Answer:

Energy is added (postive enthalpy)

Explanation:

Ice melting means solid turns into liquid. Solid is more stable than liquid thus you must put in energy to weaken the forces of solid and turn it into liquid. Thus, you must put in energy to melt ice. This makes the enthalpy of the system to be positive.

suppose you're outside on a hot date and you moving to the shade of a tree which form of energy transfer are you avoiding?

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Radiation

Explanation:

A sun transfers energy by radiation. However, there are three different modes of heat energy transfer -

a) Radiation

b) Conduction

c) Convection

Since sun is a at a very far distance from earth, it cannot transfer its heat energy by conduction as for this mode of heat transfer two bodies need to be in touch with each other.

For convection mode of heat transfer a medium is required but for transfer of sun's energy (which is electromagnetic radiation) no medium is required.

Hence, Sun will transfer energy by radiation only.

Given the following data:N2(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO(g), ΔH=+180.7kJ2NO(g) + O2(g)→ 2NO2(g), ΔH=−113.1kJ2N2O(g) → 2N2(g) + O2(g), ΔH=−163

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

ΔH = +155.6 kJ

Explanation:

The Hess' Law states that the enthalpy of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the step reactions. To do the addition of the reaction, we first must reorganize them, to disappear with the intermediaries (substances that are not presented in the overall reaction).

If the reaction is inverted, the signal of the enthalpy changes, and if its multiplied by a constant, the enthalpy must be multiplied by the same constant. Thus:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) ΔH = -113.1 kJ

2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH = -163.2 kJ

The intermediares are N₂ and O₂, thus, reorganizing the reactions:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ

NO₂(g) → NO(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = +56.55 kJ (inverted and multiplied by 1/2)

N₂O(g) → N₂(g) + (1/2)O₂(g) ΔH = -81.6 kJ (multiplied by 1/2)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

N₂O(g) + NO₂(g) → 3NO(g)

ΔH = +180.7 + 56.55 - 81.6

ΔH = +155.6 kJ

The CRC Handbook, a large reference book of chemical and physical data, lists two isotopes of indium (). The atomic mass of 4.28

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: The mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu

Explanation:

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

.....(1)

Let the mass of isotope 2 of indium be 'x'

For isotope 1:

Mass of isotope 1 = 112.904 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 4.28 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.0428

For isotope 2:

Mass of isotope 2 = x amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = [100 - 4.28] = 95.72 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.9572

Average atomic mass of indium = 114.818 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$114.818=[(112.904\times 0.0428)+(x\times 0.9572)]\\\\x=114.904amu$

Hence, the mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu
