Answer:

Explain the difference between total and average molecular kinetic energy of a gas contained in a box. As an average K.E. of the particles increases, the object's temperature increases. Total Kinetic Energy is the sum of energy. Explain how a liquid thermometer measure temperature.

The total kinetic energy of a body or a system is equal to the sum of the kinetic energies resulting from each type of motion.

Given the equation: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, how many moles of oxygen are needed to react with 13 moles of hydrogen

bulgar [2K]

Explanation:

2H2 + O2 = 2H2O

2mol. 1mol. 2mol

2mol reacts with 1mol

13mol reacts with x

x=13mol × 1mol

2mol

x= 13mol

2mol

x= 6.5mol of oxygen

For some jobs, “good enough” is good enough. That’s sometimes true in chemistry. More often, though, careful planning, calculati

When carrying out experiment in the laboratory to investigate physical changes, absolute measurement is usually not needed. For instance, one can just take a little sample of sodium chloride and dissolve it in water to demonstrate physical change. But for other experiments, such as the measurement of the catalase enzyme activity in a liver tissue. Careful measurements have to be made when preparing the chemicals that will be used in the experiment.
