Answer: The main purpose of any warhead is to inflict damage on the target. The way the damage is caused may vary with different types of warheads, but in the most general sense, damage is caused by the transfer of energy from the warhead to the target. The energy is typically mechanical in nature and takes the form of a shock wave or the kinetic energy of fragments. In either case, a large amount of energy must be released. For many warheads that energy is stored in the form of chemical explosives.
Explosive Reactions
There are many chemical reactions that will release energy. These are known as exothermic reactions. If the reaction proceeds slowly, the released energy will be dissipated and there will be few noticeable effects other than an increase in temperature. On the other hand, if the reaction proceeds very rapidly, then the energy will not be dissipated. Thus, a great quantity of energy can be deposited into a relatively small volume, then manifest itself by a rapid expansion of hot gases, which in turn can create a shock wave or propel fragments outwards at high speed. Chemical explosions may be distinguished from other exothermic reactions by the extreme rapidity of their reactions. In addition to the violent release of energy, chemical explosions must provide a means to transfer the energy into mechanical work. This is accomplished by expanding product gases from the reaction. If no gases are produced, then the energy will remain in the products as heat.
Most chemical explosions involve a limited set of simple reactions, all of which involve oxidation (reaction with oxygen). A relatively easy way to balance chemical explosive equations is to assume that the following partial reactions take place to their maximum extent (meaning one of the reactants is totally consumed) and in order of precedence:

Answer:
10 kilograms of dynamite
Explanation:
The more volume an object has the more potential energy is available if it is the same material. 10 kilograms is larger than 5 kilograms.
Which of these are an atom's valence electrons?
Answer:
The Outer-most Electron shell contains the valence electrons.
Bonus Info:
Valence Electrons are used by atoms to make ionic bonds.
Answer:
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell, or energy level, of an atom. For example, oxygen has six valence electrons, two in the 2s subshell and four in the 2p subshell. We can write the configuration of oxygen's valence electrons as 2s²2p⁴.

They mated cows with sheep that had very thick wool.
O
They mated cows with caribou that tolerated the cold well.
O
They identified cows that did well in hot weather and mated them
Answer: They identified cows that did well in cold weather and mated them. This is known as selective breeding. All the other answers either cannot work as cross-species breeds generally don't work, or they target cows that survive well in hot weather.
2CuO+2NH3------ 3Cu + 3H2O+ N2. Given that the relative molecular mass of copper oxide is 80, what volume of ammonia is required to completely reduce 120 g of Copper oxide? ( Cu=64, O=16, N=14)
Volume of Ammonia(NH₃) = 22.4 L
Further explanationGiven
Reaction
3CuO+2NH₃⇒ 3Cu + 3H₂O+ N₂
In the problem, the CuO coefficient should be 3 not 2
M CuO = 80
mass CuO = 120 g
Required
The volume of NH₃
Solution
mol CuO :
[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{M}\\\\mol=\frac{120}{80}\\\\mol=1.5[/tex]
From the equation, mol ratio CuO : NH₃ = 3 : 2, so mol NH₃=
[tex]\tt \dfrac{2}{3}\times 1.5=1~mol[/tex]
Assume at STP(0 °C, 1 atm) ⇒1 mol = 22.4 L, then volume of NH₃=22.4 L

What is the molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of CH2O and a molar mass of 120.12 g/mol
Answer:
C4H8O4
Explanation:
Let (CH20)x
C=1*12.01=12.01 (12.01, 1.01, 16.00 Avg mass of elements)
H=2*1.01=2.01
O=1*16.00=16.00
12.01 + 2.01 + 16.00 = 30.03
120.12/30,03=4
==> (CH2O)4 = C4H8O4
The molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of [tex]CH_2O[/tex] is equal to [tex]C_4H_8O_4[/tex].
Given the following data:
Empirical formula = [tex]CH_2O[/tex]Molar mass = 120.12 g/mol.Scientific data:
Molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol.Molar mass of hydrogen = 1 g/mol.Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol.To determine the molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of [tex]CH_2O[/tex]:
First of all, we would find the molar mass of [tex]CH_2O[/tex]:
[tex]CH_2O =12 +(1\times2)+16\\\\CH_2O =30\;g/mol[/tex]
For molecular formula:
[tex](CH_2O)n = 120.12\\\\30n = 120.12\\\\n=\frac{120.12}{30}[/tex]
n = 4.0

