Answer:

weak bonds break and strong bonds form

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which heat energy is evolved during the reaction process.

Bond formation requires energy while bond breakage releases energy. More energy is needed for the formation of weak bonds as compared to strong bonds.

<em>Hence, when weak bonds break, they release more energy than needed to make a corresponding strong bond leading to the release of the remaining energy as heat.</em>

How many moles of oxygen are produced when 26.5 mol of aluminum oxide are decomposed?
spayn [35]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>2Al2O3 = 4Al + 3O2

We are given the amount of aluminum oxide used in the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculations. We do as follows:

26.5 mol Al2O3 ( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol Al2O3 ) = 39.75 mol O2 produced</span>

Calculate the mass percent (m/m) of a solution prepared by dissolving 45.09 g of NaCl in 174.9 g of H2O.
inysia [295]

Answer:

20.3 %  NaCl

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of solute = 45.09 g

Mass of solvent = 174.9 g

Mass percent of solution = ?

Solution:

Mass of solution = 45.09 g + 174.9 g

Mass of solution = 220 g

The solute in 220 g is 45.09 g

220 g = 2.22 × 45.09

In 100 g solution amount of solute:

45.09 g/2.22 = 20.3 g

Thus m/m% = 20.3 %  NaCl
