Answer:

Baking of bread is an endothermic process. 

Explanation:

In order to bake bread a constant supply of heat energy is required. Since absorption of heat takes place while bread gets baked this is an endothermic reaction. The microbe used in bread making is yeast which helps in puffing up the bread. 

Puffing up of bread is caused by the release of carbon dioxide by yeast when it feeds on the sugars in the dough. For yeast to become active it should come in contact with warm water. Thus heat is an essential input in bread making process.

REY [17]

Answer:

q < 0, w > 0, the sign of ΔE cannot be determined from the information given

Explanation:

Determination of sign of q

Temperature of the water bath before the reaction = 25 °C

Temperature of the water bath after the completion of the reaction = 28 °C

After the completion of the reaction, temperature of the water bath is increased that means heat is released during the reaction and flows out of the system.

If heat is absorbed by the system, then q is indicated by positive sign and if heat is released by the system, then q is indicated by negative sign.

As in the given case, heat is released by the system, so sign of q is negative, or q < 0

Determination of sign of w

After the completion of the reaction, piston moved downward, that means volume of the system decreases or compression occur. During the compression, work is done on the system.

if work is done on the system, sign of w is positive.

If work is done by the system, sign of w is negative.

In the given case, work is done on the system, therefore sign of w is positive, or w > 0

Determination of sign of ΔE

Relationship between ΔE, q and w is given by first law of thermodynamics:

ΔE = q + w

In this case, q is positive and w is negative, so the sign of ΔE depends of magnitude of q and w. As magnitude of w and q cannot be determined in this case, thus, the given information is insufficient for the determination of sign of ΔE.

So, among the given option, option c is correct.

q < 0, w > 0, the sign of ΔE cannot be determined from the information given

A solution of phosphoric acid was made by dissolving 10.8 g of H3PO4 in 133.00 mL of water. The resulting volume was 137 mL. Cal

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Density is: 1.05 g/ml

Mole fraction solute: 0.015

Mole fraction solvent: 0.095

Molarity: 0.80 M

Molality: 0.82 m

Explanation:

A typical excersise of solution.

It is more confortable to make a table for this.

| masss | volume | mol

solute | | |

solvent | | |

solution | | |

Let's complete, what we have.

| masss | volume | mol

solute | 10.8g | |

solvent | | 133 mL |

solution | | 137 mL |

We can first, know how many moles are 10.8 g

Molar Mass H3PO4 = 97.99 g/mol

Mass / Molar mass = mol

10.8 g / 97.99 g/m = 0.110 mol

Density of water is 1 g/ml (it is a very knowly value)

From this data, we can know water mass, solvent.

Density = mass / volume

1 g/ml = mass / 133 mL

Mass = 133 g

We can also have the moles, by the molar mass of water 18 g/m

133 g / 18 g/m = 7.39 mol

| masss | volume | mol

solute | 10.8g | | 0.110 mol

solvent | 133g | 133 mL | 7.39 mol

solution | 143.8g | 137 mL | 7.50 mol

Mass of solution will be solute mass + solvent mass

Moles of solution will be solute moles + solvent moles

Now we can calculate everything.

Molarity means mol of solute in 1 L of solution. (mol/L)

We have to convert 137 mL in L (/1000)

0.137L so → 0.110 m / 0.137L = 0.80 M

Molality means mol of solute in 1kg of solvent.

We have to convert 133g in kg (/1000)

0.133 kg so → 0.110 m/0.133 kg = 0.82 m

Density is mass / volume

Solution density will be solution mass / solution volume

143.8 g/137 mL = 1.05 g/m

Molar fraction is : solute moles / total moles or solvent moles/total moles.

You can also (x 100%) to have a percent of them.

Remember sum of molar fraction = 1

Molar fraction of solute = 0.110 mol / 7.50mol = 0.015

Molar fraction of solvent = 7.39 mol / 7.50 mol = 0.985
