Answer:

ΔH = -22 kcal

Step-by-step explanation:

N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇌ 2NH₃(g) + 22 000 cal

Energy is on the right-hand side of the equation, so it is being <em>released</em> by the system.

The thermodynamic convention is that <em>energy going out of a system is negative.</em> Thus,

ΔH = -22 000 cal Convert to kilocalories

ΔH = -22 kcal

A and B are both wrong, because you divide by 1000 to convert calories to kilocalories.

C is wrong, because the sign must be negative for an exothermic reaction.

Why should you be careful when you heat your NaCl solution to evaporate the water?

ivolga24 [154]

Answer & Explanation:

If we heat the NaCl solution strongly, it boils and moves vigorously causing some of the solution to get out of the container.

This will cause loss of NaCl in the amount that get out of the container.

So, this affect the yield of the obtained NaCl after water evaporation.

Consider the heating curve for water. A graph of the heating curve for water has time in minutes on the horizontal axis and Temp

Zolol [24]

Answer:

0°C.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the heating curve of water on the attached document, we can notice that at 0 °C the solid starts melting, which means that the melting point is reached. Melting point is known as a physical change whereby a solid changes to liquid by the addition of heat as it allows the molecules to separate to each other.

Best regards.
