How do you know if a reaction is endothermic?

1 answer:

6 0

In an exothermic reaction, heat is produced along with products. But in endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed. If the number of products is less than the sum of the enthalpies of the reactants, the reaction will be exothermic. If the number of products is more than the sum of the enthalpies of the reactants, the reaction is endothermic.

(a) a 0.2 m potassium hydroxide solution is titrated with a 0.1 m nitric acid solution. (i) balanced equation: (ii)what would be

Stells [14]

$\text{KOH} (aq) + \text{HNO}_3 (aq) \to \text{KNO}_3 (aq) + \text{H}_2\text{O} (l)$

The solution shall contain only $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ (and water) at the equivalence point. Both potassium hydroxide and nitric acid exist as strong electrolytes. As a result, $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , the salt derived from a reaction between the two species would undergo hydrolysis of a negligible extent. This neutralization reaction therefore be neutral at the equilibrium point.

The question states that the solution is "titrated with a ... nitric acid solution" indicating that $\text{HNO}_3$ is added to the initially-basic solution. PH value of the solution would keep decreasing as the volume of the acid added increases. The final solution would be acidic as it contains not only water and $\text{KNO}_3 (aq)$ , but some $\text{HNO}_3$ as well. Bromothymol blue would therefore demonstrates a yellow color, the color it present in an acidic solution, at the end of the titration.

Which of the following is teue of solids? A. They have less kinetic energy than liquids, gases, and plasmas. B.They have slightl

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The correct answer is A because particles in solids are packed more compactly than those in liquids, gases, and plasmas, due to the decreased kinetic engergy

Hope this helps

The combustion reaction described in part (b) occurred in a closed room containing 5.56 10g of air

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Combustion reaction is given below,

C₂H₅OH(l) + 3O₂(g) ⇒ 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)

Provided that such a combustion has a normal enthalpy,

ΔH°rxn = -1270 kJ/mol

That would be 1 mol reacting to release of ethanol,

⇒ -1270 kJ of heat

Now,

0.383 Ethanol mol responds to release or unlock,

Given that :

specific heat c = 1.005 J/(g. °C)

m = 5.56 ×10⁴ g

Using the relation:

q = mcΔT

- 486.34 = 5.56 ×10⁴ × 1.005 × ΔT

ΔT= (486.34 × 1000 )/5.56×10⁴ × 1.005

ΔT= 836.88 °C

ΔT= T₂ - T₁

T₂ = ΔT + T₁

T₂ = 836.88 °C + 21.7°C

T₂ = 858.58 °C

Therefore, the final temperature of the air in the room after combustion is 858.58 °C
