:

Both conduction and convection are both forms of heat transfer from one place to another.

In conduction, there must be contact between two bodies for the process to take place but in convection, the matter moves to transfer heat.
Conduction mostly occurs in solid substances whereas convection occurs mostly in fluids.
Heat transfer in conduction is quite slow compared to convection which is much faster.

Example of conduction is heating of iron pot when cooking

Example of convection is the refrigerating system.

Mexican Texas is the historiographical name used to refer to the era of Texan history between 1821 and 1836, when it was part of Mexico. Mexico gained independence from Spain in 1821 in its war ofindependence. Initially, Mexican Texas operated very similarly to Spanish Texas.

if you burn a piece of wood you will feel heat see water vapor and be left with ashes how come the matter was not destroyed

Elanso [62]

The matter wasn't destroyed because albert einsteins theory of the black hole says that matter cannot be destroyed if it is burned into the same color of a black hole. this eqation proves my thesis:

A mixture of0.161 moles of C is reacted with 0.117 moles of O2 in a sealed, 10.0 L-vessel at 500.0 K, producing a mixture of CO

labwork [276]

Answer:

number of moles of CO2 is 0.054

number of moles of CO is 0.107

number of moles of O2 remaining is 0.01 mole

mole fraction of CO is 0.63

Explanation:

Firstly, we write the equation of reaction;

3C(s) +2O2(g) → CO2(g) +2CO(g)

Now, we proceed.

From the written equation, we can deduce that

3 mol C = 2 mol O2 = 1 mol CO2 = 2 mol CO

No of mol of C reacted = 0.161 mol

limiting reactant according to the question is Carbon

a. no of mol of CO2 formed = 0.161*1/3 = 0.054 moles ( no of moles of CO2 formed is one-third of no of moles of carbon reacted. This is obtainable from their mole ratio 1:3)

b. no of mol of CO formed = 0.161*2/3 = 0.107 mol

c. no of mol of O2 remaining = 0.117 - (0.151*2/3) = 0.117-0.107 = 0.01 mole

d. mole fraction of CO = no of mol of CO/Total number of moles

= 0.107/(0.107+0.054+0.01)

= 0.625730994152 which is approximately 0.63
