The change in enthalpy is the change in heat energy of a reaction and is calculated by (Hint: Hess' Law): Group of answer choice
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

d. Sum of product enthalpies minus the sum of reactant enthalpies

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy change of a reaction (ΔH°rxn) can be calculated using the following expression:

ΔH°rxn = ∑n(products) × ΔH°f(products) - ∑n(reactants) × ΔH°f(reactants)

where,

ni are the moles of products and reactants

ΔH°f(i) are the standard enthalpies of formation of products and reactants

If two identical atoms are bonded together, what kind of molecule is formed?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. A linear, nonpolar molecule

Explanation:

Molecules which are alike usually have the same degree of pull which results in them sharing electrons. This sharing of electrons is known as the molecules exhibiting Covalent bonding between them.

The equal pull also results in the cancelling out of electrons and favoring non polar bonds due to the absence of free electrons which would have been able to interact with H2O in a polar binding system.

What mass of CH3COOH is present in a 250 mL cup of 1.25 mol/L solution of vinegar?
aleksley [76]
If    1000 ml (1 L) of CH₃COOH contain 1.25 mol
let  250 ml  of CH₃COOH contain x

⇒  x =  \frac{250 ml * 1.25mol}{1000 ml}
        
        =  0.3125 mol

∴ moles of CH₃COOH in 250ml is 0.3125 mol

Now, Mass = mole  ×  molar mass
        
                   = 0.3125 mol  × [(12 × 2)+(16 × 2)+(1 × 4)] g/mol
 
                   = 18.75 g

∴ Mass of CH₃COOH present in a 250 mL cup of 1.25 mol/L solution of vinegar is <span>18.75 g</span>
