In a particular chemical reaction, the energy of the reactants is 30 kJ and the energy of the products is 5 kJ. The maximum ener

gy of the system is 40 kJ.
Sketch a potential energy diagram for this reaction. Make sure to label the energy of the reactants, the energy of the products, the activation energy, and the enthalpy change for the reaction.
What is the activation energy for this reaction?
What is the enthalpy change for this reaction?
Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? Explain your answer in two ways: first, using the energy values, and second, by referring to the shape of the graph.
The coating on the head of a match is highly flammable. When it burns, it releases a great deal of energy. However, before the match can burn, it must gain a small amount of energy from a spark. That spark is typically produced by striking (rubbing) the match head against a rough surface. Sketch and describe a potential energy diagram that represents the striking and burning of the match. Remember to label the diagram with the energy changes that occur. Your answer must include the potential energy diagram and a written description. (Note: you do not have to use actual energy values.)

An energy of 25kJ is given out hence the reaction is exothermic.

<h3>What is a reaction?</h3>

Chemical reaction is said to occur when reactants combine leading to the formation of products. In a plot of the energy against the reaction profile, the topmost point of the graph is called the activation energy.

We know that a reaction is exothermic when reactants posses more energy than the products. Hence the enthalpy change for this reaction is;

ΔH = 5kJ - 30kJ = -25kJ thus the reaction is an exothermic reaction.

Now, the activation energy for the lighting of the match stick is high that is why a spark is required before the reaction gets underway. Heat is evolved in the process hence the reaction is exothermic. The energy of the reactants is greater than the energy of the products.

An oil gusher shoots crude oil 25.0 m into the air through a pipe with a 0.100-m diameter. Neglecting air resistance but not the
Mariana [72]

Answer:3764.282 KPa

Explanation:

Given gusher shoots oil at h=25 m

i.e. the velocity of jet is

v=\sqrt{2gh}[/tex]

v=22.147 m/s

Now the pressure loss in pipe is given by hagen poiseuille equation

\Delta P=\frac{32L\mu v}{D^2}

\Delta P=\frac{32\times 50\times 22.147\times 1}{10^{-2}}

\Delta P=3543.557 KPa

For  25 m head in terms of Pressure

\Delta P_2=\rho \times g\times h=220.725 KPa

Total Pressure=\Delta P+\Delta P_2=3543.557+220.725=3764.282 KPa

Train cars are coupled together by being bumped into one another. Suppose two loaded train cars are moving toward one another, t
wolverine [178]

Answer:

final velocity =  0.08585m/s

Explanation:

We are taking train cars as our system. In this system no external force is acting. So we can apply the law of conservation of linear momentum.

The law of conservation of linear momentum states that the total linear momentum of a system remains constant if there is no external force acting on the system. That is total linear momentum before = total linear momentum after

total linear momentum before = linear momentum of first train car + linear momentum of second train car

We know that linear momentum = mv

where,

m = mass

v = velocity

thus,

total linear momentum before = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

m₁ = mass of first train car = 135,000kg

v₁ = velocity of first train car = 0.305m/s

m₂ = mass of first second car =  100,000kg

v₂ = velocity of second train car =  −0.210m/s

Note: Momentum is a vector. So while adding momentum we should take account of its direction too. Here since second train car is moving in a direction opposite to that of the first one, we have taken its velocity as negative.

total linear momentum before = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

                                                  = 135,000x0.305 + 100,000x(−0.210)

                                                  = 135,000x0.305 - 100,000x0.210

                                                  = 20,175 kgm/s

Now we have to find total linear momentum after bumping. After the bumping both the train cars will be moving together with a common velocity(say v).

Therefore, total linear momentum after = mv

m = m₁ + m₂ = 135,000 + 100,000 = 235,000

total linear momentum before = total linear momentum after

235,000v = 20,175

v =  \frac{20,175}{235,000}

  = 0.08585m/s

Answer:

a) The uniform velocity travelled by the car is 10 meters per second.

(Point b has been erased by the user)

c) The distance travelled by the car with uniform velocity is 100 meters.

Explanation:

a) Calculate the uniform velocity travelled by the car:

The uniform velocity is the final velocity (v), in meters per second, of the the uniform accelerated stage:

v = v_{o} + a\cdot t (1)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial velocity, in meters per second.

a - Acceleration, in meters per square second.

t - Time, in seconds.

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and t = 5\,s, then the uniform velocity is:

v = 0\,\frac{m}{s} + \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (5\,s)

v = 10\,\frac{m}{s}

The uniform velocity travelled by the car is 10 meters per second.

(Point b has been erased by the user)

c) The distance travelled by the car (\Delta x), in meters, with uniform velocity is calculated by the following kinematic expression:

\Delta x = v\cdot t (2)

If we know that v = 10\,\frac{m}{s} and t = 10\,s, then the distance travelled is:

\Delta x = \left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (10\,s)

\Delta x = 100\,m

The distance travelled by the car with uniform velocity is 100 meters.
