Ainat [17]

Answer:

a) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less because the mass was reduced

b)the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since

c) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since the reaction will eventually go to completion

d) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be more.

Explanation:

a) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less because the mass was reduced from 110.3 to 101.3g

b)the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since some marshmallow fell off before the reaction

c) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be less since the reaction will eventually go to completion

d) the final kilocalories per gram for food will be more since the thermometer that got stuck will add to the value of final kilocalories per gram

extremely hot.When a student went to open the car doo , he burned his finger. What two forms of energy were responsible for the
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

radiation and conduction

Explanation:

During a warm summer day, a car became extremely hot. When a student went to open the car door, he burned his fingers. What two forms of energy were responsible for the student burning his fingers?

Solution:

Heat is the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object. For heat transfer to occur, there have to be a difference in temperature between two objects.  

Heat can be transferred in three ways: by conduction, by convection, and by radiation.

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between bodies through direct contact. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through the movement of heat in a liquid or gas. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through thermal emission by electromagnetic waves.

During a warm summer day, The sun makes the car to become hot through energy transfer from the sun to the car. When the student touch the car, there is heat transfer as a result of conduction.

Write the equation for the reaction described: A solid metal oxide, Ag2O, and hydrogen are the products of the reaction between
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H

Explanation:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H is the equation of the reaction between metal and steam. Silver reacts with water (steam) forming silver oxide and hydrogen gas. When the metals react with steam it produces the solid metal oxide and hydrogen gas. On the surface o metals, a protective layer of aluminium oxide is formed that keeps water away from the metal so we can say that silver oxide and hydrogen are formed from the reaction of silver metal and steam.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

compound

Explanation:

A molecule is the smallest particle in a chemical element or compound that has the chemical properties of that element or compound. Molecules are made up of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons among atoms.

A solution of acetic acid and water contains 205.0 g L-1 of acetic acid and 820.0 g L-1 of water. Compute the density of the sol
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

\rho_t=1025000 gmL^{-1}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Density of acetic acid \rho_a=205 gL^{-1}

Density of Water \rho_w=820 gL^{-1}

Generally the equation for Solution Density is mathematically given by

\rho_t= \rho_w+\rho_a

\rho_t=205+820

\rho_t=1025 gL^{-1}

\rho_t=1025000 gmL^{-1}
