<span>Cost and availability of fuel is a considerable factor when dealing with nuclear power. Fission requires an element that can be easily split in a particle accelerator, such as uranium or plutonium. Fusion, on the other hand, uses isotopes of hydrogen atoms, specifically deuterium and tritium, that can be obtained from ordinary water</span>
The reaction formula CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O shows the oxidation of 1 mole of CH4 (Methane) will yield 1 mole of CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). Since 1 mole of CH4 will weigh 12g (for the Carbon) + 4g (1g for each Hydrogen) = 16g, then 32g of CH4 will correspond to 32g / 16g/mole = 2 moles. Therefore the oxidation of 2 moles of CH4 will yield 2 moles of CO2.
Answer is: 39,083kJ.
m(coal) = 2,00g.
m(water) = 500g.
ΔT = 43,7°C - 25°C = 18,7°C, <span>difference at temperatures.</span>
c(water) = 4,18 J/g·°C, <span>specific heat of water
</span>Q = m(water)·ΔT·c(water), heat of reaction.
Q = 500g·18,7°C·4,18J/g·°C.
Q = 39083J = 39,083kJ.
Answer: 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.
Explanation: There are two types of reaction on the basis of amount of heat absorbed or released.
1. Endothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which reactants absorb heat to form the products. The energy of the reactants is less than the energy of the products.
2. Exothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which heat is released from the chemical reactions. The energy of the products is less than the reactants.
Sign convention for
: This value is negative for exothermic reactions and positive for endothermic reactions.
For the given chemical reaction,
Energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants, Hence, this reaction will be a type of exothermic reaction and energy will be released during this chemical change.
Amount of energy released = (350 - 372) kJ = -22kJ
Negative sign symbolizes the energy is being released. So, 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.
Answer:
Linus Pauling became known as the founder of molecular biology due to his discovery of the spiral structure of proteins (Taton, 1964)
