In many environments, the temperature of the ground and the air right above the ground are both very similar in the middle of th

e night. Engineers have proposed developing a portable pop-up hammock that would allow people to sleep suspended in the air above the ground in emergencies. It will take time and money to develop a really lightweight, easy to collapse, low cost design. Before they invest the resources to do this, explain whether what you learned about energy transfer makes this an idea worth pursuing. Would suspending a person in a hammock, wrapped in one of the blankets you chose above, decrease the amount of temperature change compared to sleeping directly on the ground with one of these blankets? Explain.

Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how
telo118 [61]

Question:

Sulfuric acid was once produced through the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water. Sulfur trioxide can form through the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas. When nitrogen monoxide gas is added to the system, the reaction speeds up significantly because it proceeds through the following steps:

equations

Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how you know it is the catalyst, and describe how it increases the rate of the reaction.

Answer:

NO

It is present but not consumed

NO Lowers the activation energy of the reaction

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that is present in a chemical reaction and enables the reaction to occur at a faster rte but does not take part n the reaction

Therefore, whereby NO is not consumed, it is the catalyst

It functions by lowering the activation energy

Explain how muscles and bones work together to help bend the arm
vitfil [10]

Answer:

By contracting, muscles pull on bones and allow the body to move. ... For example, the biceps and triceps muscles work together to allow you to bend and straighten your elbow. When you want to bend your elbow, your biceps muscle contracts (Figure below), and, at the same time, the triceps muscle relaxes.

When 125.0 g of ethylene (C2H4) burns in 60.0 grams of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water, how many grams of CO2 are formed
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

             66 g of CO₂

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Reaction is as follow,

                             C₂H₂  +  5/2 O₂    →    2 CO₂  +  H₂O

Or,

                             2 C₂H₂  +  5 O₂    →    4 CO₂  +  2 H₂O    -------  (1)

Step 1: Find out the limiting reagent as;

According to Equation 1,

            56.1 g (2 mole) C₂H₂ reacts with  =  160 g (5 moles) of O₂

So,

                  125 g of C₂H₂ will react with  =  X g of O₂

Solving for X,

                      X =  (125 g × 160 g) ÷ 56.1 g

                      X =  356.5 g of O₂

It means for total combustion of Ethylene we require 356.5 g of O₂, but we are only provided with 60.0 g of O₂. Therefore, O₂ is the limiting reagent and will control the yield.

Step 2: Calculate Amount of CO₂ produced as;

According to Equation 1,

              160 g (5 mole) O₂ produces  =  176 g (4 moles) of CO₂

So,

                  60.0 g of O₂ will produce  =  X g of CO₂

Solving for X,

                      X =  (60.0 g × 176 g) ÷ 160 g

                      X =  66 g of CO₂

5<br> - HCN +<br> CuSO4 →<br> Type of reaction
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

CuSO_{4}+2HCN\rightarrow Cu(CN)_{2}+H_{2}SO_{4}

Explanation:

The valancy of Cu = +2

SO4 = -2

CN = -1

H =+1

So when HCN and CuSO4 react Cu(CN)2 and H2SO4 are formed.

Cu(CN)2 formation :

2 CN = 2 x -1  = -2

Its should attach to +2 charge atom which is Cu

So 1 Cu and 2 CN = Cu(CN)2

Similary,

H2SO4 formation:

SO4 = -2 charge

It require +2 charge so need two H+

2 H = 2x1 = +2 charge

Hence , 1 SO4 and 2 H combine to form H2SO4

<u><em>Law of conservation of mass:</em></u><em> It states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction.</em>

<em>Total mass of the reactant must be equal to total mass of product.</em>

<u>Only those equations are balanced which follows law of conservation of mass </u>

Count total number of atoms in the reactant and product .

The number of atoms in the product = The number of atoms in the reactant

In the given equation:

CuSO_{4}+2HCN\rightarrow Cu(CN)_{2}+H_{2}SO_{4}

Reactant are 2HCN and CuSO4

atoms of H = 1x2=2 , C=1x2=2  , N=1x2=2 , Cu = 1, S = 1 ,O =4

Products: Cu(CN)2 and H2SO4

atoms of H =2 , S=1 , O=4 ,C = 2x1=2 , N = 2x1 =2 , Cu = 1

Hence this is balance equation
