How does heat affect the motion of atoms?

Chemistry

Due to heat , the kinetic energy of the atoms in the substance increases due to which they start vibrating vigorously and the inter-molecular attraction decreases and the substance increases in volume. For example, on boiling water...heat energy imparted makes the volume increase and finally turn into steam or water vapour in air.(The inter-molecular space in air is more than that in water.)

Write a balanced equation for the following reaction:
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Silver chloride reacts with sodium phosphate to yield sodium chloride and silver phosphate. This can be written as follow:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

The above equation can be balanced as follow:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

There are 3 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of NaCl as shown below:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

There are 3 atoms of Cl on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of AgCl as shown below:

3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

Thus, the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1

A student is trying to develop a model of an instant heat pack. What is the essential characteristic of the chemical reaction th
Lana71 [14]

The standard enthalpy of reaction should be negative.

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

A thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.

Inside the heat pack are two chemicals that get mixed when you smush them together. As they mix, some weak bonds are broken, which takes a little bit of energy. But new, stronger bonds form which release energy. Releasing that energy causes the surroundings to heat up.

Hence, option B is correct.
