How do I calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction at 25 °C ?

1 answer:

4 0

MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g)

Using the standard enthalpies of formation given in the source below:

(−601.24 kJ) + (2 x −92.30 kJ) − (−641.8 kJ) − (−285.8 kJ) = +141.76 kJ
So:

MgCl2(s) + H2O(l) → MgO(s) + 2 HCl(g), ΔH = +141.76 kJ

A crow flies 100 meters east in 5 minutes. What is the crow’s velocity?

torisob [31]

Answer: 20 m/min east

Explanation: The speed is distance divided by time

distance between start-point and end-point = 100 meters

time to cover the distance = 5 minutes

100 m ÷ 5 min = 20 m/min east

you have to add east since velocity is the measure of speed and direction and your answer needs to include the direction

The weight of the body in the air is .... the weight of the submerged body

stira [4]

Answer:

the correct answer is option 'b': More than

Explanation:

The 2 situations are represented in the attached figures below

When an object is placed in air it is acted upon by force of gravity of earth which is measured as weight of the object.

While as when any object is submerged partially or completely in any fluid the fluid exerts a force in upward direction and this force is known as force of buoyancy and it's magnitude is given by Archimedes law as equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces, hence the effective force in the downward direction direction thus the apparent weight of the object in water decreases.

The chemical equation below shows the reaction of glucose and oxygen.

goldfiish [28.3K]

• Aerobic respiration, photosynthesis

It is aerobic because it requires oxygen to be carried out. Anaerobic on the other hand does not require oxygen.

It’s two products would be the reactants for photosynthesis because in photosynthesis the reverse reaction takes place as glucose is produced along with water from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight.
