Answer is: (2) Chemical energy is converted to electrical energy.
An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.
In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).
Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.
Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).
The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.
In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.
Answer:
Ionic Bonding: The formation of an Ionic bond is the result of the transfer of one or more electrons from a metal onto a non-metal.
Covalent Bonding: Bonding between non-metals consists of two electrons shared between two atoms.
Explanation:
Answer: the percent composition of carbon in heptane is 83.9%
Explanation:
<u>1) Atomic masses of the atoms:</u>
<u>2) Molar mass of heptane:</u>
- C₇H₁₆: 7 × 12.01 g/mol + 16×1.008 g/mol = 100.2 g/mol
<u>3) Mass of carbon in one mole of heptane:</u>
- C₇: 7 × 12.01 g/mol = 84.07 g/mol
<u>3) Percent composition of carbon:</u>
- % = (mass in grams of C) / (mass in grams of C₇H₁₆) × 100 =
= (84.07 g/ 100.2 g) × 100 = 83.9% ← answer
