Identify and explain exothermic and endothermic reactions in terms of energy transfer

Chemistry

Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
5 0
Exothermic reaction is when the system releases energy to the surrounding, the energy (in the perspective of the system) will have a sign of negative, as the system is transferring energy towards the surrounding.

Endothermic reaction is when the system is absorbing energy from the surrounding, the energy (in the perspective of the system) will have a sign of positive, as energy is transferred to the system.

.) Neon and HF have approximately the same molecular masses. a.)Explain why the boiling points of Neon and HF differ b.)Compare
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.

b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.

Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly)  due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.

What is a serial dilution?
lord [1]

A serial dilution is the stepwise dilution of a substance in solution. Usually the dilution factor at each step is constant, resulting in a geometric progression of the concentration in a logarithmic fashion.

Convert the following with the correct number of significant figures:
larisa [96]

Answer:

1.78 × 10⁹ μg

Explanation:

We have to convert 1.78 kg to μg.

Step 1: Convert 1.78 kilograms to grams

We will use the conversion factor 1 kg = 10³ g.

1.78 kg × 10³ g/1 kg = 1.78 × 10³ g

Step 2: Convert 1.78 × 10³ grams to micrograms

We will use the conversion factor 1 g = 10⁶ μg.

1.78 × 10³ g × 10⁶ μg/1 g = 1.78 × 10⁹ μg

If 40.0 g of water at 70.0°c is mixed with 40.0 g of ethanol at 10.0°c, what is the final temperature of the mixture?
FinnZ [79.3K]
When the heat lost by water = heat gained by ethanol

∴(  M* C * ΔT )w  = (M*C*ΔT ) eth

when Mw mass of water = 40 g 

C specific heat of water = 4.18

ΔT = (70- Tf) 

and M(eth) mass (ethanol) = 40 g 

C specific heat of ethanol = 2.44 

ΔT = (Tf - 10 ) 

by substitution:

40* 4.18 * (70 - Tf) = 40 * 2.44 * (Tf-10) 

∴Tf = 47.9 °C
