Application Question: In Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, it is common for members of the Amish community to use wind mills to pu

mp water from underground to fill a tank for drinking water. The wind causes the turbine blades to spin, rotating a shaft, which is transferred through some gears to operate a pump that is plugged in to an outlet, which pumps water up from deep below the ground to fill an above ground tank. Identify the energy conversions happening in the fill in the blank question on the right.

Required
Wind blows (--------- energy) causing the turbine to turn, which rotates the shaft and allows the water pump (-----------) to work. The pump causes the water to move up from the well ( energy) where the water is stored in a tank that is positioned 5 feet above the ground (gravitational potential energy).

Answer:

The wind blows wind energy causing the turbine to turn,  the rotating shaft works the pump making mechanical energy.

The motion of water moving up from a well is kinetic energy.

Water in the tank, which is positioned 5 feet above the ground level is potential energy

Explanation:

The wind has in it wind energy which is then used to rotate the turbine shaft which is a form of mechanical work and hence possess mechanical energy

Moving water possesses kinetic energy and when this water is kept at some height it possesses potential energy

Decide which element probably has a boiling point most and least similar to the boiling point of potassium.
larisa86 [58]

Explanation:

  • The boiling point of Potassium is most similar to the element sodium , since , both the elements belong to the same group i.e. , the group one , Hence , the most of the physical chemical properties are same , irrespective of some exceptions .

Hence , the Boiling point of Potassium and sodium are the same .

  • The boiling point of Potassium is least similar to the element helium , since , both the elements belong to different groups , Since , Helium has a negative boiling point and is one of the most stable element , being a noble gas .

For the oxidation-reduction reaction equation given here 4ga+p4 indicate how many electrons are transferred in the formation of
sergij07 [2.7K]
The reaction given is:

4Ga + P4 ---> 4GaP

The oxidation number of the reactants is zero, because they are pure elements.

The P in compounds may have oxidation states 3- or 5-. Gallium may only have oxidation state 3+.

Then, to be neutral in GaP the oxidation states are 3+ for Ga and 3- for P.

And the transference of electrons can be see in this oxidation - reduction equations:

Ga (0) - 3 e-    ----> Ga (3+)

P (0) + 3e- ---> P (3-)

So, for one formula unit, 3 electrons have been transfered from each Ga atom to P atom to form one GaP unit.

Answer: 3 electrons.

Which statements about reducing sugars are true? D‑Glucose (an aldose) is a reducing sugar. The oxidation of a reducing sugar fo
qaws [65]

Answer:

The true statements are given below.

Explanation:

1 D glucose is a reducing sugar

2 The oxidation of reducing sugar forms a carboxylic acid sugar.

D glucose is a reducing sugar because glucose contain a free hydroxyl group (-OH)in its anomeric carbon.

 The oxidation of reducing sugar result in the conversion of -CHO group in case of aldose sugar and -CH2OH group in case of ketose sugar into carboxylic acid(-COOH).
