When fireflies give off light a reaction takes place. Is this an example of endothermic or exothermic reaction?.

Chemistry

N76 [4]1 year ago

Most likely, exothermic processes are what cause the light that fireflies emit. because fuel and oxygen undergo a chemical process that produces carbon dioxide and water.

In thermochemistry, an exothermic process is one "for which the overall standard enthalpy change H is negative." Exothermic processes typically result in heat. A reaction for which the overall standard Gibbs energy change G is negative is what the term "reaction" according to the IUPAC means.

The exergonic response and the phrase are commonly mistaken. A very exothermic reaction will often accompany an exergonic reaction since "H" significantly contributes to "G." The majority of the remarkable chemical reactions presented in classrooms are exothermic and exergonic processes.

On the other hand, an endothermic reaction typically produces heat and is brought on by a rise in the entropy of the system.

Elena-2011 [213]

Photosynthesis requires energy, making it an endothermic reaction. Light, generally sunlight, is the source of this energy. The process converts the sun’s electromagnetic energy into chemical energy, which is then stored in chemical bonds in the plant. Sunlight is the primary source of energy on the surface of Earth.

Zinc wire is added to an iron(II) nitrate solution.
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Zn(s) + Fe(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Fe(s)

Explanation:

When metal zinc is added to an iron (II) nitrate solution, we can see the following redox reaction:

Zn(s) + Fe(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Fe(s)

Zinc is oxidized since its oxidation number increases from 0 to +2.

Iron is reduced since its oxidation number decreases from +2 to 0.

Otrada [13]
Because Boron likes to lose 3 electrons when it undergoes ionization, we draw a boron ion like a helium atom, with just 2 electrons in the first shell, and 0 in the second
