What else can I help you with?
Scientists can determine the age of a substance using a method that compares the amounts of different forms of carbon atoms present in the substance Is this method more useful for organic substances?
The structure
Why is fat a useful storage substance for bats?
Fat is a useful storage substance for bats. This is because fat has over two times the energy content per mass unit versus proteins and carbohydrates.
How is cellular respiration useful to humans?
helps with release of energy
Is fuel a type of oil?
Fuel is any combustible matter, to include coal, oil, gas or wood. A substance that produces useful energy
How is uranium transformed into useful energy?
Uranium fission with thermal neutrons release an enormous quantity of energy; this heat is converted in electricity.
Which form of energy is the most randomized and most difficult to put to useful work?
Thermal energy is the most randomized form of energy because it manifests as random motion of particles in a substance. It is difficult to convert thermal energy into useful work because it tends to disperse and equalize, making it challenging to harness and direct for productive purposes.
What is the energy that is not useful called?
The energy that is not useful is called waste energy. It is the energy that is not harnessed or converted into a form that can be utilized for work or other useful purposes.
Useful and non-useful energy transfers for coal?
Useful: Energy Light Sound Non-Useful: Electricity C02
What is useful for comparing amounts or quantities?
bar graph
What is the process were useful amounts of copper can be isolated?
electrolysis
What is the process of extracting a useful substance from an ore?
The process of extracting a useful substance from an ore typically involves crushing the ore to release the desired mineral, then separating the mineral from the gangue (unwanted material) using physical or chemical methods such as gravity separation, flotation, or leaching. Finally, the extracted mineral is further refined to obtain the desired substance in its pure form.
What is a calorimeter and why is it useful in scientific research?
A calorimeter comes in different forms, but it is a device that allows you to contain a substance and burn it. The released energy from the compound is then released within the calorimeter, and through changes in temperature of the calorimeter and water that usually surrounds the substance, scientists can calculate the joules of energy released by the substance which will be near equivalent except for lost energy to the total energy contained within a substance. This is how you get calorie measurements in the food you eat. A sample calorimetry test is done and applied to all the same type of food.
