The answer is: C. decomposition.

Decomposition is reaction where one substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances.

Balanced chemical reaction of water decomposition: 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂.

This is decomposition reaction, because from one molecule (water) two molecules (hydrogen and oxygen) are produced.

Chemical decomposition is opposite of chemical synthesis.

Why do we experience the changing of the seasons on earth

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Earth's axis and position around the sun.

Explanation:

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons to change. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth acquire the Sun's most direct rays(Or heat) because of the orbital rotation of Earth. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer inside the Northern Hemisphere. And whilst the South Pole tilts towards the Sun, it is winter within the Northern Hemisphere and vise versa.

Consider the following reaction at constant pressure. Use the information provided below to determine the value of ΔS at 473 K.

Elis [28]

Answer:

The reaction will be spontaneous

Explanation:

To determine if the reaction will be spontaneous or not at this temperature, we need to calculate the Gibbs's energy using the following formula:

$\Delta G= \Delta H - T * \Delta S$

If the Gibbs's energy is negative, the reaction will be spontaneous, but if it's positive it will not.

Calculating the $\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$ :

$\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$

Now, other factor we need to determine is the sign of the S variation. When talking about gases, the more moles you have in your system the more enthropic it is.

In this reaction you go from 7 moles to 8 moles of gas, so you can say that you are going from one enthropy to another higher than the first one. This results in: $\Delta S>0[/tex}Back to this expression: [tex]\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$

If the variation of S is positive, the Gibbs's energy will be negative always and the reaction will be spontaneous.

T OR F

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The statement is false. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The hydrogen bond or bridge is a type of dipole-dipole interaction that is generated from the attraction of a hydrogen atom and a very electronegative atom (oxygen, fluorine or nitrogen). Examples of hydrogen bridge molecules: Water (H20), ammonia (NH3).
