Gerald's science teacher mixed room temperature samples of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide in a large beaker. The solutio

n still looked clear like water, but when the students carefully touched the beaker one at a time, it felt warm to the touch. Why did the beaker most likely feel warm?
A. The two liquids were not soluble in water.
B. The release of a gas heated the solution.
C. The energy of mixing warmed the solution.
D. A chemical reaction was producing a new substance.

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

      HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_{2}O

This means a new substance has been formed and a chemical change has taken place.

A chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed by the reactant molecules is known as an endothermic reaction.  

For example, A + B + Heat \rightarrow AB

On the other hand, a chemical reaction in which heat energy is released by the reactant molecules is known as an exothermic reaction.  

For example, C + D \rightarrow CD + Heat is an exothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given situation the beaker most likely felt warm because a chemical reaction was producing a new substance.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The half life is     H_{1/2}= 7333.3sec

Explanation:

   The half life of a first order  reaction is mathematically represented as

                          H_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{Rate Constant }

 Substituting   9.45 * 10^{-5}s^{-1}  for the rate constant

                         H_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{9.45*10^{-5}}

                                 H_{1/2}= 7333.3sec

Can someone help me with number 1 and 2 plz!
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

1) 0 N

2) 8 N

Explanation:

The net force is the sum of all of the forces acting on the object.

For question 1, we can see that there is a force of 5 N acting to the right and 5 N acting to the left.  If we define the right to be positive and the left to be negative, then the net force equals:

Fnet = 5N - 5N = 0 N

Therefore, the net force in question 1 is 0 N.

For question 2, the process is very similar.  We want to find the sum of the forces acting on the object.  In this case, there are forces of 3 N and 5 N acting to the right.

Fnet = 3 N + 5 N = 8 N

Therefore, the net force in question 2 is 8 N.

Hope this helps!
