How many different methods can you list for how we generate electricity in this country. Which of those methods do we use the most, and which of them should we invest more in

1. Broadly, there are three different methods for how electricity is generated in the United States. They include; Fossil fuels, Nuclear energy, and Renewable energy sources.

2. Fossil fuels, are used the most, with Natural gas topping the list by 38%.

3. More should be invested into renewable gas. It is a clean source of energy and investing in it would bring about a cleaner and safer environment.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels arise from plants and animals that have been long dead and can can now be converted to sources of energy. Examples include; coal natural gas, crude oil. etc.  

Nuclear energy arises from the fission of uranium atoms, nuclear decay, and nuclear fusion. They are safe since green house gases are not emitted. Thermal energy can be generated as the byproduct of these reactions.

Renewable sources of energy are generated from natural sources which are always available. Examples are; sun, wind, biomass, water, and geothermal sources,

14,16 18 reacts with group

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
