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}

Calculate the amount of heat water absorbs from a piece of hot metal using the following data: 75.0 g of cold water is placed in
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Amount of heat absorbed by water is 2604.54 J.

Explanation:

Amount of heat absorbed by water = m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T_{water}

where m represents mass, C represents specific heat and \Delta T represents change in temperature.

Here m_{water}=75.0 g , C_{water}=4.184J/(g.^{0}\textrm{C}) and \Delta T = (final temperature - initial temperature) = (29.5-21.2) ^{0}\textrm{C} = 8.3 ^{0}\textrm{C}

So, amount of heat heat absorbed by water

     = (75.0g)\times (4.184\frac{J}{g.^{0}\textrm{C}})\times (8.3^{0}\textrm{C})

     = 2604.54 J

Please help me with my 8th grade chemistry, I'm behind and don't understand it at all
padilas [110]

When a material is heated, the kinetic energy of that material increases and its atoms and molecules move about more. This means that each atom will take up more space due to its movement so the material will expand. ... Some metals expand more than others due to differences in the forces between the atoms / molecules.

What occurs when Cr^3+ ions are reduced to Cr^2+ ions?
DiKsa [7]
D:

When electrons are gained, the charge of the atom decreases.

When you are given an atom with a charge, the oxidation of that atom is the charge. So by going from a Cr^3+ (Oxidation Number = 3) to a Cr^2+ (Oxidation Number = 2), the Oxidation Number thus decreases.
