Taking into account the definition of enthalpy of a chemical reaction, the quantity of heat released when 0.75 moles of Mg are burned is 451.5 kJ.

<h3>Enthalpy of a chemical reaction</h3>

The enthalpy of a chemical reaction is known as the heat absorbed or released in a chemical reaction when it occurs at constant pressure. That is, the heat of reaction is the energy that is released or absorbed when chemicals are transformed into a chemical reaction.

The enthalpy is an extensive property, that is, it depends on the amount of matter present.

<h3>Heat released in this case</h3>

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

2 Mg(s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO(s) + 1204 kJ

This equation indicates that when 2 moles of Mg reacts with 1 mole of O₂, 1204 kJ of heat is released.

When 0.75 moles of Mg are burned, then you can apply the following rule of three: if 2 moles of Mg releases 1204 kJ of heat, 0.75 moles of Mg releases how much heat?

heat=\frac{0.75 moles of Mgx1204 kJ}{2 moles of Mg}

<u><em>heat= 451.5 kJ</em></u>

Finally, the quantity of heat released when 0.75 moles of Mg are burned is 451.5 kJ.

A certain chemical reaction releases 36.2 kJ/g of heat for each gram of reactant consumed. How can you calculate what mass of re
Lilit [14]

Answer:

0.038 g of reactant

Explanation:

Data given:

Heat release for each gram of reactant consumption = 36.2 kJ/g

mass of reactant that release 1360 J of heat = ?

Solution:

As  36.2 kJ of heat release per gram of reactant consumption so first we will convert KJ to J

As we know

1 KJ = 1000 J

So

36.2 kJ = 36.2 x 1000 = 36200 J

So it means that in chemical reaction 36200 J of heat release for each gram of reactant consumed so how much mass of reactant will be consumed if 1360 J heat will release

Apply unity formula

                 36200 J of heat release ≅ 1 gram of reactant

                 1360 J of heat release ≅ X gram of reactant

Do cross multiplication

              X gram of reactant = 1 g x 1360 J / 36200 J

              X gram of reactant = 0.038 g

So 0.038 g of reactant will produce 1360 J of heat.

If a piece of metal were to cut in half would the density change
nadezda [96]
Density depends on both the mass and the volume of an object. If you cut a bar of gold in half, you would have two bars with half the mass of the original bar. However, each bar would also have half the volume of the original bar. The density of gold does not change.

Andrej [43]

The final temperature : 345 K

<h3> Further explanation </h3>

Given

475 cm³ initial volume

600 cm³ final volume

Required

The final temperature

Solution

At standard temperature and pressure , T = 273 K and 1 atm

Charles's Law  :

When the gas pressure is kept constant, the gas volume is proportional to the temperature  

V₁/T₁=V₂/T₂

Input the value :

T₂=(V₂T₁)/V₁

T₂=(600 x 273)/475

T₂=345 K

1 . a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions covalent bond
liberstina [14]

Explanation:

When there occurs sharing of electrons between two chemically combining atoms then it forms a covalent bond. Generally, a covalent bond is formed between two non-metals.

An ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of one or more number of electrons from one atom to another. An ionic bond is always formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Every atom of an element will have orbitals in which electrons are found. These orbitals are known as energy level.

A molecule is defined as the smallest particle present in a substance or atom.

A metallic bond is formed due to mobile valence electrons shared by positive nuclei in a metallic crystal.

Thus, we can conclude that given statements are correctly matched as follows.

1).  a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions - ionic bond

2).  a chemical bond formed by two electrons that are shared between two atoms - covalent bond

3). the orbitals of an atom where electrons are found - energy level

4).  the smallest particle of a covalently bonded substance - molecule

5).  a bond characteristic of metals in which mobile valence electrons are shared among positive nuclei in the metallic crystal - metallic bond
