0.1 km

2cm/year * 5000 yrs = 10000 cm

1cm= .01 m

1km = 1000 m

so the answer is 0.1 km

Iron(II) chloride is formed from the reaction between iron and copper(II) chloride. Fe + CuCl2 FeCl2 + Cu If the reactants have
elena55 [62]

Answer: see figure attached and explanation below.

Explanation:

1) Chemical equation (given):

Fe + CuCl₂ → Cu + FeCl₂

2) ΔHf reactants: -256 kJ/mol (given)

3) ΔHf products: - 321 kJ/mol (given)

4) ΔH reaction = ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants = - 321 kJ/mol - (- 256 kJ/mol) = - 65 kJ/mol

5) Conclusion:

i) Since ΔHf of products is less (more negative) than ΔHf of reactants, the reaction is exhotermic: the reaction released energy, which is the reason why the products content less potential energy than the reactants.

ii) Then, the energy diagram is the typical one of an exothermic reaction: the products start a certain potential energy level, the energy incrases until reaching the activation energy (the energy barrier to form the activated complex) and then energy decreases until a level below the energy of the reactants.

iii) See the attached figure with such kind of diagram showing the products at a lower level than the reactans

Suppose you want to determine which type of paper falls the fastest; an unfolded sheet of paper, a sheet of paper folded into fo
AnnZ [28]
For starters, I would get the same height for each paper, such as a counter top. Then, I would make said paper. You would use a timer of course, maybe even something like a speed gun to calculate the speed as said paper falls. You would push each paper off the counter top and calculate the speed for each paper. This is the easiest way to prove your hypothesis.

One way to determine the degree of saturation of a solid-liquid solution is to drop a crystal of the solute into the solution.
Dafna1 [17]

The answer is D: Saturated.

A saturated solution is one in which the exact maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.  So, new solute will not dissolve in the solution.  In contrast, an unsaturated solution can hold more solute, so if that option were correct, the crystal would have dissolved.

The other two terms are a bit more complicated.  A supersaturated solution is one holding an amount of solute above the sustainable limit.  Because of that, when more solute is added, the solution will immediately adjust, and some solute will come out of solution in a precipitate.  Because the crystal isn't growing, we can eliminate this option.

A concentrated solution is one holding a relatively large amount of solute.  However, you can have concentrated solutions that are saturated and unconcentrated (the word for this is dilute) solutions that aren't saturated.  Therefore, we can say that because the crystal doesn't dissolve, this solution is saturated, but we can't say with certainty that it is concentrated.

Because the first three options are invalid, as described above, while the scenario does describe a saturated solution, D is the correct answer.

How to calculate delta S surroundings? calculate Delta S(surr) at the indicated temperature for a reaction having each of the fo
astraxan [27]
You can use the equation ΔS(surr)=q(surr)/T or ΔS(surr)=-q(rxn)/T.
the two equations are equal since we know that the energy the system (reactoin) puts out just goes into the surroundings.  
(In other words q(surr)=-q(rxn))

Using the equation, <span>ΔS(surr)=-(-283kJ/298K)=0.9497kJ/K or 949.7J/K

This answer makes sense since the reaction is exothermic which means it released energy into the system which usually causes the entropy to increase.

I hope that helps.</span>
