Emeka carried out a reaction in which a gas was given off. He followed the progress of the reaction by measuring the mass of the reaction vessel over time. After 5 minutes the mass of the reaction vessel
had decreased from 120g to 114.5g. Calculate the rate of this reaction.

In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. which postulate of kinetic molecular theory best explains how this is possible? a. attractive forces between gas particles are negligible because the particles of an ideal gas are moving so quickly. b. collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy. c. gases consist of a large number of small particles, with a lot of space between the particles. d. gas particles are in constant, random motion, and higher kinetic energy means faster movement.

Two metal blocks that have slightly different temperatures are placed next to one another. after five minutes, they both have lower but equal temperatures. according to the law of conservation of energy, what  most likelyhappened? energy was created inside the blocks.energy was destroyed inside the blocks.energy was absorbed into the blocks from outside the system.energy was transferred from the warmer block to the cooler block.
