So ions are atoms that have either gained or lost electrons to complete their energy levels.

In order for a positive ion to be formed, an atom must lose electrons.

In order for a negative ion to be formed, an atom must gain electrons.

When an atom loses and electron, it loses a negative charge and then becomes a positive ion.

The aromatic hydrocarbon cymene (C10H14) is found in nearly 100 spices and fragrances, including coriander, anise, and thyme. Th
andrezito [222]

Answer : The thermal energy produced during the complete combustion of one mole of cymene is -7193 kJ/mole

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat released by the combustion.

q=c\times \Delta T

where,

q = heat released = ?

c = specific heat of calorimeter = 3.640kJ/^oC

\Delta T = change in temperature = 19.35^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=3.640kJ/^oC\times (19.35)^oC

q=70.43kJ

Thus, the heat released by the combustion = 70.43 kJ

Now we have to calculate the molar enthalpy combustion.

\Delta H=-\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = molar enthalpy combustion = ?

q = heat released = 70.43 kJ

n = number of moles cymene = \frac{\text{Mass of cymene}}{\text{Molar mass of cymene}}=\frac{1.608g}{164.22g/mol}=0.009792mole

\Delta H=-\frac{70.43kJ}{0.009792mole}=-7193kJ/mole

Therefore, the thermal energy produced during the complete combustion of one mole of cymene is -7193 kJ/mole

Write the formulas of all species in solution for the following ionic compounds by writing their dissolving equations:
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

1. RbOH(s) ⇒ Rb⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

2. Na₂CO₃(s) ⇒ 2 Na⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)

3. (NH₄)₂SeO₃(s) ⇒2 NH₄⁺(aq) + SeO₃²⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Let's consider the dissolving equations for the following compounds.

1. Rubidium hydroxide

RbOH(s) ⇒ Rb⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

2. Sodium carbonate

Na₂CO₃(s) ⇒ 2 Na⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)

3. Ammonium selenite

(NH₄)₂SeO₃(s) ⇒2 NH₄⁺(aq) + SeO₃²⁻(aq)
