Answer: (2) decreasing the concentration of HCl(aq) to 0.1 M
Explanation: Rate of a reaction depends on following factors:
1. Size of the solute particles: If the reactant molecules are present in smaller size, surface of particles and decreasing the size increases the surface area of the solute particles. Hence, increasing the rate of a reaction.
2. Reactant concentration: The rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of reactants.
3. Temperature: Increasing the temperature increases the energy of the molecules and thus more molecules can react to give products and rate increases.
(1) Increasing the initial temperature to 25°C will increase the reaction rate.
(2) Decreasing the concentration of HCl(aq) to 0.1 M will decrease the reaction rate due to lesser concentration.
(3) Using 1.2 g of powdered Mg will increase the reaction rate due to large surface area.
(4) Using 2.4 g of Mg ribbon will increase the reaction rate due to high concentration of reactants.

Answer:
As potassium is larger than sodium, potassium's valence electron is at a greater distance from the attractive nucleus and is so removed more easily than sodium's valence electron. As it is removed more easily, it requires less energy, and can be said to be more reactive.

Answer:
ΔH = 2.68kJ/mol
Explanation:
The ΔH of dissolution of a reaction is defined as the heat produced per mole of reaction. We have 3.15 moles of the solid, to find the heat produced we need to use the equation:
q = m*S*ΔT
<em>Where q is heat of reaction in J,</em>
<em>m is the mass of the solution in g,</em>
<em>S is specific heat of the solution = 4.184J/g°C</em>
<em>ΔT is change in temperature = 11.21°C</em>
The mass of the solution is obtained from the volume and the density as follows:
150.0mL * (1.20g/mL) = 180.0g
Replacing:
q = 180.0g*4.184J/g°C*11.21°C
q = 8442J
q = 8.44kJ when 3.15 moles of the solid react.
The ΔH of the reaction is:
8.44kJ/3.15 mol
= 2.68kJ/mol
