Why is a burning candel a chemical change and not a physical changes?
Burning is a chemical reaction with oxygen (oxidation).
What is a chemical reaction in green plants that produces energy and oxygen?
Photosynthesis
Is chemical energy potential energy?
Yes and no. Yes before the reaction, No after the reaction.There is potential chemical energy among constituent substances in an exothermic reaction - such as in Hydrogen and Oxygen. When the chemicals combine, the reaction liberates thermal energy that was stored as potential chemical energy before the reaction.During the chemical reaction, the potential energy is converted into thermal (and perhaps other forms, such as light) energy.After the chemical reaction, the thermal energy is disspiated, and the potential energy is gone.
What word equations show chemical changes in rock?
what is a chemical reaction of a rock
What is the function of a spark in a reaction between oxygen and hydrogen gas?
The spark is the activation energy. It is the catalyst of the chemical reaction.
What chemical changes oxygen into energy?
Oxygen is not changed into energy. However, energy may be released when it combines with a range of other chemical compounds and elements.
Why is a burning candel a chemical change and not a physical changes?
Burning is a chemical reaction with oxygen (oxidation).
What is the chemical change of the sun's energy into glucose and oxygen?
This chemical reaction is called photosynthesis.
What is a chemical reaction in green plants that produces energy and oxygen?
Photosynthesis
How do oxygen produce energy when there no light?
Through oxidation. That is to say, a chemical reaction that involves oxygen.
Is chemical energy potential energy?
Yes and no. Yes before the reaction, No after the reaction.There is potential chemical energy among constituent substances in an exothermic reaction - such as in Hydrogen and Oxygen. When the chemicals combine, the reaction liberates thermal energy that was stored as potential chemical energy before the reaction.During the chemical reaction, the potential energy is converted into thermal (and perhaps other forms, such as light) energy.After the chemical reaction, the thermal energy is disspiated, and the potential energy is gone.
An example for chemical energy?
Burning hydrocarbons such as oil or natural gas, this is a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the air
Oxygen in the blood why?
The chemical energy needed to drive all the chemical processes of the human body is obtained by an oxidation reaction that requires oxygen.
How do you know that there is energy stored in coal?
When it is burned in air (this is a chemical reaction with oxygen) energy is released as heat.
What word equations show chemical changes in rock?
what is a chemical reaction of a rock
What is the function of a spark in a reaction between oxygen and hydrogen gas?
The spark is the activation energy. It is the catalyst of the chemical reaction.
Do fossils transform chemical energy in to other types of energy?
Some do. Coal is a fossil and it changes chemical energy into heat energy on burning it in the presence of oxygen.
