Answer:

Four times the original amount if only one orange was used

Explanation:

We can assume that the oranges all have equal voltages. Connecting them in series will have an increasing effect on the voltage delivered. In our case, this will produce 4 times the voltage of the circuit when only one orange is used.

Whenever simple cells are connected in series, the voltages of the individual cells are added up to form the voltage of the whole circuit.

Let us assume that the voltage of each of the oranges is approximately 0.9 volts. The Voltage produced when the 4 oranges are joined in series is 0.9 + 0.9 + 0.9 + 0.9 = 3.6 volts

How does the suns energy contribute to the movement of water in the water cycle?

Troyanec [42]

Answer:Evaporation

Explanation:

The suns heat speeds the movement of water molecules, until the molecules move fast enough that they jolt out the surface of the water individually. Overtime the water gradually evaporates into water vapor.

When methane ( CH4 ) burns, it reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water. The unbalanced equation for this reac

slega [8]

<h2>Answer:</h2> $1.33*10^{-2}grams$

<h2>Explanations</h2>

The complete balanced equation for the given reaction is expressed as;

$CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)$

Given the following parameters

Mass of CH4 = 5.90×10^−3 g = 0.0059grams

Determine the moles of methane

$\begin{gathered} moles\text{ of CH}_4=\frac{mass}{molar\text{ mass}} \\ moles\text{ of CH}_4=\frac{0.0059}{16.04} \\ moles\text{ of CH}_4=0.000368moles \end{gathered}$

According to stoichimetry, 1 mole of methane produces 2 moles of water, hence the moles of water required will be:

$\begin{gathered} moles\text{ of H}_2O=\frac{2}{1}\times0.000368 \\ moles\text{ of H}_2O=0.000736moles \end{gathered}$

Determine the mass of water produced

$\begin{gathered} Mass\text{ of H}_2O=moles\times molar\text{ mass} \\ Mass\text{ of H}_2O=0.000736\times18.02 \\ Mass\text{ of H}_2O=0.0133grams=1.33\times10^{-2}grams \end{gathered}$

Therefore the mass of water produced from the complete combustion of 5.90×10−3 g of methane is 1.33 * 10^-2grams
