stich3 [128]

Explanation:

Contributing structures are the resonating structures which are formed due to the delocalization of electrons in a molecule.

The azide ion that is $N^{-}_3$ , is a symmetrical ion, all of whose contributing structures have formal charges.

Lone pair of central nitrogen atom in azide ion is in conjugation with the neighboring nitrogen atoms.

Contributing structures of azide ion are drawn in the image attached.

A cat travels 240 meters in 30 seconds, and a sprinter travels 100 meters in 9.5 seconds. Which is traveling faster, the cat or

joja [24]

Answer:

The cat

Explanation:

1) You need to find how many meters per second each thing is sprinting, so you can divide the meters by seconds for each.

$\frac{240}{30} = 8 m/s\\\frac{100}{9.5} = around 10.5 m/s$

2) Per second, the sprinter is able to achieve 8 meters, while the cat can do around 10.5 meters. 10.5 is greater than 8, making the cat faster than the sprinter.

Propane gas, C3H8, is sometimes used as a fuel. In order to measure its energy output as a fuel a 1.860 g sample was combined wi

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The heat of the reaction is 105.308 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Let the heat released during reaction be q.

Heat gained by water: Q

Mass of water ,m= 1kg = 1000 g

Heat capacity of water ,c= 4.184 J/g°C

Change in temperature = ΔT = 26.061°C - 25.000°C=1.061 °C

Q=mcΔT

Heat gained by bomb calorimeter =Q'

Heat capacity of bomb calorimeter ,C= 4.643 J/g°C

Change in temperature = ΔT'= ΔT= 26.061°C - 25.000°C=1.061 °C

Q'=CΔT'=CΔT

Total heat released during reaction is equal to total heat gained by water and bomb calorimeter.

q= -(Q+Q')

q = -mcΔT - CΔT=-ΔT(mc+C)

$q=-1.061^oC(1000 g\times 4.184J/g^oC+4.643 J/^oC )=-4,444.15J=-4.444 kJ$

Moles of propane = $\frac{1.860 g}{44 g/mol}=0.0422 mol$

0.0422 moles of propane on reaction with oxygen releases 4.444 kJ of heat.

The heat of the reaction will be:

$\frac{4.444 kJ}{0.0422 mol}=105.308 kJ/mol$

Can a chemical reaction happen with only one substance? For example, if you select water as the first substance but you don't ad

KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

Yes, a chemical reaction can happen with only one substance.

A typical example of such reaction is the radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is the loss of elementary particles from an unstable nucleus, ultimately changing the unstable element into another more stable element. .

When radioactive elements are let alone, they decompose to form stable harmless elements.

An example of radioactive decay is attached in the image below;
