Why does a heating curve have horizontal plateaus at certain points during the heating process? what is happening at those points?

Which of these reactions are redox reactions? check all that apply.cd + hcl → cdcl2  + h2cucl2  + na2s → 2nacl + cuscaco3  → cao + co2          2zns + 3o2  → 2zno + 2so2          ch4  + 2o2  → co2  + 2h2o

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)

Which theory was contradicted by experiments with the photoelectric effect? light spreads out after it passes through a small opening. as soon as light strikes metal, electrons will be ejected. visible light, regardless of color, will cause the ejection of electrons when striking metal. the kinetic energy of ejected electrons depends on the frequency of light that strikes the metal.
