How is enthalpy used to predict whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic?

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}

Which best explains why the trend in noble gas boiling points increases down the group?A) increasing dispersion interactions B)
zhenek [66]

Answer:

A) increasing dispersion interactions

Explanation:

Polarizability allows gases containing atoms or nonpolar molecules (for example,  to condense. In these gases, the most important kind of interaction produces <em>dispersion forces</em>, <em>attractive forces that arise as a result of temporary dipoles induced in atoms or molecules.</em>

<em>Dispersion forces</em>, which are also called <em>London forces</em>, usually <u>increase with molar mass because molecules with larger molar mass tend to have more electrons</u>, and <u>dispersion forces increase in strength with the number of electrons</u>. Furthermore, larger molar mass often means a bigger atom whose electron distribution is more easily disturbed because the outer electrons are less tightly held by the nuclei.

Because the noble gases are all nonpolar molecules, <u>the only attractive intermolecular  forces present are the dispersion forces</u>.

If the reactants contain one chlorine molecule, do you know how many chlorine atoms will be in the product? Include conversion o
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The number of Chlorine atoms in the product is 2.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The reactants contain one chlorine molecule(Cl_{2}) which has two chlorine atoms.

Then, according to law of conservation of matter, the product must contain two chlorine atoms.

The mean radius of the Earth is 6,371 km, and 70.8% of its surface is covered by water. What is the surface area of the Earth co
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

147,558,601 sqkm

Explanation:

The earth is spherical in shape;

area of sphere = 4πr²

if 70.8% is covered by water then 100-70.8 will be land,

= 29.2%

area occupied by land = (29.2/100) * 4πr²

                                = 0.292*4*3.142*(6371)²

                        =147,558,601 sqkm

Joan needs a 0.053-M solution of HCl, but only has access to 2.12-M HCl, a 10-mL graduated pipet, and a 25-mL volumetric flask.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Joan should measure 0.625 mL of 2,12 M HCl solution to create her desired solution.

Explanation:

Molarity of HCl Joan has access to = M_1=2.12 M

Volume of 2.12 M of HCl Joan use = V_1=?

Molarity of HCl Joan desired = M_2=0.053 M

Volume of 0.053 M of HCl Joan can prepare = V_2=25 mL

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

V_1=\frac{M_2V_2}{M_1}

=\frac{0.053 M\times 25 mL}{2.12 M}=0.625 mL

Joan should measure 0.625 mL of 2,12 M HCl solution to create her desired solution.
