Energy= power×time P =120 W =120 J/s Time t = 20 min = 20×60 second= 1200 second E = 120× 120 = 144000joul E =144×1000 joul =144 kilo joul

POWER=120W TIME=20 min=1200sec Energy=Power*Time E=120W*1200sec E=144000J E=144000J=144Kilojoule

Total energy is the product of power and time... But we have to convert both to the same unit. 20 min= 20*60sec= 1200 sec.. Energy= 1200*120 J =144000 J

120 W is 120 Joules per second, and 20Minutes is 1200 seconds. Hence the total energy consumed is 1200seconds*120W = 144000 Joules or 144 Kilo Joules.

Energy E=P.t where time t in second E=120.20.60=144000 Watt.sec=144000joule E=144 kilojoule

Given: Power=120W Time=t=20min=20X60Sec =1200Sec Power P = Work W ( or Energy E)/ Time taken t Then, Energy E= Power P × Time t So, Energy E= 120 W× 1200sec = 144000 J = 144 KJ.

Silvering of a mirror is the process to convert a plain glass into mirror.After silvering the glass don't allow light to refract through it..So we get a reflecting mirror

Energy consumed will be 120 x 20 x 60 = 144000 J or 144 kJ

Energy = power / time. = 120/120 = 1 Joule

Which gas is produced when dilute hydrochloric acid is added to a reactive metal? Write the chemical reaction when iron reacts with dilute H2SO4.

Hydrogen gas is produced. Fe + h2so4----> feSO4 + h2O Here fe is oxidised into fe2+ by h+ and the SO4^2- ion does not play any role in this reaction. You can replace the h2SO4 by hCl.

Why do we apply paint on iron articles?
When iron comes in contact with atmospheric air, it gets corroded or rusted. A reddish brown colour is deposited on its surface called a s rust; which damaged the iron article. Hence, to prevent such rusting we apply paint the iron articles.
