Answer:
chemical energy into thermal energy
Explanation:
The reaction taking place is as follows
2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ = 4CO₂ + 2H₂O + Heat
In this reaction bonds present in acetylene is broken and new bond present in water and carbon dioxide are formed . In the whole process of bond breaking and bond formation , there is net loss of energy and that energy is released as heat energy .
Thus we can say that in the whole process , chemical energy is converted into heat energy .
Anthony’s because it explains way more
Positron emission = emission of a positron and a neutrino when a
proton is convert into a neutron. The total number of particles in the
nucleus doesn't change, -1 proton +1 neutron
It's a spontaneous reaction for some nucleus.
eg:
Positron = e+
Neutrino=ve
O-15 --> N-15 + e+ +ve
Electron
capture= A nucleus absorb an electron while a proton is convert in a
neutron and emit a neutrino. The total number of particles in the
nucleus doesn't change, -1 proton +1 neutron
eg:
Al-26 +e- --> Mg-26 + ve
Electron
capture and positron emission are two mechanisms to explain the decay
of some unstable isotopes. Electron capture is usually observed when the
energy difference between the initial and final state is low. Mainly
because of the larger amount of kinetic energy need for the expulsion
two particles with the positron emission mechanism.
