The formation of nitric acid from nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen can be written as,
N₂ + H₂ + 3O₂ --> 2HNO₃
The net enthalpy of formation of nitric acid is calculated by,
Hrxn = Hproduct - Hreactant
Since all the reactants are in their elemental forms, the simplified equation would be,
Hrxn = Hproduct
Substituting,
Hrxn = (-186.81 kJ/mol)(2 mols)
<em>Answer: -372.42 kJ</em>
I believe the correct answer would be option 4. The only statement that is true would be that it is difficult to responsibly dispose of nuclear waste products. This is because nuclear waste products are radioactive and are very harmful to the society and to the environment. It could cause serious damage to every being in contact to it.
Answer:
b) sharpening a pencil
Explanation:
If you melt lead, boil water, or dissolve sugar in water, you can return all of them back to their original state. If you sharpen a pencil, you can't reattach the shavings as they were originally.
Zeff = Z - S
Here, Z is the number of protons in the nucleus, that is, atomic number, and S is the number of nonvalence electrons.
For boron, the electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄
Z = 5, S = 2
Zeff = 5-2 = +3
For O, electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄
Z = 8, S = 2
Zeff = 8-2 = +6
Hence, the correct answer is second option, that is, +3 and +6, the Zeff of boron is smaller in comparison to O, thus, boron exhibits a bigger size than O.
