Define potential energy

Chemistry
2 answers:
pashok25 [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Potential energy is stored energy meaning something is waiting to come out and when it does it will turn into kinetic energy.

Say you had a bow in arrow when you pull that back and are waiting to let it go that is potential energy and then when you do let it go it turns into kinetic.

Potential energy is electrical,chemical,nuclear and mechanical energy it is also gravitational energy.

You could also say potential energy is a object being held depending on it's position like when a roller coaster stops at the top ,that is potential energy and then  when it goes down it again turns into kinetic.

Usually all the time potential energy will always turn into kinetic energy.

Hope this helps have a great day:)

molecular orbital theory correctly predicts paramagnetism according to mo theory, overlap of two p atomic orbitals produces .oxy
Mkey [24]

Overlap of two p atomic orbital produces oxygen gas ,o2 because it has two unpaired electron and explains paramagnetism.

O2 molecules have two unpaired electrons Materials in which all the electrons are paired are diamagnetic. It repel a magnetic field.Para magnetic and diamagnetic materials do not act as permanent magnets. Molecular orbital theory provides an explanation  of chemical bond that explains paramagnetism of the oxygen molecule. It also explains the bonding in a other molecule. O2 molecule has two unpaired electron.  Electrons creates magnetic field as it goes to the ground state and also spin.MO theory describes the distribution of electrons in molecules same as the distribution of electrons in atoms described using atomic orbital.
