Answer:

\large \boxed{ \text{B. 2 kJ}}

Explanation:

We have two equations:

1. C(s, graphite) + O₂(g) ⟶ CO₂(g);  ∆H = -394 kJ  

2. C(s, diamond) + O₂(g) ⟶CO₂(g); ∆H = -396 kJ  

From these, we must devise the target equation:

3. C(s, graphite) ⟶ C(s,diamond); ΔH = ?

The target equation has C(s, graphite) on the left, so you rewrite Equation 1.

4. C(s, graphite) + O₂(g) ⟶ CO₂(g);  ∆H = -394 kJ  

Equation 4 has CO₂ on the right, and that is not in the target equation.

You need an equation with CO₂ on the left, so you reverse Equation 2.  

When you reverse an equation, you reverse the sign of its ΔH.

5.  CO₂(g)⟶ C(s, diamond) + O₂(g); ∆H = +396 kJ  

Now, you add equations 4 and 5, cancelling species that appear on opposite sides of the reaction arrows.

When you add equations, you add their ΔH values.

You get the target equation 3:

4. C(s, graphite) +<u> O₂(g)</u> ⟶ <u>CO₂(g)</u>; ∆H =  -394 kJ  

5. <u>CO₂(g)</u><u> ⟶ C(s, diamond) + </u><u>O₂(g</u>); ∆H = <u>+396 kJ </u>

3. C(s, graphite) ⟶ C(s, diamond);   ΔH =        2 kJ

\Delta H \text{ for the reaction is $\large \boxed{\textbf{2 kJ/mol}}$}

How Do Glow Sticks Glow? Explain in 5-6 sentences. IF NOT, YOUR ANSWER WILL BE DELETED​
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

All liquid glow products depend on a chemical process known as CHEMILUMINESCENCE to produce their light. Chemiluminesence is a chemical reaction that causes a release of energy in the form of light. To produce this light the electrons in the chemicals become excited and rise to a higher energy level.To utilise this process glowsticks contain two liquids; hydrogen peroxide and tert-butyl alcohol. When mixed together it is these liquids that create the glow. Fluorescent dyes are also used in the alcohol to alter the colour of the light emitted. Chemiluminesence is a chemical reaction that causes a release of energy in the form of light.
