Answer:

A thermochemical equation for the combustion of propane (C3H8)(C3H8) is written as follows:

C3H8(l)+5O2(g)→3CO2(g)+4H2O(g);ΔH∘rxnC3H8(l)+5O2(g)→3CO2(g)+4H2O(g);ΔHrxn∘ = -2202.0 kJ/mol

The value given for ΔH∘rxnΔHrxn∘ means that:

a. the reaction of one mole of propane absorbs 2202 kJ of energy from the surroundings.

b. the reaction is endothermic.

c. the enthalpy of formation of propane is 2202 kJ/mol.

d. the reaction of one mole of propane releases 2202 kJ of energy to the surroundings.

e. None of these.

Degger [83]

Answer:-3463 kJ and -3452kJ

Explanation:

ΔU is the change in internal energy of a system and its formula is;

ΔU = q + w

Where q represents heat transferred into or out of the system. Its value is positive when heat is transfer into the system and negative when heat is produced by the system.

W represents the work done on or by the system. Its value is positive when work is done on the system and negative when it is done by the system.

For the system in this question, we see that it produces heat which means heat is transferred out of the system, therefore the value of q is negative, it can also be seen that work is done by the system which means that w is also negative.

Therefore,

ΔU = -q-w

ΔU = -3452 kJ – 11kJ

= - 3463kJ

ΔH is the change in the enthalpy of a system and its formuls is;

ΔH = ΔU + Δ(PV)

By product rule Δ(PV) becomes ΔPV + PΔV

At constant pressure ΔP = 0. Therefore,

ΔH = -q-w + PΔV

w is equals to PΔV, So:

ΔH = -q

ΔH = -3452kJ

How many joules of heat are required to raise the temperature of 174g of gold from 22°C to 85°C? The specific heat of gold is 0.
Slav-nsk [51]
Remembering the equation Q=MCdeltaT where
q=is the amount of heat energy
M=mass
C=specific heat
deltaT= change in temperature

Therefore, using the equation we can substitute values and solve for q.
Q= (15 grams) (0.129 J/(gx°C))(85-22)
Q=(15) ((0.129 J/(gx°C)) (63)
Q=121.9 Joules

The energy needed to raise the temperature of 15 grams of gold from 22 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius is then 121.9 Joules or 122 Joules (if rounded up).

4. Does an atom of an element always have the same number of neutrons as other atoms of the same
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Explanation:

No. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different atomic masses (due to the different number of neutrons)

For example, carbon exists as carbon-12 and carbon-14, which both have 6 protons but have 6 and 8 neutrons respectively.

Why is an atom regarded as electrically unstable​
meriva

Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.
