The importance of the Galapagos to Darwin theory is chances  Darwin discovered several species of finches that varied from island to island .
A big part of reason it is so famous is because of Darwin finches.
which are 12 <span>species ,also the Darwin theory is  only gradually accepted because people don't believe in them today</span>

Given the following heats of combustion. CH3OH(l) + 3/2 O2(g) CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l) ΔH°rxn = -726.4 kJ C(graphite) + O2(g) CO2(g) ΔH
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The standard enthalpy of formation of methanol is, -238.7 kJ/mole

Explanation:

The formation reaction of CH_3OH will be,

C(s)+2H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow CH_3OH(g),\Delta H_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

C(graphite)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g), \Delta H_1=-393.5kJ/mole..[1]

H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l), \Delta H_2=-285.8kJ/mole..[2]

CH_3OH(g)+\frac{3}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l) , \Delta H_3=-726.4kJ/mole..[3]

Now we will reverse the reaction 3, multiply reaction 2 by 2  then adding all the equations, Using Hess's law:

We get :

C(graphite)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g) , \Delta H_1=-393.5kJ/mole..[1]

2H_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l) ,\Delta H_2=2\times (-285.8kJ/mole)=-571.6kJ/mol..[2]

CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow CH_3OH(g)+\frac{3}{2}O_2(g) ,\Delta H_3=726.4kJ/mole [3]

The expression for enthalpy of formation of C_2H_4 will be,

\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+2\times \Delta H_2+\Delta H_3

\Delta H=(-393.5kJ/mole)+(-571.6kJ/mole)+(726.4kJ/mole)

\Delta H=-238.7kJ/mole

The standard enthalpy of formation of methanol is, -238.7 kJ/mole

How many moles of solute are in 53.1 mL of 12.5M HCI?
Deffense [45]
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters.

From this relation, we can figure out the number of moles of solute by multiplying the molarity of the solution by the volume in liters.

We have 53.1 mL, or 0.0531 L, of a 12.5 M, or 12.5 mol/L, solution. Multiplying 12.5 mol/L by 0.0531 L, we obtain 0.664 moles. So, in this volume of solution, there are 0.664 moles of solute (HCl).

What is the charge on the cation in the ionic compund sodium sulfide
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Since this is an ionic compound, you must balance the charges so that overall charge of the compound is neutral. Sodium, an alkali metal, has a tendency to lose one electron. As a result sodium normally carries a positive one charge. Sulfur, a nonmetal, has a tendency to gain 2 electrons.
