Classify the four reactions that your group analyzed today as being either endothermic or exothermic

1 answer:

4 0

Chemical reactions are basically divided into two major classes depending on whether the reaction lose energy or gain energy from the environment during the course of the reaction. The two classes of reaction are exothermic and endothermic reaction.
An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system lose energy to the environment and thus, the energy content of the reactants is more than that of the product formed. Because of this, the enthapyl change of an exothermic reaction is always negative.
An endothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system absorb energy from the environment. Thus, the energy contents of the products is always higher than that of the reactants and the enthapyl change of the reaction is always positive. During the course of the reaction, the reaction container is usually cold to the touch because energy is been absorbed from the environment.

how much hydrogen will be released during the interaction of potassium weighing 8 grams with hydrochloric acid

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

With an understanding of the ideal gas laws, it is now possible to apply these principles to chemical stoichiometry problems. For example, zinc metal and hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride dissolved in water) react to form zinc (II) chloride and hydrogen gas according to the equation shown below:

2 HCl (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)

As part of your job you are asked to make 1 liter of a 0.5 molar sucrose solution. how much sucrose (c12h22o11) do you need? use

kakasveta [241]

Answer:- 171 g

Solution:- It asks to calculate the grams of sucrose required to make 1 L of 0.5 Molar solution of it.

We know that molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution.

If molarity and volume is given then, moles of solute is molarity times volume in liters.

moles of solute = molarity* liters of solution

moles of solute = 0.5*1 = 0.5 moles

To convert the moles to grams we multiply the moles by molar mass.

Molar mass of sucrose = 12(12) + 22(1) + 11(16)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 grams per mol

grams of sucrose required = moles * molar mass

grams of sucrose required = 0.5*342 = 171 g

So, 171 g of sucrose are required to make 1 L of 0.5 molar solution.

The daily production of carbon dioxide from an 780.0 mw coal-fired power plant is estimated to be 3.3480 x 104 tons (not metric)

valkas [14]

The production of $CO_{2}$ is $3.3480\times 10^{4} tons/day$ . Converting mass into kg,

1 ton=907.185 kg, thus,

$3.3480\times 10^{4} tons=3.037\times 10^{7} kg$

Thus, production of $CO_{2}$ will be $3.037\times 10^{7} kg/ day$ .

The specific volume of $CO_{2}$ is $0.0120 m^{3}/kg$ .

Volume of $CO_{2}$ produced per day can be calculated as:

$V=Specific volume\times mass$

Putting the values,

$V=0.0120 m^{3}/kg\times 3.037\times 10^{7} kg=364440 m^{3}/day$

Thus, volume of $CO_{2}$ produced per year will be:

$V=\frac{365 days}{1 year}(364440 m^{3}/day)=1.33\times 10^{8}m^{3}/year$

Thus, in 4 year volume of $CO_{2}$ produced will be:

$V=1.33\times 10^{8}m^{3}/year\times 4 years=5.32\times 10^{8}m^{3}$
