<h3>Question 1</h3>

An example of an exothermic process is, A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine.

<h2>Further Explanation;</h2><h3>Energy changes in chemical reactions</h3>

Chemical reactions are accompanied by energy changes, as energy is either absorbed to break chemical bonds or released when bonds are formed.
Chemical reactions are therefore classified as endothermic reactions or exothermic reactions.

<h3>Exothermic reactions </h3>

Exothermic reactions are types of reaction that release energy to the surrounding.
In these reactions energy is released when new bonds are formed during the reactions. More energy is released when bonds are formed in the products than is used to break bonds in the reactants.
Therefore exothermic reactions have a negative (-) enthalpy change (ΔH).

<h3>Endothermic reactions </h3>

Endothermic reactions are type of reactions that absorb energy from the surroundings.
In these type of reactions more energy is absorbed when bonds of the reactants are broken than the energy released when bonds of the products are formed.
Endothermic reactions have a positive (+) enthalpy change (ΔH).

Keywords: Chemical reactions, energy changes in chemical reactions, exothermic reactions, endothermic reactions.

<h2>Question 2</h2>

The statement that describes the reaction;

N2(g) + 3H2(g)---> 2NH3(g) + 93 kJ is

The reaction is an endothermic reaction because energy is absorbed

<h2>Further Explanation;</h2><h3>Enthalpy of a reaction (ΔH)</h3>

Enthalpy chnage of a reaction or heat change is the difference between the enthalpy of products and the enthalpy of reactants.
Enthalpy change can be used to determine whether a reaction is exothermic or endothermic.
ΔH = energy used in bond breaking of reactant + energy released in bond formation of product.

<h3>Endothermic reactions</h3>

Endothermic reactions have a positive (+) enthalpy change (ΔH) because less energy is released when the products are formed compared to the energy used to break up the bonds in reactants.

<h3>Exothermic reactions </h3>

Exothermic reactions have a negative(-) enthalpy change (ΔH) since more energy released when the products are formed compared to energy used to break bonds in reactants.

Keywords: Enthalpy change, heat change, exothermic reactions, endothermic reactions.

1) Answer: A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine.

Explanation: Reactions or process in which heat is released(produced) are known as exothermic reactions or process and those in which the heat is absorbed are known as endothermic reactions or process.

If a beaker feels cools when chemical in it react then it means the chemicals have absorbed the heat energy from its surroundings and so it is an example of an endothermic process.

A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine means the energy is released in the chemical reaction and so it is an example of an exothermic process.

Plants use the sun's energy for photosynthesis which is a process of forming food for the plants. Energy acts as a reactant in this process and so it is an example of endothermic process.

Frying an egg by heating it on a stove is an example of an endothermic process as the heat is required to fry the egg.

So, the only exothermic process is the second one, "A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine."

2) In the given equation, heat is written as a product means the heat is released in the equation and so it is an example of an exothermic reaction.

So, the correct choice is the last one " It is exothermic because energy is released."

1. Ibuprofen (C13H18O2) is the active ingredient in many nonprescription pain relievers. Each tablet contains 200 mg of ibuprofe

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer :

The molar mass of ibuprofen is, 206.29 g/mole.

The number of moles of ibuprofen in a single tablet is, 0.000969 moles

The number of moles of ibuprofen in four doses is, 0.007752 moles

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mole

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.01 g/mole

Molar mass of oxygen = 15.99 g/mole

1) Now we have to calculate the molar mass of ibuprofen.

Molar mass of ibuprofen, $C_{13}H_{18}O_2$ = $(13\times 12.01)+(18\times 1.01)+(2\times 15.99)=206.29g/mole$

The molar mass of ibuprofen = 206.29 g/mole

2) Now we have to calculate the moles of ibuprofen.

Formula used : $Moles=\frac{Mass}{\text{ Molar mass}}$

Given : Mass of ibuprofen = 200 mg = 0.2 g (1 mg = 1000 g)

$\text{ Moles of ibuprofen}=\frac{\text{ Mass of ibuprofen}}{\text{ Molar mass of ibuprofen}}=\frac{0.2g}{206.29g/mole}=0.000969moles$

The moles of ibuprofen = 0.000969 moles

3) Now we have to calculate the number of moles of ibuprofen for four doses.

Number of tablets in one dose = 2

Total number of tablets in 4 doses = 4 × 2 = 8

Number of moles of ibuprofen in 8 tablets =

$\text{ Number of moles of ibuprofen in 1 tablet}\times \text{ Total number of tablets}=0.000969\times 8=0.007752moles$

When a cell is in a solution where the concentration of solute is the same in the cell as in the solution, the solution is calle

Elodia [21]

The answer to this question would be: isotonic

An isotonic solution has a same tonicity/concentration to the cell. This kind of solution will not cause osmosis to occur so it wouldn't shrink or swell the cells. This is why an isotonic solution is safer for the cells. The normal saline solution is isotonic to human cells and used frequently in medicine to replace body fluid.
