Answer:
A hot air balloon uses a burner to heat up the air inside the balloon. The burner is usually fueled by liquid propane. The burner mixes the fuel with air and ignites the mixture, which creates a flame directly underneath the bottom opening of the hot air balloon. Once the air inside the balloon begins to get warm, the balloon will rise. The pilot controls the balloon’s altitude by releasing hot air from a vent at the top of the balloon, releasing the warmer air causes the balloon to descend.
Explanation:
Among many factors, the concentration of reactant is also responsible for effecting the rate of reaction. And it is found that the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the rate of reaction.
Explanation:
Higher concentration means greater number of reactants in the system. Greater the number greater will be the probability of reactants to colloid. And according to collision theory reactants must colloid with optimum kinetic energy and orientation. So, in higher concentrated system the rate of collisions increases with increasing the rate of reaction.
Result:
Option <span>A is correct answer. (The increased concentration increases the number of collisions between molecules.)</span>
<span>Cracking of hydrocarbons involves thermal decomposition.
This means that large hydrocarbon molecules break into
smaller molecules when they are heated. The <span>hydrocarbons
</span>are boiled and the <span>hydrocarbon gases </span>are either
mixed with steam and heated to a very high temperature or
passed over a hot <span>powdered </span>aluminium oxide catalyst.
The catalyst works by providing the <span>hydrocarbon gases
</span>with a convenient surface for the cracking to take place.</span>
<span>For example, decane (an alkane with 10 carbons)
can be cracked to produce octane and ethene.</span>
decane<span> octane + ethene.
<span>C10H22</span>(g) <span>C8H18</span>(g) + C2<span>H4</span>(g)</span>
<span>Octane is used as petrol.
Ethene is used in the manufacture of polymers.</span>
<span>Cracking an alkane produces a smaller alkane plus an alkene.
If you add up the number of hydrogen atoms in the
above reaction, you will see that there are 22 on each side.
An alkene is produced because the original alkane does
<span>not </span>have enough hydrogen atoms to produce two more<span> alkanes</span>.</span>

Answer:
The half-life of Plutonium 239 (Pu 239) is 24,100 years.
Explanation:
Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value. This means that in 241000 years, 100g of Pu 239 would be reduced to 50g.
