Option B: Strength of chemical bonds

Hardness defines the strength, it can not be compared with surface roughness as a smooth surface can be harder or difficult to break than a rough surface. The mass and weight of a substance matters while comparing density of substance or how heavy it is but it is not directly proportional to the hardness of the substance. Thus, equal masses of two substance can not be considered equally hard. Hardness depends on the inter-molecular interaction or forces within a substance, if the inter-molecular interactions are strong or the strength of chemical bonds is strong then the substance is more hard.

Therefore, hardness is directly proportional to strength of the chemical bonds.

Why do you think the atomic number is basically represented by the number of protons and not the number of electrons?

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The atomic number equals the charge on the nucleus. It therefore also equals the number of protons in the nucleus and also equals numerically the number of electrons in the neutral atom. i think so, hope this helps you

The enthalpy of combustion for octane (C8H18(l)), a key component of gasoline, is -5,074 kJ/mol. This value is the Delta. Hrxn f

Inessa [10]

Combustion can be defined as the reaction of a compound with oxygen. The enthalpy of combustion of octane is $\Delta H_{\rm rxn}$ for $\rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O$ .

<h3>What is the enthalpy of reaction?</h3>

The enthalpy of reaction is the amount of heat energy absorbed or lost by the molecules in the chemical reaction.

The enthalpy of combustion is the amount of heat energy released by the compound in the reaction with oxygen.

The reaction in which heat is liberated with the reaction of a compound with oxygen has an enthalpy of combustion, equivalent to the enthalpy of reaction.

The combustion of octane can be given as:

$\rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O$

Thus, the reaction has combustion energy equivalent to the enthalpy of the reaction is $\rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O$ . Thus, option B is correct.
