Is the location of the stored energy in the atom?

Energy is not a substance, so you can't always pinpoint an exact "location" for it. Specifically in the case of potential energy, which is what I believe what you mean when you say "stored energy", the energy is not "stored in an object"; rather, it is defined by the RELATIONSHIP between two or more objects. For instance, if two magnets attract one another, pulling them apart requires force; therefore, when they are separate they have more energy (potential energy) than when they are together. The same applies to any type of potential energy, such as chemical energy, nuclear energy, gravitational potential energy, electrical potential energy.


Why are temperature near the Great Lakes cooler in the summer than temperature a few miles away?

The lakes have a high specific heat capacity.Answer:Air passing over the lakes becomes moister from evaporation. This evaporation of water requires heat which is absorbed from the air. As a consequence the air becomes cooler.


Do all chemical bonds hold potential energy?

No. some bonds actually require sustained energy to break apart (such as water). This is displayed in the use of a Hoffman apparatus, which requires an electrical current to split water into Hydrogen and Oxygen.


When finding the emf of a redox reaction by Ered cathode - Ered anode and a half-reaction is reversed on the chart do you flip the sign of its reduction potential?

No, because the chart shows reduction potentials. Ered cathode - Ered anode = emf just requires you to plug in the reduction potentials the way they are. A common equation is Ered cathode + Eox anode = emf, in which case you would have to flip the sign of the anode's reduction potential, since you would need its oxidation potential. But the equation Ered cathode - Ered anode = emf is simpler and probably formed to be that way.

How do you tell the difference between a cathode and anode?

A:The difference is potential a anode requires a positive potential and the cathode requires a negative potential ANSWER : I wander what a zener will behave with this explanation. Both have cathode and anode terminals


What is this Problem Potential energy is what energy?

It's potential energy, but to produce a better answer requires clarification.


Is it grammatically correct to say you heed consequence or we heed consequence?

Neither. You take heed of the consequences, or heed the consequences. Consequences are always plural.*Unless you are using the alternate definition of the word consequence which is "Importance with respect to power to create change" which basically means theidea of possible consequences as opposed to any specific consequence or consequences.


Is osmosis an example of active transport?

no, Osmosis is the movement of water from a higher water potential to a low water potential. This requires no energy. Active transport requires energy and it involves substances moving from a lower concentration to a higher.


How is chemical energy and nuclear energy considered potential energy?

Potential energy is energy based on position, as a result of moving things against (or with) forces (more specifically, so-called "conservative" forces, but I won't go into details about that here). It requires a force to separate two atoms; therefore, you have potential energy there. It also requires a force (a much greater force in this case) to separate the nucleons in an atom; as a result, you once again have potential energy.


Which step in the opsec process requires you to look?

The step in the OPSEC (Operations Security) process that requires you to look at the information and data you have and determine what adversaries may be able to deduce from it is called "Analysis of Threats." This step involves assessing potential risks and vulnerabilities through the eyes of a potential adversary to better protect critical information.


How can osmosis be used to transfer energy?

It can't. As osmosis is the natural movement of water down a water potential gradient, it requires no energy.

What is a form of energy that comes from chemical bonds?

The form of energy that comes from chemical bonds is known as chemical energy. Chemical energy is considered potential energy, as it requires a transformation to occur.
