When pellets of NaOH(s) are added to a flask of water, it is observed that the temperature of the water increases as the pellets

dissolve. Which of the following claims about the observed dissolution of NaOH(s) in water is most accurate?
A. It is an endothermic process because heat energy is absorbed by the water as the NaOH(s) dissolves in it.

B. It is an endothermic process because heat energy is released by the water as the NaOH(s) dissolves in it.

C. It is an exothermic process because heat energy is absorbed by the water as the NaOH(s) dissolves in it.

D. It is an exothermic process because heat energy is released by the water as the NaOH(s)) dissolves in it.

Answer: It is an exothermic process because heat energy is absorbed by the water as the NaOH(s) dissolves in it.

Explanation:

Endothermic reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction where the energy is absorbed from the surrounding. In the endothermic reaction, the reactant are less than the energy of product. In endothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is, positive

Exothermic reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction where the energy is released into the surrounding. In the exothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are more than the energy of product. In exothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is, negative.

Thus as energy is absorbed by water, which has been released by NaOH, the process is exothermic.

Linolenic acid (C18H30O2 - M.W. = 278.42 g/mol) reacts with hydrogen gas according to the equation: C18H30O2 + 3H2 (g) → C18H36O
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed

Explanation:

The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂

By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.

By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3

Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:

10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g  = 0.0377 moles

We apply a rule of three:

1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react

Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P

V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L

A _____ exists in the same physical state as that of the reaction it catalyzes.
klio [65]
<span>A Homogeneous Catalyst exists in the same physical state as that of the reaction it catalyzes.

Explanation:
                     
Catalysts are classifies as follow,
                                                      1. Homogeneous Catalyst
                                                      2. Heterogeneous Catalyst

</span>Homogeneous Catalyst are those which are in same phase as that of reactants are.

Example:

         Acetic Acid + Ethanol + H₂SO₄  →  Ethyl Acetate + H₂O + H₂SO₄

In this reaction catalyst and reactants all are in same phase i.e. Liquids.

Heterogeneous Catalyst are those which are in different phase as that of reactants are.

Example:

                                 Ethene + H₂ + Ni  →  Ethane + Ni

In this reaction ethene and hydrogen are gases while Nickle catalyst is in solid state.

An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

NO2 is the molecular formula  of nitrogen Oxide​

Explanation:

Correct question

An oxide of nitrogen contain its own volume of nitrogen

its vapour dentity is 23. Find the molecular formula

Of nitrogen Oxide

Solution

As we know

Molecular Weight  is equal to two times the  vapour density

Hence, the molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen is 2 * 22 = 44

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen  is the sum of atomic weight of nitrogen and oxygen

Molecular weight of Oxide of nitrogen = 14 + 16 *Y

14 + 16 *Y  = 46

Y = 2

Hence, the formula is NO2
