What happens in a chemical reaction with the individual elements?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gemiola [76]4 years ago
3 0
Chemical reactions involve electrons and where they move (if they move).
Metal atoms (or elements) usually give away their outer shell electrons in reactions to become stabilised (creating positive ions). Non-metal atoms (or elements) usually gain electrons in order to become stable (negative ions). Some reactions involve covalent bonds, metallic bonds, ionic bonds etc., but at the base (no pun intended :D) of most chemical reactions it's just a matter of electrons moving around between atoms.

Hope it helps!

What volume would a 200.0 g sample of hydrogen sulfide gas occupy at stp?
GrogVix [38]
Answer is: Volume of hydrogen sulfide is 131,37 L.
m(H₂S) = 200,0 g.
n(H₂S) = m(H₂S) ÷ M(H₂S).
n(H₂S) = 200 g ÷ 34,1 g/mol.
n(H₂S) = 5,865 mol.
V(H₂S) = n(H₂S) · Vm.
V(H₂S) = 5,865 mol · 22,4 L/mol.
V(H₂S) = 131,37 L = 131,37 dm³.
n - amount of substance.
Vm - molar volume.

Classify the following processes as exothermic or endothermic: (d) a person running;
Sonja [21]

The process releases energy and consequently we classify it as exothermic. (d) a person running releases warmness as muscle mass paintings. therefore, the procedure is exothermic.

d) Exothermic, heat is released as a person runs and muscle groups perform work.

A chemical response or bodily exchange is exothermic if warmth is released by using the system into the environment. Because the surroundings are gaining heat from the system, the temperature of the surroundings increases. The sign of q for an exothermic procedure is -ve due to the fact the device is dropping heat.

Some other examples of exothermic reactions:

1)Snow Formation in Clouds.

2)Burning of a Candle.

3)Rusting of Iron.

4)Formation of Ion Pairs.

5)response of strong Acid and Water. etc...

Is the dissolution of borax in water a temperature dependent reaction or is it spontaneous at all temperatures at which water is
enot [183]

The dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction. With the higher temperature, the salt dissolve quickly.

<h3>What is borax?</h3>

Borax is the hydrate salt of boric acid. It is white and widely used in cleaning and in laundry  detergent.

Borax is a salt that will dissolve in water at almost any temperature, with the exception of steam and ice.

However, as with any salt, the higher the temperature, the faster the salt dissolves, so speed is dependent on temperature. It will dissolve in cold water, but it will take longer.

Thus, the dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction.
