Answer:

74.3kJ are transeferred

Explanation:

In the bomb calorimeter, the burning of C₈H₁₈ is producing heat that is been absorbed for the calorimeter and the water.

<em>Heat absorbed calorimeter:</em>

837J/°C * (33.8°C-15.0°C) = 15735.6J

<em>Heat absorbed water:</em>

C*m*ΔT

<em>C specific heat of water (4.184J/g°C), m is mass of water (745g), and ΔT change in temperature (33.8°C - 15°C = 18.8°C)</em>

4.184J/g°C*745g*18.8°C = 58601.1J

Heat released by the reaction:

15735.6J + 58601.1J = 74336.7J

<h3>74.3kJ are transeferred</h3>

If an acid/base dissociates completely in water what type of substance is it? Does this mean the acid/base is dangerous?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

1 strong acid

2 yes they are dangerous

Explanation:

Since nearly all of it is dissociated in water, it is called a strong acid.

2 yes Concentrated strong acids can cause severe and painful burns. The pain is due in part to the formation of a protein layer, which resists further penetration of the acid

When a solution forms, what interactions between particles are involved? Which are exothermic? Which are endothermic?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are three types of interactions involved between the particles when solution are formed.

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

It is the inter-molecular attraction between the solute particles.

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

It involve the inter-molecular attraction between solvent and solute particles.

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

It involve the intermolecular attraction between solvent particles.

Solutions are formed if the intermolecular attraction between solute particles are similar to the attraction between solvent particles.

Exothermic process:

The process will exothermic when solute solvent bonds are formed with the release of energy and energy required to brake the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are less.

Endothermic process:

The process will be endothermic when energy required to break the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are higher than energy released when solute solvent bonds are formed .

How to find electronegativity differences
lidiya [134]
To calculate electronegativity, start by going online to find an electronegativity table. You can then assess the quality of a bond between 2 atoms by looking up their electronegativities on the table and subtracting the smaller one from the larger one. If the difference is less than 0.5, the bond is nonpolar covalent.

Morgarella [4.7K]
Particles that orbit the nucleus are called electrons.

Explanation: Electrons are negatively charged particles arranged in orbits  around the nucleus of an atom and determining all of the atom's physical and chemical properties  except mass and radioactivity.
