Answer: Most of the stars in the universe are main sequence stars — those converting hydrogen into helium via nuclear fusion. A main sequence star may have a mass between a third to eight times that of the sun and eventually burn through the hydrogen in its core. Over its life, the outward pressure of fusion has balanced against the inward pressure of gravity. Once the fusion stops, gravity takes the lead and compresses the star smaller and tighter.
Temperatures increase with the contraction, eventually reaching levels where helium is able to fuse into carbon. Depending on the mass of the star, the helium burning might be gradual or might begin with an explosive flash.
Answer:
(a) ΔU = 7.2x10²
(b) W = -5.1x10²
(c) q = 5.2x10²
Explanation:
From the definition of power (p), we have:
(1)
<em>where, p: is power (J/s = W (watt)) W: is work = ΔU (J) and t: is time (s) </em>
(a) We can calculate the energy (ΔU) using equation (1):
(b) The work is related to pressure and volume by:

<em>where p: pressure and ΔV: change in volume = V final - V initial </em>
(c) By the definition of Energy, we can calculate q:
<em>where Δq: is the heat transfer </em>

Answer:
- 10.555 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.
Where, ∆G°rxn is the standard free energy change of the reaction (J/mol).
∆H°rxn is the standard enthalpy change of the reaction (J/mol).
T is the temperature of the reaction (K).
∆S°rxn is the standard entorpy change of the reaction (J/mol.K).
∵ ∆H°rxn = ∑∆H°products - ∑∆H°reactants
<em>∴ ∆H°rxn = (2 x ∆H°f NOCl) - (1 x ∆H°f Cl₂) - (2 x ∆H°f NO) </em>= (2 x 51.71 kJ/mol) - (1 x 0) - (2 x 90.29 kJ/mol) = - 77.16 kJ/mol.
∵ ∆S°rxn = ∑∆S°products - ∑∆S°reactants
<em>∴ ∆S°rxn = (2 x ∆S° NOCl) - (1 x ∆S° Cl₂) - (2 x ∆S° NO) </em>= (2 x 261.6 J/mol.K) - (1 x 223.0 J/mol.K) - (2 x 210.65 J/mol.K) =<em> - 121.1 J/mol.K. = - 0.1211 kJ/mol.K.</em>
<em></em>
∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.
<em>∴ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn </em>= (- 77.16 kJ/mol) - (550 K)(- 0.1211 kJ/mol.K) = <em>- 10.555 kJ/mol.</em>
Ionic bonds are forces that hold together electrostatic forces of attractions between oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds have an electronegativity difference greater than or equal to 2. Covalent bonds have an electronegativity difference that is less than 2.
