Answer:

It is very important to known about the chemical reactions that takes place around us.

There are various types of chemical reactions taking place in our every day life. The burning of match stick, rusting of iron are chemical reactions that takes place in the body of organisms.

The compounds react together to form essential products which is formed. The matter that is formed in nature is combination if elements. Water and carbon dioxide form carbohydrates.

This is an example of combination of elements. There are many more examples which are seen in day to day life.

Scientist believe that about 25 of the known elements are essential to life. Just four of these - Carbon (C), Oxygen (O), Hydrogen (H), and Nitrogen (N), - make up about 96% of the human body.


These four elements are found in the basic structure of all biochemical molecules. For example, Glucose is a carbohydrate and it's molecular formula is C6H12O6 - each molecule of glucose is made up of 6 Carbon atoms, 12 Hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.


The other elements found can be divided into two main groups - major elements and trace elements.


The human body functions as a result of a large number of the chemical reactions involving compounds of a of these elements.

Consider the following reactions. (Note: (s) = solid, () = liquid, and (g) = gas.)
White raven [17]

Answer:

Both are endothermic reactions.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

1/2H₂(g) + 1/2I₂(g)  →  HI(g)  + 6.2 kcal/mol

Chemical equation:

21.0 kcal/mol + C(s) + 2S(s)  → CS₂

Both reaction are endothermic because heat is added in both of reactions.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. Hydrogen bonding.

Explanation:

The property by which water molecules attract each other is cohesion. groups of water molecules are formed by this interaction by adhesion with other water molecules.

Hydrogen bridges are great forces that hold water molecules together. They form a compact structure that gives it the property of being an almost incompressible liquid. These weak interactions are formed between a hydrogen with a positive partial charge and a more electronegative atom, such as oxygen.

Have a nice day!
