Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When reactants absorb energy in a chemical reaction then products have more energy than the reactants. The value of \Delta H is positive for an endothermic reaction.

Whereas when reactants release energy in a chemical reaction then products have less energy than the reactants. The value of \Delta H is negative for an exothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that if the enthalpy value for a reaction is negative, then it indicates that the reaction is exothermic and heat is released to the surroundings.

The answer is; D

Enthalpy is the system’s internal energy ( considering the product of its pressure and volume). When the enthalpy is negative, it means that the products have a lower energy level than the reactants - meaning the system has dispensed some energy into the environment.

Think about the lab procedure you just read. Label each factor below with V for “variable” or C for “constant”.
luda_lava [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>The temperature of the gas: V</h3>

The temperature of gas is a variable quantity. It can be changed by changing energy or pressure of gas.

<h3>The amount of gas in the tube (in terms of mass and moles): C</h3>

It is a constant entity. As mass of gas once taken can not be changed by changing temperature, pressure etc.

<h3>The radius of the tube: C</h3>

The radius of tube cannot change at any rate.

<h3>The temperature of the gas (changed by the water surrounding it):  V</h3>

It can be changed by changing the temperature of water surrounding it.

<h3>The type of gas: C</h3>

It can never be changed.

<h3>The pressure of the gas: V</h3>

It can be changed by simply changing temperature and volume of gas.

in a given homologous series of hydrocarbons, the boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases. the
vitfil [10]

The boiling point of hydrocarbons generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.

<h3>What are hydrocarbons?</h3>

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds which here composed of hydrogen and carbon alone.

Hydrocarbons are grouped into families or homologous series based on a reactive group known as the gincyiial group

The homologous series include

  • alkanes
  • alkenes
  • alkynes

The boiling point generally increases as the size of the molecules increases because more bonds are needs to be broken in larger organic molecules.
