A positive cahnge of enthalpy, ΔH rxn = + 55 kJ/mol, for the forward reaction means that the reaction is endothermic, i.e. the reactants absorb energy and the products are higher in energy.

Activation energy is the difference in the energy level of the reactants and the peak in the potential energy diagram (the energy of the transition state).

For an endothermic reaction, the products will be closer in energy to the transition state than what the reactans will be; so, the activation energy of the reversed reaction is lower than the activation energy of the forward reaction.

Activation energy of reverse and forward reactions is related by:

Activation energy of reverse rxn = Activation energy of forward rxn - ΔH rxn

=> Activiation energy of reverse rxn = 102 kJ/mol - 55 kJ/mol = 47 kJ/mol

Answer: 47 kJ/mol

How do we use properties of matter in our every day lives
bearhunter [10]
For example, water. In its liquid state we drink it , in its solid state (ice ) we use it to make our drinks colder or t numbs pain when wrapped in cloth and it’s gas state ( water vapour) we steam vegetables. In conclusion many different properties of matter are used for various purposes

Why does burned toast taste so bad? Is it a chemical or physical change?
german

Because things that are burnt have been changed into something else like moldy bread thats cooked.

It is chemical change because you cannot unburn something.

A 155.0 g piece of copper at 128 oC is dropped into 250.0 g of water at 17.9 oC. (The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/goC.) C
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

T_{eq}=23.85^oC

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, as the copper's heat loss is gained by the water, the following energetic relationship is:

\Delta H_{Cu}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}

Therefore the equilibrium temperature shows up as:

m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}(T_{Cu}-T{eq}) = m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})\\\\T_{eq}=\frac{m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}T_{Cu}-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}T_{H_2O}}{m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}} \\

Thus, by knowing that water's heat capacity is 4.18J/g°C, one obtains:

T_{eq}=\frac{155.0g*0.385\frac{J}{g^oC}*128^oC+250.0g*4.18\frac{J}{g^oC}*17.9^oC}{155.0g*0.385\frac{J}{g^oC}+250.0g*4.18\frac{J}{g^oC}}=23.85^oC

Best regards.

WHAT ARE SOME POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES IF A HUMAN BODY DOES NOT MAINTAIN<br> HOMEOSTASIS
BARSIC [14]

Answer: If homeostasis is disrupted, it must be controlled or a disease/disorder may result.

Explanation: What happens if there's disruption? Your body systems work together to maintain balance. If that balance is shifted or disrupted and homeostasis is not maintained, the results may not allow normal functioning of the organism.
