Answer is: -601,2 kJ/mol
Chemical reaction: Mg(OH)₂ → MgO + H₂O.
ΔHrxn = 37,5 kJ/mol.
ΔHf(Mg(OH)₂) = <span>−924,5 kJ/mol.
</span>ΔHf(H₂O) = <span>−285,8 kJ/mol.
</span>ΔHrxn -enthalpy of reaction.
ΔHf - enthalpy of formation.
<span>ΔHrxn=∑productsΔHf−∑reactantsΔHf.
</span>ΔHf(MgO) = -924,5 kJ/mol - (-285,8 kJ/mol) + 37,5 kj/mol.
ΔHf(MgO) = -601,2 kJ/mol.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When a system is open then there will be exchange of energy between the system and surrounding.
Whereas when a system is closed then there will be no exchange of energy, that is, thermal energy will not flow into the atmosphere.
Thus, we can conclude that a sealed calorimeter is a closed system because thermal energy is not transferred to the environment.
For average speed, we divide the total distance covered by the total time taken.
After doing that, you will see that Jane has the lowest average speed.
C. atoms of reactants rearrange to form new substances
