\boxed{{\text{B}}{\text{. Deposition}}} is an exothermic change.

Further Explanation:

Phase change:

The phase change is defined as the change from one state to another state without altering its chemical composition. It is also known as a phase transition, state change or physical change.

Phase changes are of two types:

1. Endothermic change: These changes take up energy from the surroundings, usually in the form of heat. For example, melting of ice is an endothermic phase change. It involves the change of solid state (ice) to the liquid state (water). Energy is to be supplied for this process and therefore it is an endothermic process.

2. Exothermic change: These changes release energy or heat to the surrounding environment. For example, freezing of water. It involves the conversion of liquid state (water) to the solid state (ice). Here, energy is released for this process and that’s why it is an exothermic process.

(A) Sublimation: It is the conversion of a substance directly from solid to vapor phase, without going through the liquid state. Naphthalene and dry ice are substances that undergo sublimation. The forces between the solid particles are very strong. In order to convert it into the gas phase, energy is to be supplied from the surrounding environment. So sublimation is an endothermic process.

(B) Deposition: It is the phase transition in which the vapors are directly converted into solid-state, without passing through the liquid intermediate. It is just the reverse of sublimation and is therefore known as desublimation. The gas particles have a high degree of randomness and the least intermolecular forces in them. So its particles move in all directions with high speed. In order to convert them into the solid-state, their motion needs to slow down and for this, energy is released. So deposition is an exothermic process.

(C) Vaporization: It is the phase transition that converts the liquid into vapors. In order to change the liquid state to the vapor state, the temperature is to be increased or heating is done. Heat is supplied to the system from the surrounding environment. So vaporization is an endothermic process.

(D) Melting: It is the phase transition that results in the conversion of solid-state to the liquid state. Since the solid particles have stronger intermolecular forces between them as compared to that in liquids. In order to overcome such strong forces, energy is supplied in the form of heat and therefore melting is an endothermic process.

The phase change that is an exothermic process is B. deposition. It is an exothermic process because it requires a release of heat to change from one phase to the other.

<h3>FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>

Some changes in state are exothermic process while others are endothermic.

Exothermic Process

  • Exothermic processes release heat to the surroundings.
  • The release of heat causes the particles of the substance to move slower and have less energy. Less energetic collisions of the particles results in the particles sticking to each other because there isn't sufficient energy to overcome the attractive forces acting on them.
  • This results in the warming up of the surroundings which includes the container holding the substance.

Endothermic Process

  • Endothermic processes are processes that absorb heat from the surroundings.
  • When particles absorb heat, they start to move faster and spread out.
  • With the additional energy, the particles move faster and are able to overcome the attractive forces holding them together.
  • This causes a cooling of the surrounding or the container.

A) Sublimation

<em>Sublimation is phase change from solid to gas without passing through the liquid state. For the closely packed particles of the solid to spread out and change to its gaseous state, they must absorb heat. Therefore, this process is endothermic.</em>

B) Deposition

<em>This is the process of changing from gas to solid state without passing through the liquid state. For the particles of the gas to turn to solid, they must lose their energy so that when they collide with each other the attractive forces will hold them together forming the solid. This is an example of an exothermic process.</em>

C. Vaporization

<em>Particles of a vapor are farther away from each other than the particles of liquids. Liquids, therefore, need to be heated to turn them into gas or vapor. Since it requires absorption of heat, this is endothermic.</em>

D. Melting

<em>Solid particles are more closely packed than liquids. They are held by strong attractive forces that keep their movement limited to vibration in place. To change solids to liquids, their attractive forces must be overcome by heating. Absorption of heat makes the particles vibrate harder and overcome the attractive forces holding the solid together. </em>

A 25 liter gas cylinder contains 10 mole of carbon dioxide. Calculate the pressure, in atm, of the gas at 325K.
Arada [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure of carbon dioxide gas is 11 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the pressure of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = ?

V = Volume of gas = 25 L

n = number of moles of gas = 10 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the gas = 325 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P\times 25L=10mol\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 325K\\\\P=11atm

Hence, the pressure of carbon dioxide gas is 11 atm

Write a balanced chemical equation describing the oxidation of the bromide ion by solid xenon trioxide to produce bromine liquid
ki77a [65]

Answer:

6Br⁻ + XeO₃ + 6H⁺ → 3Br₂ + Xe + 3H₂O  

Explanation:

First, we need to write the half-reactions:

2Br⁻ → Br₂ + 2e⁻ Oxidation -Balanced yet-

XeO₃ →  Xe Reduction

To balance the reduction in acidic aqueous solution we need to add waters in the other side of the reaction as oxygens are present:

XeO₃ →  Xe + 3H₂O

And H⁺ as hydrogens from water we have:

XeO₃ + 6H⁺ →  Xe + 3H₂O

To balance the charge:

<h3>XeO₃ + 6H⁺ + 6e⁻ →  Xe + 3H₂O  Reduction -Balanced-</h3><h3 />

To cancel out the electrons of both half-reaction we need to multiply oxidation 3 times:

6Br⁻ → 3Br₂ + 6e⁻

XeO₃ + 6H⁺ + 6e⁻ →  Xe + 3H₂O  

And the balanced reaction in acidic aqueous solution is the sum of both half-reactions:

<h3>6Br⁻ + XeO₃ + 6H⁺ → 3Br₂ + Xe + 3H₂O  </h3>

Ammonium nitrate is an ingredient in cold packs used by sports trainers for injured athletes. Calculate the change in temperatur
Ronch [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

First, we need to use the correct expression:

Q = m*Cp*ΔT  (1)

Q = n*ΔH  (2)

These are the 2 expressions to calculate heat or energy.

Now, we want to know the change of temperature of the nitrate in water after being added, so with the innitial data of nitrate, we can calculate heat using the second expression. First, we need to calculate moles with the molecular mass:

n = m/MM

n = 42/80.1 = 0.52 moles

With these moles, we can calculate heat with the ΔH of this reaction:

Q = 0.52 * 25.7 = 13.364 kJ or 13,364 J

However, this heat as is being absorbed, the value would be negative.

Now that we have heat, we can use expression (1) and plug these values to solve for ΔT, but before, we need to know the total mass of the solution (water + nitrate)

m = 250 + 42 = 292 g

now, solving for ΔT:

-13,364 = 292 * 4.18 * ΔT

ΔT = -13,363 / (292 * 4.18)

ΔT = -10.95 °C

Certain compound contains 7.3% carbon, 4.5% hydrogen, 36.4% oxygen, and 31.8% nitrogen. It’s reality molecular mass is 176.0. Fi
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Data

carbon        7.3%          =     7.3g

hydrogen    4.5%         =      4.5g

oxygen       36.4%         =     36.4 g

nitrogen     31.8%         =     31.8 g

Now

For carbon

                    12 g --------------------1 mol

                    7.3 g     -------------     x

                       x = 7.3/12 = 0.608 mol

For hydrogen

                 1 g   --------------------  1 mol

                 4.5 g  ------------------    x

                   x = 4.5 mol

For oxygen

             16 g ------------------- 1 mol

             36.4 g ----------------    x

             x = 2.28 mol

For nitrogen

              14 g   ----------------   1 mol

              31.8 g ---------------    x

             x = 2.27 mol

Now divide by the lowest result, the is 0.608 from carbon

carbon              0.608/0.608 = 1

hydrogen           4.5/ 0.608 = 7.4

oxygen              2.28/0.608 = 3.75

nitrogen             2.27/0.608 = 3.73

Empirical formula = CH₇O₄N₄