How many molecules of H2O are in 8.54 moles of H2O?
Select one:
a. 5.14 * 10^24 molecules H2O
b. 2.86 * 10^23 molecules H2O
c. 6.02 * 10^23 molecules H2O
d. 5.14 * 10^23 molecules H2O
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ About \ 5.14 *10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O}}[/tex]
Explanation:
To convert from moles to units, we must use Avogadro's Number: 6.022 * 10²³
This tells us the number of units (molecules of water in this problem) in 1 mole of a substance (water). We can use it as a ratio or fraction.
[tex]\frac{6.022 *10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2 O}[/tex]
Now, we can multiply this fraction by the moles of water (8.54) given.
[tex]8.54 \ mol \ H_2O*\frac{6.022 *10^{23}\ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2 O}[/tex]
When we multiply, the moles of water will cancel out.
[tex]8.54 *\frac{6.022 \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ }[/tex]
Since the fraction has a 1 as a denominator, we can remove it. The problem will be a simple multiplication problem.
[tex]8.54*6.022 \ molecules \ H_2O[/tex]
[tex]5.142788*10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O[/tex]
The original measurement of 8.54 has 3 significant figures (8, 5, and 4). Therefore, we must round our answer to 3 sig figs, which is the hundredth place in this case.
The 2 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 4 in the hundredth place.
[tex]5.14 *10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2 O[/tex]

Which substance is correctly identified as a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture?
A. salad -- heterogeneous
B. milk --- heterogeneous
C. river water --- homogeneous
D. beach sand --- homogeneous
Answer:
A
Explanation:
A salad with lettuce, cheese, seeds, tomatoes, broccoli, and other vegetables is an example of a heterogeneous mixture.
Milk is not mixed with anything so that is incorrect
River water is mixed in with dirt and minerals so this one is incorrect
Beach sand is incorrect because you can see colored particles.

The compound will be C5H12.
Now consider the general formula for the combustion of an alkane;
CnH2n+2 + 3n+1/2O2-----> nCO2 + (n+1) H2O
If we substitute n=5, we have;
C5H12 + 8O2-----> 5CO2 + 6H2O

A molecule contains 24.36 g of nitrogen and 62.64g of sliver
Answer:
This molecule is AgN3
Explanation:
Answer:
AgN3
Explanation:
Mass of nitrogen N is given as 24.36 g
Molar mass of nitrogen N= 14 g/mol.
amount of substance in mol of N = mass/molar mass
=24.36 g/ 14 g/mol.
=1.74 mol.
Given mass of silver= 62,64 g.
Molar mass of silver Ag=107.87 g/mol
Number of mols=62.64 g ÷ 107.87 g/mol.
=0.58 mol.
Ratio of number of mol of N and number of mols of Ag = 1.74 mol / 0.58 mol
=3:1
Hence, empirical formula is AgN₃.

When we drink water, it is absorbed into our blood through the digestive tract. If the concentration of water in body cells is low, cells must get water from the blood. What process allows water to enter body cells from the blood?
Answer:
Osmosis
Explanation:
Water is very essential for the body. When we drink water, our blood cells absorbs water from the body. This happen by a process called as osmosis process. Osmosis is type of diffusion process.
Water along with oxygen and carbon dioxide are some of the simple molecules that moves into the blood cell. Osmosis is the process by which water molecules passes into the cell bodies through its semi permeable membrane.
