photoshop1234 [79]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A calorie is a unit of energy. In nutrition, calories refer to the energy people get from the food and drink they consume, and the energy they use in physical activity. Calories are listed in the nutritional information on all food packaging. Many weight loss programs center around reducing the intake of calories.

The heat exchange in chemical reactions is due to a change in:
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This would be due to enthalpy. This is because that this where heat exchange happens in chemical reactions.

So, a positive enthalpy means that the reaction is endothermic (heat entering) and if enthalpy is negative this will be a exothermic (heat released)

Another example would be the use of atoms. This example if temperature is the factor, this means that at low temp there is less kinetic energy so low temperature. However, an increase in energy means that there is more kinetic energy in the atoms which means that more collisions occurring.

Hope this helps !!!!

Have a nice day :)

Determine the equilibrium constant, Keq, at 25°C for the reaction
adelina 88 [10]

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction is:

2Br^- (aq) + I_2(s)  Br_2(l) + 2I^- (aq)

E^ocell=oxidation potential of anode + reduction potential of cathode\\

The relation between Eo cell and Keq is shown below:

deltaG=-RTlnK_e_q\\delta=-nFE^o cell\\=>nFE^o cell=RTlnK_e_q\\lnK_e_q=\frac{nF}{RT} E^o cell

The value of Eo cell is:

Br- undergoes oxidation and I2 undergoes reduction.

Reduction takes place at cathode.

Oxidation takes place at anode.

Hence,

E^ocell= (-1.07+0.53)V\\=-0.54V

F=96485 C/mol

n=2 mol

R=8.314 J.K-1.mol-1

T=298K

Substitute all these values in the above formula:

ln K_e_q=\frac{2mol* 96485 C/mol}{8.314 J.K^-^1.mol^-^1x298K} \\\\lnK_e_q=77.8\\K_e_q=e^7^7^.^8\\=>K_e_q=6.13x10^3^3

Answer:

Keq=6.13x10^33

Enter the ions formed when (NH4)2S dissolves in water.
lisabon 2012 [21]

The ions formed are NH4(+) and S(2-)

The dissolution reaction of (NH4) 2S in water is as follows:


(NH4) 2S ==> 2 NH4 (+) + S (2-).



Ammonium sulfide is the ammonium salt of hydrogen sulfide. It has the formula (NH4) 2S and belongs to the sulfide family.


It is a relatively unstable compound (crystals decomposing at -18 ° C, but exists and is more stable in aqueous solution.) With a pKa exceeding 15, the hydrosulfide ion cannot be significantly deprotonated by ammonia. Thus, such solutions consist mainly of a mixture of ammonia and hydrosulphide of ammonium, it has a smell, close to that of hydrogen sulfide, and its aqueous solutions can be precisely by emitting H2S.

If a test yields consistent results every time it is used, it has a high degree of...
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:Reliability

Explanation:

Reliability of a test refers to how consistently a test measures a characteristic under the same conditions.

Reliability can be defined as the degree of consistency of which a chemical test gives a similar result. measure. A test is said to be highly reliable when it gives the same repeated result under the same conditions of measure.

But when a test gives different results under the same condition of measure it has a low reliability.

Hence, If a test yields consistent results every time it is used, it has a high degree of reliability.
