Often, several slightly different magnitudes are reported for an earthquake. This happens because the relation between the seismic measurements and the magnitude is complex and different procedures will often give slightly different magnitudes for the same earthquake.

What is a product for 4 reaction type?
Crank

Answer:

1= 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

2=CaCo₃ + heat → CaO +CO₂

3=CH₄ + 2O₂   → CO₂ +2H₂O

4=HCl + NaOH   → NaCl + H₂O

Explanation:

1 = Simple composition

The formation of water molecule is simple composition reaction. In this reaction two hydrogen atoms react with one oxygen atom and form one water molecules.

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

The amount of energy released is -285.83 KJ/mol. It is exothermic reaction.

2 = Simple decomposition reaction:

The break down of sodium hydrogen carbonate into sodium carbonate, carbondioxide and water is decomposition reaction. The decomposition reactions re mostly endothermic, because compound required energy to break.

2NaHCO₃ + heat → Na₂CO₃ + H₂O + CO₂

It is endothermic reaction.

Another example is:

CaCo₃ + heat → CaO +CO₂

3 = Combustion reaction

Consider the combustion of methane:

CH₄ + 2O₂   → CO₂ +2H₂O

The burning of methane is exothermic. The combustion reactions are exothermic because when fuel are burns they gives energy.

4 = Neutralization reaction

The neutralization reactions are those in which acid and base react to form the salt and the water. Some neutralization reactions are exothermic because they release heat. e.g

Consider the neutralization reaction of HCl and NaOH.

HCl + NaOH   → NaCl + H₂O

What is the controlled variable of your experiment?<br> Your answer
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The controlled variable of an experiment is the one thing that stays the same in an experiment.

Explanation:

An example would be : if I have two pennies, both dunked in water, but than I change one to be dunked in vinegar, the one dunked in water still is the constant or the controlled variable.
