- Geothermal energy is heat from under the ground.
- California can use this because it is sited over the edge of tectonic plates, so there is easy access to this energy.

Is geothermal energy easy to get?
Most of the time, no, it's miles underneath solid rock. In a few places on the Earth; Iceland, Yellowstone National Park, Japan, near San Francisco, CA, geothermal power is near or at the surface of the ground. In most places, it's several miles underground, and under solid, hard, rock. It is not easy to get to geothermal energy, and it's only affordable in a few places on the planet.
How do engineers use earth's heat to create geothermal energy?
There are three main ways engineers use geothermal energy. 1.Direct heating systems-hot water is piped into buildings to provide heat. 2.Geothermal power plants0-use resourced from dry steam wells and hot water wells. wells one to two miles deep are dug and hot water and steam are piped to the surface. Steam or a liquid turned into steam, turn the turbines. 3.Geothermal heat pumps transfer heat from the ground or water into buildings in the winter and reverse in the summer.
What type of reaction is 2 Ca plus 2Cl2 2 CaCl2 plus energy?
exothermic
How many moles of calcium ca atoms are in 98.5 g of ca?
The atomic mass of calcium, Ca is 40.1. First we calculate the amount in moles of calcium in a 98.5g pure sample.Amount of Ca = 98.5/40.1 = 2.46mol So there are 2.46 moles of Ca (or Ca atoms).
How many moles of calcium are there in 5.00 g of Ca?
Percent CompositionFirst you have to find all the atomic masses of the elements involved in the compound. Then you have to add them up to get the total molecular mass. Take the atomic mass of Ca and divide it by the total mass. Multiply it by 100 and you will get the percent of Ca in any compound of Ca(OH)2. Once you know the percent composition, you can take Ca's percent from the whole sample. Ca: 40.1O: 16.0×2 = 32.0H2: 1.0×2 = 2.0Ca(OH)2: 74.1 grams(40.1 ÷ 74.4) × 100 = 53.9 % of Ca in Ca(OH)253.9 % of 5.00 grams = 2.67 grams of Ca in Ca(OH)2

Can you die from geothermal?
Yes, you can die from the heat and poison gas. The geothermal vents near San Francisco, Ca. are not open to public viewing, because if the average person got too near them they could get injured or die.
Which states use the Uniform Solar Energy Code?
Alaska; Colorado; Homer Glenn, IL; Cypress, CA; New Mexico
How is geothermal created?
In regions where volcanoes are or were active hot molten magma lies under ground. And when water is also present in those same regions that water can be turned into steam or simply very hot water. That steam can be accessed by drilling down to where it's formed and venting that steam up to turbines that drive electrical generators. And there the geothermal energy as steam in converted into grid electrical power to distribute to users in the region. Calistoga CA has geothermal generated electrical power for example. That area is also noted for its hot springs and mineral waters for spas.
would like to see my account online?
I was told by Chase Bank that I would be able to see my accounts online -- I use my checking account online but have never been able to access my CA Tax Muni account. How can I access my CA Muni Bond Fund online??
What energy can be transformed to other form of energy?
Well, if you look at the periodic table, Ca, Mg, and F can me transformed to another form of energy.
How am i able to break a lease for financial reasons in CA?
You're not.
Can you get unemployement in CA if you were fired for drinking on the job?
you should be able to
Which energy sublevel is being filled by the element K to Ca?
4s. Both K and Ca are s block and they are both in the 4th period. So in K, you have 4s1 and in Ca you have 4s2
2 Ca plus 2Cl2 equals 2 CaCl2 plus energy is what type of reaction?
Exothermic (releases energy)
