Abattery has chemical energy, which can be used to generate thermal and radiant energy in a lightbulb. which best explains what happens to the amount of energy in this scenario? -the total energy in the system increases because chemical energy creates thermal and radiant energy. -the total energy in the system decreases because chemical energy disappears as thermal and radiant energy are generated. -the total energy in the system remains the same as the decrease in chemical energy equals the increase in thermal and radiant energy. -the total energy in the system remains the same as the increase in chemical energy equals the decrease in thermal and radiant energy.

Answer is: The total energy in the system remains the same as the decrease in chemical energy equals the increase in thermal and radiant energy.

The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed or transferred from one form (in this example chemical energy) to another (in this example thermal and radiant energy).

Radiant energy or light is the only kind of energy we can see with our eyes. Light have different wavelenght and different color.

Chemical energy - this type of energy is often found in things like batteries or food.

The answer is C.

Explanation:

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.
