When water is released from a dam, what happens?

Chemistry
1 answer:
malfutka [58]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy

Explanation:

Once a river is dammed it changes its physical and chemical structure. Damming also changes the biological communities associated with the river and its floodplain. When water is kept behind dams, seasonal flow patterns are usually lost.

A hydroelectric dam converts the potential energy stored in a water reservoir behind a dam to mechanical energy—mechanical energy is also known as kinetic energy. As the water flows down through the dam its kinetic energy is used to turn a turbine.

Name the mineral group for each of the following minerals: Group of answer choices Kyanite (Al2SiO5) Ilmenite (FeTiO3) Rhodochro
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Kyanite (Al2SiO5) - silicate

Ilmenite (FeTiO3) - Oxides

Rhodochrosite (MnCO3) - carbonate

Celestite (SrSO4) - sulphate

Chalcocite (Cu2S) -  sulphide

Explanation:

Minerals are classified according to their chemical composition. For example those that hve the CO32- ion are called carbonates and those with the SO42- ion are called sulphates while the ones with S2- ion are called sulphides

Consider the following reaction where K. = 154 at 298 K: 2NO(g) + Brz(9) 2NOBr(g) A reaction mixture was found to contain 2.69x1
bekas [8.4K]

Explanation:

2NO(g) + Br_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NOBr(g)

Equilibrium constant of reaction = K=154

Concentration of NO = [NO]=\frac{2.69\times 10^{-2} mol}{1 L}=2.69\times 10^{-2} M

Concentration of bromine gas = [Br_2]=\frac{3.85\times 10^{-2} mol}{1 L}=3.85\times 10^{-2} M

Concentration of NOBr gas = [Br_2]=\frac{9.56\times 10^{-2} mol}{1 L}=9.56\times 10^{-2} M

The reaction quotient is given as:

Q=\frac{[NOBr]^2}{[NO]^2[Br_2]}=\frac{(9.56\times 10^{-2} M)^2}{(2.69\times 10^{-2} M)^2\times 3.85\times 10^{-2} M}

Q=328.06

Q>K

The reaction will go in backward direction in order to achieve an equilibrium state.

1. In order to reach equilibrium NOBr (g) must be produced.  False

2. In order to reach equilibrium K must decrease. False

3. In order to reach equilibrium NO must be produced. True

4. Q. is less than K . False

5. The reaction is at equilibrium. No further reaction will occur. False

In a chemical equation, changing the subscript in a chemical formula for a substance changes what aspect?
Citrus2011 [14]
The subscript in a chemical formula is the number written next to the element at the bottom part. For example, the chemical formula of water is H₂O. The subscript of H is 2, while the subscript of O is 1. The subscript represents the number of a certain element in one particle of the compound. So, if you change the subscript, you also change the number of a certain element per compound. In other words, you change the ratio.
