Explanation:
When a metal replaces another metal in solution, we say such a reaction has undergone a single displacement reaction.
In such a reaction, metal higher up in the activity series replaces another one due to their position.
To known the metal or metals that will replace the given copper, we need to reference the activity series of metals.
Every metal higher than copper in the series will displace copper from the solution.
So, there metals are: potassium, sodium, lithium, barium, strontium etc.
This is because oxygen (2.8.6) requires two electrons on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2.8.8). Hydrogen (1) on the other hand requires one electron on its valence shell to attain stable configuration (2). Therefore in a covalent bond, it requires two hydrogen and one oxygen to share electrons and achieve stable configuration.
You can use the equation ΔS(surr)=q(surr)/T or ΔS(surr)=-q(rxn)/T.
the two equations are equal since we know that the energy the system (reactoin) puts out just goes into the surroundings.
(In other words q(surr)=-q(rxn))
Using the equation, <span>ΔS(surr)=-(-283kJ/298K)=0.9497kJ/K or 949.7J/K
This answer makes sense since the reaction is exothermic which means it released energy into the system which usually causes the entropy to increase.
I hope that helps.</span>
Beaker does thermometer measures the thermal energy in the air
Answer: HBr has the lowest rate of effusion at a given temperature.
Explanation: The effusion rate usually increases with increase in temperature because the kinetic energy of the gaseous molecules increases. But it was not true for gases having heavier mass. This was explained by Graham's Law.
Graham's Law states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight.
We are given different gases with different Molecular masses. The gas having larger Molecular mass will have the lowest rate of effusion.
Mol. Mass of 
= 80 g/mol
Mol. Mass of 
= 16 g/mol
Mol. Mass of 
= 17 g/mol
Mol. Mass of HBr = 81 g/mol
Mol. Mass of HCl = 36 g/mol
As, Mol. mass of HBr is the highest, so its rate of effusion will be the lowest.
