Answer:

Explanation:

The clock now has potential energy. When the alarm rings, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and sound energy.

Alarm clock runs due to the electrical energy. Due to the electric current, the electric motor rotates the blade. It means that the electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy.

The mechanical energy finally generates vibrations which cause sound.

Thus, energy transformation which takes place in alarm clock will follow the order-

Electrical to mechanical to sound.

the chemical compound C2F4 is used to make PTEE (Teflon). How manyC2F4 molecules are in 485 kilograms of this material?

monitta

Answer:

$molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we use the Avogadro's number to compute the molecules of C2F4 whose molar mass is 100 g/mol contained in a 485-kg sample as shown below:

$molecules=485kgC_2F_4*\frac{1000gC_2F_4}{1kgC_2F_4} *\frac{1molC_2F_4}{100gC_2F_4}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}molecules C_2F_4}{1molC_2F_4} \\\\molecules=2.92x10^{27}moleculesC_2F_4$

How much heat is absorbed in the complete reaction of 3.00 grams of SiO2 with excess carbon in the reaction SiO2(g) + 3C(s) → Si

defon

Answer:

31.24 kJ

Explanation:

SiO₂(g) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g) ΔH° = 624.7 kJ/mol

First we convert 3.00 grams of SiO₂ to moles, using its molar mass:

3.00 g SiO₂ ÷ 60.08 g/mol = 0.05 mol

Now we calculate the heat absorbed, using the given ΔH°:

If the complete reaction of 1 mol of SiO₂ absorbs 624.7 kJ, then with 0.05 mol:

0.05 mol * 624.7 kJ/mol = 31.24 kJ of heat would be absorbed.
