Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, the bonds between the reactant molecules tend to break leading to the formation of new bonds to produce products.

So, in order to break the bonds between the reactant molecules, energy is required to overcome the attraction between the atoms.

To form new bonds, energy gets released when two atoms come closer to each other.  Hence, formation of bond releases energy.

As in the given reaction it is shown that \Delta H < 0, that is, enthalpy change is negative. Hence, energy is released as it is an exothermic process.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement energy released as the bonds in the reactants is broken is greater than the energy absorbed as the bonds in the products are formed, is true about the bond energies in this reaction.

The Kinetic Molecular Theory describes the behavior as well as the characteristics of an ideal gas. What are the five postulates
sineoko [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The postulates of the kinetic theory of matter are;

  1. Every substance is made up of tiny particles called molecules. Brownian motion and diffusion illustrates this fact.
  2. The molecules that compose matter are in constant random motion.
  3. There exists an attractive force between the molecules in matter. The attractive forces between gases are negligible. Solids have a definite shape and volume due to a high magnitude of intermolecular forces. Liquids have a volume but no definite shape due to weaker intermolecular forces. Gases have the weakest intermolecular forces hence the do not have both a shape and volume. They take on the volume of the container into which they are put. This illustrates this fact.
  4. The actual volume occupied by gas molecules is negligible relative to the volume of the container. The fact that gases are easily compressible illustrates this fact.
  5. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.

Which value represents a car speeding to the right?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

60 m/s

Explanation:

Meters per second (m/s) is the units for velocity/speed.

The positive magnitude, +60, indicates that the velocity is moving in the right direction.
