In a chemical reaction, the reactants are substances that undergo the reaction, and the products are substances that are formed during the reaction. The table below shows the reactants and products of several different chemical reactions. Reactants Products Type of Reaction
4K + O2 2K2O + heat Exothermic
2H2O + heat 2H2 + O2 Endothermic
2CO + O2 2CO2 + heat Exothermic
CaCO3 + heat CaO + CO2 Endothermic

Based on the information given in the above table, the best definition of an endothermic reaction would be
A.
a reaction that absorbs heat.
B.
a reaction that has one product.
C.
a reaction that does not require heat.
D.
a reaction that releases heat.

Hot air balloons float in the air because of the difference in density between cold and hot air. in this problem, you will estimate the minimum temperature the gas inside the balloon needs to be, for it to take off. to do this, use the following variables and make these assumptions: the combined weight of the pilot basket together with that of the balloon fabric and other equipment is w. the volume of the hot air inside the balloon when it is inflated is v. the absolute temperature of the hot air at the bottom of the balloon is th (where th> tc). the absolute temperature of the cold air outside the balloon is tc and its density is ďc. the balloon is open at the bottom, so that the pressure inside and outside the balloon is the same. as always, treat air as an ideal gas. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

An experimental procedure requires a 10 ml of acid to be dissolved

An electron moved from shell n = 2 to shell n = 1. what most likely happened during the transition? a fraction of a photon was added. a photon of energy was absorbed. a fraction of a photon was removed. a photon of energy was released.
