How does the heat content of the reaction change in the process of photosynthesis when a glucose molecule is formed?

1 answer:

4 0

In the process of photosynthesis, when a glucose molecule is formed, THE HEAT CONTENT OF THE REACTION INCREASES, THUS, THE VALUE OF Q IS POSITIVE.

There are two types of chemical reaction, these are exothermic and endothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are those reactions that gives off heat when they are occurring while endothermic reactions are those reactions that absorb heat from their environment during the course of reaction. Photosynthesis is an endothermic reactions; it absorbs energy from the environment when it is occurring, thus, the heat content of the product is always more than that of the reactants. The heat content of compounds are represented by letter q. For photosynthesis, q is positive, because there is an increase in the heat content of the product [glucose] formed.

If 200. mL of 0.60 M MgCl2(aq) is added to 400 mL of distilled water, what is the concentration of Mg and Cl in the resulting so

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

C. 0.20 M Mg ion & 0.40 M Cl ion

Explanation:

MgCl₂ is a ionic salt which is dissociated as this

MgCl₂ → Mg²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

First of all, we have a solution of 200 mL, with [MgCl₂] = 0.6M

Molarity . volume = moles.

0.6 mol/l . 0.2l = 0.12 mol

MgCl₂ → Mg²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

0.12mol 0.12 0.24

This moles are also in 400mL of water, so the new concentration is

[Mg²⁺] = 0.12 m/0.6L = 0.2M

[Cl⁻] = 0.24 m/0.6L = 0.4M

Remember we initially have 200mL and then, we add 400 mL, so we supose aditive volume. (600mL)
