Chemical energy sources are often portable and provide large amounts of energy. Fossil fuels are one kind of chemical energy sou

rce. Most of the energy we use in the United States is generated by the combustion of fossil fuels. However, fossil fuel combustion adds greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, mostly CO2. One measure of the total amount of greenhouse gases that are emitted into the atmosphere each year is called a carbon footprint. Study these images to compare the carbon footprint of an average person in the United States to an average person around the world.
Knowing that greenhouse gases are contributing to climate change, how can we reduce our carbon footprint, particularly in the United States? Could hydrogen fuel replace fossil fuels in the future? Why or why not? Should the size of a person’s carbon footprint be limited by law? Why or why not?

How many calories of heat are required to raise the temperature of 1.00kg of water from 10.2 degrees Celsius to 26.8 degrees Cel
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the  temperature of substance by one degree mathmeticaly

Q=mcΔT

ΔT=T2-T1

ΔT=26.8-10.2=16.6

C for water is 4.184

therefore

Q=1.00*4.184*16.6

Q=69.4 j

now we have to covert joule into calorie

1 calorie =4.2 j

x calorie=69.4 j/2

so 69.4 j =34.7 calorie thats why 34.7 calorie heat is required to raise the temperature of water from 10.2 to 26.8 degree celsius

The boiling point of water is 100ºC. The boiling point of acetone is 56ºC. Which statement about distilling a mixture of acetone
Anika [276]

Answer:

I think  Acetone will be  captured and cooled.

Explanation:

Distillation is a method of separation based on the difference in boiling point of two liquids.

The liquid that has a lower boiling point is first separated from the mixture. It vaporizes, cooled and collected before the liquid that has a higher boiling point.

In this case, acetone is captured and cooled before water since it has a boiling point of 56ºC and water has a boiling point of 100ºC.

Suppose a large atom bonds with a small
Zielflug [23.3K]
A large atom means that the radius would be large, meaning that the effective nuclear charge is low, therefore a lower electronegativity based on the periodic table. A smaller atom would mean the opposite, therefore a higher electronegativity. This combination would mean that the new molecule is polar.

Also, to answer your question, it would be most likely different from both atoms, as size doesn't really matter in a compound's properties.
