The correct option is this: WHEN THE ENTHALPY CHANGE OF THE REACTION IS POSITIVE, THE REACTION IS ENDOTHERMIC.
All chemical reactions are divided into two classes, these are exothermic and endothermic reaction. An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which energy is lost to the environment, thus the enthalpy change of the reaction is negative. An endothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which energy is absorbed from the environment, thus the enthaply change of the reaction is positive.

Answer: When the enthalpy change of the reaction is positive, the reaction is endothermic.

Explanation: Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be positive.

\Delta H=H_{products}-H_{reactants}

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Pyridine will neutralize the acid by-product of the reaction.

Explanation:

In the esterifications, hydrochloric acid is released as a by-product that reacts directly with the pyridine in the medium to give the pyridine hydrochloride.

Aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium phosphate are mixed. What is the precipitate and how many molecules are formed
kykrilka [37]

Aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium phosphate are mixed. What is the precipitate and how many molecules are formed?

Barium nitrate has a chemical symbol of Ba(NO3)2 and potassium phosphate has a chemical symbol K2PO4. The reaction between these two is a double replacement reaction yielding barium phosphate and potassium nitrate.

The chemical equation representing the reaction is,

            Ba(NO3)2 + K2PO4 à KNO3 + BaPO4

Aspirin (C9H8O4) may be synthesized by mixing salicylic acid (C7H6O3) with excess acetic anhydride (C4H6O3).
diamong [38]

Answer:

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.

Explanation:

C_7H_6O_3 + C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4 + C_2H_4O_2

Moles of salicyclic acid = \frac{2.0 g}{138 g/mol}=0.01449 mol

According to reaction 1 mole of salicyclic acid gives 1 mole of aspirin .

Then 0.01449 mole of salicylic acid will give :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01449 mol=0.01449 mol of asprin

Mass of 0.01449 moles of aspirin :

= 0.01449 mol × 180 g/mol = 2.6082 g

Theoretical yield of aspirin = 2.6082 g

Experimental yield of aspirin = 1.7 g

The percent yield for this reaction:

\%(Yield)=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

=\frac{1.7 g}{2.6082 g}\times 100=65.18\%

65.18% is the percent yield for this reaction.
