In the demonstration it was a combination of what? | kinetics and thermodynamics |
How do firefights do a controlled burn? | inject ping pong balls with KMnO4 the inject glisserin so the reaction won't occur until it hits the ground. |

When engine blocks where made from Aluminum and the water pumps where made from cast iron what would happen? | Holes would form in the water pumps |
When one times an equilbirium by two what happens A to B becomes 2A to 2B to delta s, delta H delta G, K and E | S, H, G= 2S, 2H, 2G K=Ksquared E=E |
What kills you when electrocuted? | current not voltage |
What does an Amp equal? | Coul/s |
What does a J equal? | Coul-V |
what does a watt equal? | amp-V |
So RT/(nF)equals? | V |
At equilibrium E equals what and Q equals wwhat? | E=0 Q=K |
Why doesn't E change? | Because it is equivalent tto the height of the dam. And when you times it by two the coeffinent crosses out with the number of electrons |
As temperature goes down what happens to E? | E goes up |
In a cold battery this would mean the the volts are higher why doesn't the battery start? | the car needs power when the temperature drops the amps drop because amp is a rate function dependent on temperature so the chemical reactions are slower. |
In a dead battery why are there no amps? | because the concentration are very low |
What is an example of electrolysis? | silver plating |
In silver plating why is the V low? | Because V does not matter the current is what matters. |
Why does electrolysis need a fast current? | Because the process would take a long long time without a fast current,7. |
What is the most common battery? | lead acid battery |
Why is the freezing point in some batteries higher? | dus to mare solids |
Why won't motorcycle batteries start a truck when they are the same voltage? | dues to not enough power or Amps |
how does one get a 12V battery? | by putting six cells in a series |
what is battery rate? | Amp-Hrs |
what increases the amount of amps? | surface area |
What happens when there is too much surface area? | the battery become too spongy and falls apart |
What is oxidized and reduced in car batteries? | Lead |
What is the difference in D, C, A, AA, AAA batteries even though they have the same power, current and voltage? | The larger batteries have more energy |
Lead is heavy so this means? | low power density |
Why does Li have more energy per kg? | because it does not weigh as much as lead does |
Where are the most deposits of Li? | Bolivia and Afghanistan |
Why don't aluminum cans rust? | because when Al reacts with O it forms AlO which forms a coating around the Al preventing rust |
Where are fuels cells used today and why? | Space ships due to cost |
Why are fuel cells so great? | One just needs to put fuel in to get products out |
What would happen if we putt fuel cells in cars? | It would eliminate the engine, and other stuff enabling th car to be 1/3 of its weight |
H2 is how many times more efficient in a fuel cell then burning it? | 3x |
What is corrosion? | unwanted oxidation |
Where does rust form in turns of where it is oxidized? | In a different place |
What should the red canyon be called in Wyoming since it was named wrong? | Ferric instead of Ferrous |
Why are barns red? | because red pigment is the cheapest pigment to make |
What is in red paint? | FeO2 |
What is used to stop rust? | Soap, sacrificial Anodes and coatings |
Why doesn't steel wool rust since it has a higher surface area? | Because soap has a higher pH so no rust because the equation shifts to the left |
how do sacrificial anodes work? | They force iron to be a cathode so Iron will no oxidize |
What are some examples of sacrificial anodes? | Zn and Mg |
What is the advantage of using a SA to a coating? | A coating needs to cover the whole area of iron and if it is scratched the iron will rust the SA just needs to be touching a prat of the iron to protect the whole area |
