ANSWER

EXPLANATION

Given that

The energy released by the system is 12.4J

Work done on the surrounding is 4.2J

Follow the steps below to find the change in energy

In the given data, energy is said to be released to the surroundings

Recall, that exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which heat is released to the surroundings. Hence, change in enthalpy is negative

Step 1; Write the formula for calculating change in energy

\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ q }+\text{ w}

Since heat is released to the surrounding, then q = -12J

Recall, that work done by the system on the surroundings is always negative

Hence, w = -4.2J

Step 2; Substitute the given data into the formula in step 1

\begin{gathered} \text{  }\Delta E\text{ = q + w} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -12.4 }+\text{ \lparen-4.2\rparen} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ = -12.4 - 4.2} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -16.6J} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the change i

A group 2 metal carbonate has a mass of 84 g/mol. Identify the group 2 metal X using its chemical formula.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Magnesium

0.003mole

Explanation:

The problem here entails we find the metal in the carbonate.

 For group 2 member, let the metal  = X;

 The carbonate is XCO₃;

 If we sum the atomic mass of the elements in the metal carbonate, we should arrive at 84g/mol

 Atomic mass of C = 12g/mol

                            O  = 16g/mol

 Atomic mass of X + 12 + 3(16)  = 84

  Atomic mass of X  = 84 - 60  = 24g/mol

The element with atomic mass of 24g is Magnesium

B.

Number of moles in 0.3g of CaCO₃:

     Molar mass of CaCO₃   = 40 + 12 + 3(16)  = 100g/mol

 Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}  

 Number of moles  = \frac{0.3}{100}   = 0.003mole

One difference between strong bases and weak bases is 1. strong bases can neutralize more acid than weak bases. 2. strong bases
Tema [17]
One difference between strong bases and weak bases is that a strong bases dissociate completely while weak bases do not. A strong base is a compound that completely ionizes into metal and hydroxide ions when in a solution, on the other hand weak bases only partially ionizes to metal and hydroxide ions in solution. An example of a weak base is ammonia and an example of a strong base is sodium hydroxide.

What must a plant need to produce 4 molecules of sugar?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

24 molecules of H20

Explanation:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy →   glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture  by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

it is known from balanced chemical equation that 6 moles of carbon dioxide react with the six moles of water and created one mole of glucose and six mole of oxygen.

consider 1 mole contain 1 molecule.

So in order to produced 4 molecules of sugar number of molecules of water carbon dioxide needed are,

6 × 4 = 24 molecules

24 molecules of water and 24 molecules of carbon dioxide needed.
