Does vaporization absorb or release energy?

Vaporization absorb energy.


Why is energy released in the proton-proton chain reaction?

Energy is released in the proton-proton chain reaction because when protons combine to form helium nuclei, a small amount of mass is converted into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, Emc2. This energy is released in the form of gamma rays and neutrinos.

What speed of a proton that is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 120V?

The speed of the proton can be calculated using the formula for kinetic energy: KE = 1/2 mv^2, where KE is the kinetic energy, m is the mass of the proton, and v is the speed of the proton. The potential energy gained by the proton is equal to qV, where q is the charge of the proton and V is the potential difference. Setting the potential energy gained equal to the kinetic energy, we can solve for v.


What happens to the energy if an electron moves away from a proton?

to have a proton come out of a nucleus the atom must be a large radioactive element, meaning its so big its unstable and particles come off. the particles that are released is the radiation so the proton is called alpha radiation the energy is purely its high speed momentum. the energy of a proton coming of a nucleus is technically mechanical energy.


What kind of proton causes a nuclear reaction?

A proton with high energy and momentum is required to initiate a nuclear reaction. When this high-energy proton collides with another nucleus, it can cause it to undergo fission or fusion, releasing a large amount of energy.

What happens to potential energy when a proton is brought closer to an electron?

Protons all have positive charge, so they repel each other. It takes work to push two protons closer together, so you're putting energy into them (potential energy increases). If you let go, the potential energy is released when the protons fly apart; it becomes kinetic energy.
