Consider the exothermic reaction
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is -2855 J

Explanation:

Reaction

                     2C₂H₆  +  7O₂   ⇒   4CO₂  +  6H₂O

Formula

Heat of reaction = ΔHrxn = ΣΔHrxn products - ΣΔHrxn reactants

Substitution

ΔHrxn = { 4(-393.5) + 6(-241.8)} - {2(-84.7) + 7(0)}

ΔHrxn = {-1574 -1450.8} - {-169.4}

ΔHrxn = -3024.8 + 169.4

ΔHrxn = -2855.4 J

The word that best fits is frequency. The sentence is The frequency of a wave is a measure of the amount of energy it carries. There is a direct relationship between frequency and energy of a wave. The constant of proportionality is h, Planck's constant. So, Energy = h * frequency. So, the answer is frequency.<span> Although you should know that wavelength is related to frequency and so it is also a measure of the amount of energy and it should also be other valid answer.</span>
