It comes from the kinetic energy of the fireman due to his motion & the gravitational potential energy due to his raised position above the pole. As he slides down the pole, the KE and GPE are converted into heat energy and sometimes sound energy.

Give the correct thermochemical equations for a (cacl2+h2o) pack and (nh4no3+h2o) pack.
Umnica [9.8K]

In a pack of CaCl2 and H2O, hydrolysis of Ca+2 will occur

This will result in formation of Ca(OH)2.

The reaction is exothermic in nature

so the balanced thermo-chemical equation will be

CaCl2(aq) + H2O (l)  ---> Ca(OH)2   + 2HCl + Heat


In a pack of NH4NO3 and H2O hydrolysis of NH4+ will occur as

NH4NO3 (aq)  + H2O(l)  + Heat ---> NH4OH(aq)  + HNO3 (aq)

It is an endothermic reaction
