Energy is transmitted to the surrounding in an exothermic reaction and this can be understood with the energy diagram of exothermic reaction attached with the answer.

<h3>What is an Exothermic Reaction ?</h3>

When a chemical reaction happens, energy is transferred to or from the surroundings.

When energy is transferred to the surroundings, this is called an exothermic reaction, and the temperature of the surroundings increases.

ΔH value negative –> energy released –> exothermic reaction

This happens because the reactants are at the higher energy state as compared to the products and therefore heat is liberated in the atmosphere to match the difference and therefore heat content in the surroundings increases.

The energy diagram for the exothermic reaction is attached with this answer.

What is the volume of an irregular object if the initial volume in the graduated cylinder is 3.50 ml and it rises to 7.50 ml aft
Margarita [4]
Answer is: the volume of an irregular object is 4,00 ml.
<span>Volume is the amount of space the object occupies and can be finded immersing it in water in a container with volume markings and than see how much the level of the container changes (goes up). 
</span>V(irregular object) = V(final volume) - V(initial volume).
V(irregular object) = 7,50 ml - 3,50 ml.
V(irregular object) = 4,00 ml.

Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. a scientist digs up sample of arctic ice that is 458,000 years old. he takes
Jlenok [28]

The original mass of krypton 81 that is present in the ice is 6.70 grams.

<h3>How do we calculate original mass?</h3>

Original mass of any substance will be calculated as below for the decomposition reaction is:

N = N₀(1/2)ⁿ, where

N = remaining mass of krypton-81 = 1.675g

N₀ = original mass of krypton-81 = ?

n will be calculated as:
n = T/t, where

T = total time period = 458,000 years

t = half life time = 229,000 years

n = 458,000/229,000 = 2

Now putting all these values on the above equation, we get

N₀ = 1.675 / (1/2)²

N₀ = 6.70 g

Hence required mass is 6.70 g.

Are Molar Mass and Molecular Mass the same thing? If they are different, then why are they used interchangeably?
exis [7]

At this point there are two answers:  one says that there is no difference, except for the units;  the molecular weight (MW) is the mass of one molecule, while a molar mass is the mass of a mole (6.02 x 10 ^ 23) of molecules.

While in certain contexts both statements can be shown to be true, I'm not sure these answers really provide you with the insight you're looking for.

So, we'll look at your question from a different perspective.   Take a real example, something simple like water.  Water has a nominal MW of 18 (so we'll use nominal precision for simplicity, instead of the 4-places often used for these types of calculations).

The MW of water (formula = H2O) is the weight of one atom of oxygen, which = 16 amu [8-neutrons at 1 amu each plus 8 protons at 1 amu each = 16 amu), plus two atoms of hydrogen, at 1 proton (1 amu) each.  Normal everyday hydrogen has no neutrons.  So for H2O, we have a total molecular weight of 18 amu.

From the CRC reference book we find that one amu weighs 1.66 x 10 ^--24 grams.  Multiplying the two and in keeping with the two units of precision we're working with, one molecule of water has a mass of  29.8 x 10^-24g, or [3.0 x 10 ^ -23 g] per molecule of water.

A Mole is simply Avagadro's number (6.02 x 10 ^ 23) of anything... protons, baseballs, whatever.  The term Molar Mass in chemistry refers to the mass of a mole of molecules.  So in this case a molar mass of water molecules is Avagadro's number of them, the mass therefore being [6.02 x 10 ^ 23] x 3.0 x 10 ^ -23 g/ molecule] =  18.0 g

Summarizing:

Molecular Weight is the weight given in amu of an atom or molecule.  For H2O, the MW is 18 amu or 3.0 x 10 ^ -23 g.

Molar Weight is the weight, usually in grams of 6.02 x 10 ^ 23 measurements which happens to be equal to the MW of the molecule (or atomic wt. of the atom) , and for water is 18.0 g.

So, while MW and molar weight are related, their absolute values are magnitudes apart.
