Because the primary product of burning hydrogen is water, hydrogen is desirable as a clean-burning fuel. Most hydrogen in the United States is produced by a process called steam-methane reformation. The reaction takes place at high temperatures (700-1000 °C). The overall reaction of steam-methane reformation is: CH4 + 2 H2O → CO2 + 4 H2 This reaction absorbs energy. Combined with the energy to heat the water, it takes about 94 kJ/mol to form hydrogen gas using steam-methane reformation. Suppose a combustion engine gets 72 kJ of work out of every mole of hydrogen gas it burns. Comparing this to the amount of energy that went into making the hydrogen, what is the efficiency of the entire process of forming, burning, and using the energy from the hydrogen? Round your answer to the nearest percent.

Rocks, as they are compressed, begin forming mountains above the earth's surface when two continental plates converge. the continental crust increases in depth as the mountains grow above. the himalayan mountains formed at a convergent plate boundary in this manner. the rocks are smashed together causing them to due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates and eventually forming rock. a) melt; igneous b) layer; sedimentary c) recrystallize; metamorphic d) melt into the earth's interior; metamorphic

A5 mole sample of liquid acetone is converted to a gas at 75.0°c. if 628 j are required to raise the temperature of the liquid to the boiling point, 15.600 kj are required to evaporate the liquid, and 712 j are required to raise the final temperature to 75.0°c, what is the total energy required for the conversion?
