Define potential energy and then explain what factors or variables cause potential energy to change

Chemistry
1 answer:
Oliga [24]4 years ago
5 0
potential energy:
the energy possessed by a body by virtue by its position relative to others stresses within itself electric charge and other factors.
the formula for potential energy is "PE=mgh". Gravitational pull causes potential energy go change.

What how many degrees variation is there between the highest temperatures and lowest temperatures on the moon? about 550ºC about
kirill [66]

Answer:

about 310ºC

Explanation:

The Moon is the natural satellite of the Earth.

The Moon orbits around the Earth in approximately 27 days, and its average distance from the Earth is about 380,000 km.

Moreover, the mass of the Moon is 7.35\cdot 10^{22}kg.

The Moon has no water on its surface and no atmosphere: due to the lack of atmosphere, heat coming from Solar radiation is not retained near the surface. Moreover, the Moon orbits around the Earth keeping one face always towards it, so every location on the Moon has 13 consecutive days of daylight followed by 13 days of darkness.

As a result, there is a large thermic excursion between the maximum and minimum temperature on the Moon. In particular, we have:

- Minimum temperature: -173 degrees Celsius

- Maximum temperature: +127 degrees Celsius

So this difference is about

\Delta T = 127-(-173)=300^{\circ}C

So, about 310ºC.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 18 grams of liquid water by 25 C?
DENIUS [597]

Since the molecular weight of water is about 18 g/mol, you have about 1 mol of water. So, now we know that it takes approximately 46.2 kJ of heat energy to warm 18.02g of water from 25C to 100C and then to vaporize it into steam. Hopefully this helped!

What is the pOH of a solution that has an H+=7.7x10^-7 M
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Step 1

The question is based on the concept of PH and pOH calculations.

pH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydronium Ion concentration.

while pOH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydroxide ion concentration of the solution.

Step 2

[H+] = 7.7*10-7  M  

pH = -log[H+]  

    = -log ( 7.7*10-7 )

     = 6.12

Step 3

pOH = 14 - pH

   = 14 - 6.11

  = 7.89

MnO2+ 4HCL--->MnCl2+Cl2+2H2O:
Rainbow [258]
<span>Which reagent will be used up first? Thee answer is HCl.
We need to convert the amounts of the reactants into moles to see the limiting reactant.

48.2 g HCl ( 1 mol / 36.46 g) = 1.32 mol HCl

Since the ration is 1:4 then the limiting reactant is HCl. To react all of the MnO2 we need 3.44 mol HCl.

</span><span>How many grams of Cl2 will be produced? 
</span>We use the amount of limiting reactant since it will be used up first.

1.32 mol HCl (1 mol Cl2 / 4 mol HCl) ( 70.9 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2) =23.4 g CL2
