If the bonds are held together tightly, as an ionic bond or even a covalent bond, there will need to be a strong force to separate those bonds. This would by why their would be a high melting point. Another reason would be re-activity. <span />
Answer:
A
Explanation:
In this question, we are to calculate the enthalpy of change of the reaction. ΔH
To be able to do that, we use the Hess’ law and it involves the subtraction of the summed heat reaction of the reactants from that of the product.
Thus, mathematically, the enthalpy of change of the reaction would be;
[ΔH(CCl4) + 4 ΔH(HCl)] - [ΔH(CH4) + 4 ΔH(Cl2)]
We can see that we multiplied some heat change by some numbers. This is corresponding to the number of moles of that compound in question in the reaction.
Also, for diatomic gases such as chlorine in the reaction above, the heat of reaction is zero.
Thus, we can have the modified equation as follows;
[ΔH(CCl4) + 4 ΔH(HCl)] - [ΔH(CH4)]
Substituting the values we have according to the question, we have;
-95.98 + 4(-92.3) -(-17.9)
= -95.98 - 369.2 + 17.9
= -447.28 KJ/mol
Answer:
Relative age is the age of a rock layer.
Absolute age is the numeric age of a layer of rocks or fossils.
Explanation:
Answer and Explanation:
The reaction is in the gas phase, so the equilibrium constant is expressed in terms of the partial pressures (P) of the products and reactants, as follows:

We have the following data:
P(SO₃) = 2.6 atm
P(O₂) = 0.43 atm
We need Kp for this reaction. We can assume that in Appendix 4 we found that Kp = 7 x 10²⁴.
Then, we introduce the data in the equilibrium constant expression to calculate the partial pressure f SO₂ (PSO₂), as follows:

Therefore, the partial pressure of SO₂ is 1.5 x 10⁻¹² atm (for the given Kp).
Chemical reactions can be broadly classified into two categories from the context of heat requirement. These include; endothermic and exothermic reactions.
Endothermic reactions proceed with the absorption of heat while exothermic reactions are accompanied by the evolution of heat.
1) Oxidation of iron involves reaction of elemental iron with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust). This is essentially a corrosion reaction in which the metallic bonds in Fe are broken and new bonds between Fe and O are formed, This is an exothermic reaction
4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3
Ans D)
2) The process of condensation i.e. phase change liquid to solid (or gas to liquid) involves release of heat to the surroundings, hence it will be an exothermic reaction.
Ans B)
3) Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by a 1 C. Typically, liquids and gases are used as coolants. For a coolant to be efficient, it must have a high specific heat.
Ans B)
