Answer:
The change in enthalpy is +210 kJ, so it is an endothermic reaction.
Explanation:
- The change in enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.
The change in enthalpy = The energy of products - the energy of reactants.
- If ΔH is positive value, the reaction is endothermic, the energy of the products is higher than that of the reactants.
- If ΔH is negative value, the reaction is exothermic, the energy of the products is lower than that of the reactants.
<em>For this reaction: </em>The change in enthalpy = The energy of products - the energy of reactants = 370 kJ - 160 kJ = + 210 kJ.
<em>So, the right choice is: The change in enthalpy is +210 kJ, so it is an endothermic reaction.</em>

Titration is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution by reacting with another solution which is known to be concentrated (usually a standard solution).
Titrations can be distinguished including acid-base titration, depositional titration, and redox titration. An acid-base titration is the principle of neutralization of acids and bases is used.
Acid-base titration formula
Ma. Va. na = Mb. Vb. nb
Ma, Mb = acid base concentration
Va, Vb = acid base volume
na, nb = acid base valence
1 ⇒HCl (valence=1, HCl ⇒H⁺+Cl⁻, one H⁺)
2⇒Ca(OH)₂(valence=2, Ca(OH)₂⇒Ca²⁺+2OH⁻, two OH⁻)
M₂=0.1 M
V₂=48 ml=0.048 L
V₁=30 ml=0.03 L
Answer: A plot of the natural log of the concentration of the reactant as a function of time is linear.
Explanation:
Since it was explicitly stated in the question that the half life is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant then the third option must necessarily be false. Also, the plot of the natural logarithm of the concentration of reactant against time for a first order reaction is linear. In a first order reaction, the half life is independent of the initial concentration of the reactant. Hence the answer.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
Calcium Carbide (CaC₂) is an unusual substance that contains a carbon anion (C₂²⁻). The reaction with water involves several steps that occur in rapid succession. CaC2 is a salt (notice that its name is similar to sodium chloride). When a salt dissolves in water, ions leave the crystal lattice and enter the aqueous (aq) solution. Write the relevant balanced chemical equation for the dissolution of CaC₂, in water.
Answer:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
Explanation:
When a salt dissolves in water, it dissociates in its ions. In the Calcium Carbide, the cation is Ca⁺² and the anion is C₂²⁻, so the reaction is:
CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)
The base Ca(OH)₂ is soluble, so it will dissociate at Ca⁺ and OH⁻, but the C₂H₂ is stable and doesn't dissociate in the solution.
