Define the following terms:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]3 years ago

Answer:

a)An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. The absorbed energy provides the activation energy for the reaction to occur eg Melting of ice, Evaporating liquid water

   b)An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the release of energy in the form of heat or light.eg a spark, flame, or flash), electricity , a battery), or sound , explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

c)By definition an exothermic reaction produces heat as part of it’s process. The heat generated just by being alive is an exothermic process as well. And as such we become aware of when we feel “too cold” or “too hot” and try to either adjust to the conditions we are in, or minimize them, if possible. It is not merely odd, but contrary to intelligent living, that we choose to increase our discomfort and also risk our health by intentionally increasing not only the exothermic reactions we use but also maximize them to our own detriment. In short, the increased use of inefficient exothermic reactions while inexpensive in current evaluations of financial cost are extremely expensive in terms of it’s effect upon living things, including ourselves. It is as though we are choosing our homes to not only be next to a furnace, but as close as possible to the process.

Hydrocarbons, compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen, are important in fuels. The heat of combustion of cyclobutane, C4H8
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

1. C4H8 + 6O2  -----> 4CO2 + 4H20

2. 3836.77 kcal

Explanation:

1. Balanced equation for the complete combustion of cyclobutane:

C4H8 + 6O2  -----> 4CO2 + 4H20

2. Heat of combustion of cyclobutane = 650.3 kcal/mol

    Molecular weight of cyclobutane, C4H8 = 56.1 g/mol

   Mole of C4H8 : mass of cyclobutane/Molecular weight of cyclobutane

  Mole of C4H8 = 331/56.1 = 5.9 mol

Energy released during combustion =  5.9 mol × 650.3 kcal/mol = 3836.77kcal

Therefore the energythat  is released during the complete combustion of 331 grams of cyclobutane is 3836.77kcal

From the calculations, the heat that is required is 2.1 kJ.

<h3>What is the specific heat capacity?</h3>

The term specific heat capacity has to do with the amount of heat that must be supplied to 1Kg of a substance in order to raise its temperature by 1K.

In this case;

H = mcdT

H = 100 grams  * 4.18 J/gC * (25 - 20)

H = 2.1 kJ

3.Write the symbol of the element that has a charge of +1 when it has 71 electrons.​
tigry1 [53]

The symbol : \tt _{72}^{178}Hf^{+1}

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

There are two components that accompany an element, the mass number and atomic number

Atoms are composed of 3 types of basic particles (subatomic particles): <em>protons, electrons, and neutrons </em>

The Atomic Number (Z) indicates the number of protons and electrons in an atom of an element.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons ⇒ neutral number

Atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons

Atomic Number (Z) = Atomic mass (A) - Number of Neutrons

The element has 71 electrons and a charge of +1 , so

Number of protons = 71 + 1 = 72

Number of protons = the atomic number = 72

The element with atomic number 72 is Hafnium(Hf)

The atomic mass of Hf = 178 g/mol
