Answer:

The sun uses nuclear fusion reactions to generate heat.

Explanation:

It is true from the given choices that the sun uses nuclear fusion reactions to generate heat.

The heat that accompanies nuclear fusion reactions is very huge. In fact this is the source of energy for the whole solar system.

During a nuclear fusion reaction, small atomic nuclei combines to form larger ones.

This combination results in a series of chain reactions that releases energy.

Why do convection currents occur?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.

Why does water appear blue?
ICE Princess25 [194]
B.
Because if you were to be in a room with orange lights the water would appear orange and glowing. Same thing with other colors this is because the sun rays pass through the atmosphere reflecting from a pure white light to a lighter blue and reflecting off of the waters surface.

According to the law of conservation of matter, atoms cannot be created or destroyed during a chemical reaction. what do you thi
Zarrin [17]

The word atom comes from the Greek atomos which means indivisible, indivisible (excepted in the nuclear reactions). It was therefore perfectly suited to the concept of atom when it was developed by chemists in the early nineteenth century, ie as the smallest part of a pure body.

So the atom of aluminum will remain unchanged, whatever the reaction it will undergo, it is only its molecular form that will change.

How many
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

8 neutrons

A is the number of neutrons plus protons in the nucleus. However, we already know that there are 7 protons. Therefore, there must be 8 neutrons in the nucleus to add up to 15. Table 3.

Element Symbol Number of Neutrons

carbon 146C 8

nitrogen 147N 7

157N 8

oxygen 168O 8

Using standard heats of formation, calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction. 2NH3(g) 3N2O(g)4N2(g) 3H2O
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: \Delta H^{0} = -879.15 kJ/mol

Explanation: <u>Heats</u> <u>of</u> <u>formation</u> is the amount of heat necessary to create 1 mol of a compound from its molecular constituents. The basic conditions the substance is formed is at standard conditions: 1 atm and 25°C. Each compound has its own heat of formation per mol of compound (kJ/mol), but to an element is assigned a value of zero.

<u>Standard</u> <u>Enthalpy</u> <u>Change</u> is defined as the heat absorbed or released when a reaction takes place. It can be positive or negative, which means reaction is endothermic or exothermic, respectively.

Enthalpy change is calculated as the difference between the sum of heat formation of products and the sum of heat formation of the reactants:

\Delta H^{0}=\Sigma H^{0}_{f}_{(products)}-\Sigma H^{0}_{f}_{(reactants)}

For the reaction

   2NH₃   +      3N₂O   →      4N₂    +     3H₂O

2(-46.2)   +     3(82.05)      4(0)    +    3(-241.8)

\Delta H^{0}=3(-241.8)-[ 2(-46.2)+3(82.05)]

\Delta H^{0}=-725.4-153.75

\Delta H^{0}=-879.15

<u>The standard enthalpy change for the reaction is </u>\Delta H^{0}=-879.15<u> kJ</u>
