When ammonium nitrate is dissolved in water in a glass container, the glass container becomes cold. Is this an endothermic or ex

othermic reaction? How do you know?
A. It is endothermic; heat energy has been removed from the surroundings, making the container cold.
B. It is endothermic; heat energy has been released to the surroundings, leaving the container cold.
C. It is exothermic; heat energy has been released to the surroundings, leaving the container cold.

Answer:

Explanation:

Figure 6. An instant cold pack consists of a bag containing solid ammonium nitrate and a second bag of water. When the bag of water is broken, the pack becomes cold because the dissolution of ammonium nitrate is an endothermic process that removes thermal energy from the water.

Calculate the volume (in cm³) of 38.5 grams of platinum if the density of platinum is 21.5 g/cm³. Give your answer to 2 decimal
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf v\approx  1.79 \ cm^3}}

Explanation:

The formula of density is:

d=\frac{m}{v}

If the formula is rearranged for volume, it becomes:

v=\frac{m}{d}

The mass of the platinum is 38.5 grams.

The density is 21.5 grams per cubic centimeter.

m=38.5 \ g \\d= 21.5 \ g/cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{38.5 \ g}{ 21.5 \ g/cm^3}

Divide. Note that the grams (g) will cancel each other out.

v=1.79069767 \ cm^3

Round to 2 decimal places (hundredth place). The 0 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 9 in the hundredth place.

v\approx  1.79 \ cm^3

The volume is about <u>1.79 cubic centimeters.</u>

the mechanism for a chemical reaction is shown above. which of the following statements about the overall reaction and rate laws
Naddika [18.5K]

The rate equation of reaction is  2H2O2 → 2 H2O + O2 and the rate law for elementary step 1 is rate=k[H2O2][I−] .

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Step 1: H2O2 + I− → IO− + H2O

Step 2: H2O2 + IO− →H2O + O2  + I−

The mechanism for a chemical reaction is shown above. Which of the following statements about the overall reaction and rate laws of the elementary reactions is correct?

A) The chemical equation for the overall reaction is 2 H2O2+I−→ 2 H2O+O2+I− , and the rate law for elementary step 2 is rate=k[H2O2][IO−] .

B) The chemical equation for the overall reaction is H2O2+IO−→ H2O+O2+I− , and the rate law for elementary step 2 is rate=k[H2O2]2[IO−] .

C) The chemical equation for the overall reaction is 2 H2O2→2 H2O+O2 , and the rate law for elementary step 1 is rate=k[H2O2][I−] .

D) The chemical equation for the overall reaction is 2 H2O2→2 H2O+O2 , and the rate law for elementary step 1 is rate=k[H2O2]2 .

It is possible that a chemical reaction may not take place in a single reactive encounter. In that case, we can deduce the sequence of steps by which the reaction occurs. Each step is called an elementary reaction.

The overall rate law is the sum of all the elementary reactions after the intermediates have been eliminated. In this case, the specie IO− is an intermediate. Also, I− appears on both sides of the reaction equation and it has to cancel out.

The rate equation of reaction is  2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2 and the rate law for elementary step 1 is rate=k[H2O2][I−] .

Consider the combustion of octane:
just olya [345]

Answer:

15.9 g

Explanation:

(Take the atomic mass of C=12.0, H=1.0, O=16.0)

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

no. of moles of octane used = 11.2 / (12.0x8 + 1x18)

= 0.0982456 mol

Since oxygen is in excess and octane is the limiting reagent, the no. of moles of H2O depends on the no. of moles of octane used.

From the balanced equation, the mole ratio of octane : water = 2:18 = 1: 9,

so this means, one mole of octane produced 9 moles of water.

Using this ratio, we can deduce that (y is the no. of moles of water produced):

\frac{1}{9} =\frac{0.0982456}{y}

y = 0.0982456x9

y= 0.88421 mol

Since mass = no. of moles x molar mass,

mass of water produced = 0.88421  x (1.0x2+16.0)

=15.9 g
