5. How much heat (in calories) is absorbed by a reaction when
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

1.2 × 10⁴ cal

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of water (m): 300 g
  • Initial temperature: 80 °C
  • Final temperature: 40°C

We can calculate the heat released by the water (Q_w) when it cools using the following expression.

Q_w = c \times m \times (T_f - T_i)

where

c is the specific heat capacity of water (1 cal/g.°C)

Q_w = \frac{1cal}{g.\°C}  \times 300g \times (40\°C - 80\°C) = -1.2 \times 10^{4} cal

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the water (Q_w) and the heat absorbed by the reaction (Q_r) is zero.

Q_w + Q_r = 0\\Q_r = -Q_w = 1.2 \times 10^{4} cal

Give the number of lone pairs around the central atom and the molecular geometry of XeF4.A)0 lone pairs, tetrahedralB)1 lone pai
vovangra [49]

Answer: 2 lone pairs, square planar

Explanation:

Using the VSEPR ( Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion)Theory

To calculate the number of lone pairs electron can be done using the formula;

Number of electrons = ½ (V+N-C+A)

V mean valency of the central atom

N means number of monovalent bonding atoms

C means charge on cation

A means charges on anion

Therefore, to calculate the number of lone pair electron C=A=0;

Number of electrons = ½ (8+4) = 12/2 = 6

Number of bonding pair = 4

Number of lone pairs of electron = 6-4 = 2

The hybridrization of the compound is sp3d2 because the number of electrons around the central atom is 6.

The geometry of the compound is square planar and this is because of the repulsion between the bonding pair of electrons and lone pair of electrons which causes the lone pair of electrons to lie in a perpendicular plane in order to acquire stability.

Your teacher asks you to follow the instructions in a lab to produce several known chemical reactions. During these procedures,
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

There are five evidences that tell whether a chemical change has occurred. These are change of color, change of odor, change in temperature or energy, formation of gas and formation of a precipitate.

Explanation:

Chemical Change- This is a type of chemical reaction which occurs when the properties of one or more atoms change and results into a<u> newly formed substance. </u>

Let's have a further discussion of the evidences.

1. Change of Color- Color change is caused by the combination of two or more substance with different molecular structures. A popular example of this is the Statue of the Liberty, which is made of copper plates. Due to the exposure of copper to elements like water, it changed color.

2. Change of Odor- This can be best presented with rotting food. During the rotting process, the food undergoes a chemical reaction. The result is a rotten smell.

3. Change in Temperature or Energy- An example of this is the burning of wood. Its change is considered non-reversible.

4. Formation of Gas- This can be best presented with the cake batter (the one being used to make cakes or pancakes). The batter rises which means it is forming gas. This is caused by the reaction of the baking soda and the acid.

5. Formation of a Precipitate- This occurs when two soluble salts combine and their outcome is an insoluble salt (this is the precipitate).

Take note that if any of these evidences occur, then there's definitely a chemical reaction.

How many molecules are there in 2.30g of NH3
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

8.13x10^22 molecules

Explanation:

We can use the Avogadro's number(6.022 x 10^23 units / mole)

2.30 g NH3 (1 mol / 17.03 g ) (6.022 x 10^23 molecules / 1 mol ) = 8.13x10^22 molecules

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!
