Answer:
Nuclear power comes from nuclear fission
Nuclear power plants use heat produced during nuclear fission to heat water. In nuclear fission, atoms are split apart to form smaller atoms, releasing energy. Fission takes place inside the reactor of a nuclear power plan
Explanation:
Propanol molecular formula is C₃H₇OH
the balanced reaction for combustion of propanol is as follows;
2C₃H₇OH + 9O₂ --> 6CO₂ + 8H₂O
Molar ratio of reactants to products can be found out by the stoichiometry.
By looking at the coefficients of reactants and products in the balanced reaction equation, molar ratio can determined.
Therefore the molar ratio of propanol to CO₂ is 2:6, simplified --> 1:3
Answer:
A. to determine the efficiency of the reaction
Explanation:
- Percentage is the ratio of the actual yield to theoretical yield as a percentage. It is calculated by dividing the actual yield by theoretical yield then multiplying by 100%.
- Calculation of percentage yield is important as it helps in the determination of efficiency of a reaction. For example in most industries for the purpose of making the most product with the least waste.
- Additionally, calculating the percentage yield helps in determining other products that may be formed during the reactions.
Answer:
Conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (chemo mechanical energy)
In the state of rest, the rubber is a tangled mass of long chained cross-linked polymer that due to their disorderliness are in a state of increased entropy. By pulling on the polymer, the applied kinetic energy stretches the polymer into straight chains, giving them order and reducing their entropy. The stretched rubber then has energy stored in the form of chemo mechanical energy which is a form of potential energy
Conversion of the stored potential energy in the stretched to kinetic energy
By remaining in a stretched condition, the rubber is in a state of high potential energy, when the force holding the rubber in place is removed, due to the laws of thermodynamics, the polymers in the rubber curls back to their state of "random" tangled mass releasing the stored potential energy in the process and doing work such as moving items placed in the rubber's path of motion such as an object that has weight, w then takes up the kinetic energy 1/2×m×v² which can can result in the flight of the object.
