Answer:

175KJ

Explanation:

I will assume the diagram is as in the attachment I’ve supplied herein.

Activation energy is the minimum energy required by reactant particles for a chemical reaction to occur. Depending on reaction conditions, especially for reversible reactions, reactants can become products and vice versa.

Activation energy for a forward reaction = energy of the activated complex (transition state) – energy of the reactants.

Activation energy for a reverse reaction = energy of the activated complex – energy of the products.

For the forward reaction above, reading the values from the diagram,

Activation energy = energy of the activated complex –energy of the reactants

Activation energy = (400 – 225)KJ = 175KJ

Answer:

175 kJ

Explanation:

Activation energy can be defined as the potential energy that is needed to change reactants to products. This is the minimum energy required for the chemical reaction to take place. Thus, using the given figure:

Activation energy = activation complex - reactant energy

In the given figure, activation complex = 400 kJ

reactant energy = 225 kJ

Therefore:

Activation energy = 400 - 225 = 175 kJ

How many joules are released when one atom of americium 241, the isotope used in ionization-type smoke detectors, undergoes apha
klemol [59]

When Americium (Am-241) undergoes alpha decay(He-4) it forms neptunium (Np-237) based on the following pathway:

²⁴¹Am₉₅ → ²³⁷Np₉₃ + ⁴He₂

The energy released in given as:

ΔE = Δmc²

where Δm = mass of products - mass of reactants

                 = [m(Np-237) + m(He-4)] - [m(Am-241)]

                 = 237.0482+4.0015-241.0568 = -0.0073 g/mol = -7.3 * 10⁻⁶ kg/mol

ΔE = -7.3*10⁻⁶ kg/mol * (3*10⁸ m/s)² = -5.84*10¹¹ J/mol

Red mercury (II) oxide decomposes to form mercury metal and oxygen gas according to the following equation: 2HgO (s) 2Hg (l) + O
diamong [38]

hey there!:

2HgO (s) =>  2Hg (l) + O2 (g)

2 moles of HgO decompose to form 2 moles of Hg and 1 mole of O2 according to the reaction mentioned in the question.

So 4.00 moles of HgO must give 4 moles of Hg and 2 moles of O2 theoretically.

603 g of Hg = 603 / 200.6 = 3 moles

Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100

= ( 3/4) * 100

= 75 %

Hope this helps!
