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.

Assuming acid strength relates directly to number of O atoms bonded to the central atom, rank H₂N₂O₂ [or (HON)₂]; HNO₃ (or HONO₂
Elenna [48]

For Less number of oxygen atoms will be less acidic. Therefore, the rank will be.... So there is 1 oxygen atom bonded to each of the 2 nitrogen atoms.

For HNO3 or {HONO}2. So there are 3 oxygen atoms bonded to the nitrogen.

For HNO2 or HONO. So there are 2 oxygen atoms bonded to the nitrogen.

Less number of oxygen atoms will be less acidic. Therefore, the rank will be...

HNO3>HNO2>H2N2O2

Acid strength is the tendency of an acid, symbolized by the chemical formula, to dissociate into a proton, and an anion, The dissociation of a strong acid in solution is effectively complete, except in its most concentrated solutions.

The strength of a weak organic acid may depend on substituent effects. The strength of an inorganic acid depends on the atom’s oxidation state to which the proton may be attached. Acid strength is solvent-dependent. For example, hydrogen chloride is a strong acid in an aqueous solution but is a weak acid when dissolved in glacial acetic acid.

Write the net ionic equation for the reaction of sodium phosphate with iron (III) chloride. Include the complete ionic equation
Xelga [282]

Hi There!

Question - Write the net ionic equation for the reaction of sodium phosphate with iron (III) chloride. Include the complete ionic equation and label the spectator ions. Also be sure to label the reactants as products as solid, liquid, gas, or aqueous solutions

Answer: Fe3(+) + PO43(-) = FePO4

P.S. The + and - are in parentheses because they are below the number.

Hope This Helps :)

What happens to the average kinetic energy of a gas when the particles of the gas collide against each other at a constant tempe
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The average kinetic energy drastically increases.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy drastically increases when the gas particles collide against each other at a constant temperature and volume because the collision will increase the heat content of gas at a particular temperature and gas particles begin to move faster as gain more kinetic energy.

Hence, the correct answer is "B".
