a) The reaction is exothermic since the overall enthalpy change is negative. this means that the system has lost energy to the environment, namely, the apparatus and due to drought.
b) We first calculate the number of moles in 3.55 grams of magnesium.
number of moles= mass/ atomic mass
=3.55/24
=0.1479 moles(to 4sf)
now, if 2 moles of magnesium give -1204kJ
How much energy is given by 0.1479 moles
= (0.1479×-1204kJ)
=-89.0358kJ (don't forget the negative sign)
c) two molesof MgO produces -1204kJ of energy
then -234kJ will be produced by
=(-234kJ×2moles)/1204kJ
=0.3887moles
one mole of MgO weighs 24+16=40
therefore the mass produced is 0.3887moles×40=15.548grams
(d) we first find the number of moles of MgO in 40.3 grams
number of moles=mass/RFM
=40.3g/40= 1.0075moles
if 2 moles of MgO give 1204 kJ then decomposing 1.0075 moles requires
(1.0075 moles×1204kJ)/2=606.515kJ
Answer:
NH₄⁺
H₂PO₄⁻
H₃O⁺
Explanation:
- An ion is an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
- Ion may be positively charged "cation" or negatively charged "anion".
- Neutral molecule has a net charge of zero.
<em>So, the species that are ions are: </em>
NH₄⁺
H₂PO₄⁻
H₃O⁺
The compound sodium carbonate is a strong electrolyte because it completely dissociates when placed in water into its component ions. The equation of the reaction can be expressed as:
The dissociation leads to the formation of sodium and carbonate ions with the latter held together by its internal covalent bond.
This is unlike weak electrolytes that do not dissociate completely in water or aqueous solutions. Only a small fraction of the solute exists as ions in the solution.

Answer:
ΔG < 0
Explanation:
The condition for spontaneity of a chemical reaction is that ∆G<0. Hence for any biochemical reaction to proceed as written, ∆G must have a negative value.
If ∆G >0, the reaction is not spontaneous and will not proceed as written. ∆G=0 means that the reaction has attained equilibrium.
