Answer:

-54 J

Explanation:

Here we have to use the specific heat equation,

Q = mc∆T

where Q is the heat, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity and ∆T is the change of temperature.  

Given,  

m = 12 g

c = 2.5 J/g⋅°C

∆T  = Tfinal - Tinitial = 36.7 °C - 38.5 °C  = -1.8 °C

Plugging the numbers in the specific heat equation,

Q =  12 g  x 2.5 J/g⋅°C x - 1.8 °C = -54 J

As heat is released Q has a negative sign. When heat is absorbed Q has a positive sign.

N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3

in this question, we are dealing with only NH3 and H2 so we only focus on that

since the ratio of H2 to 2NH3 is 3:2, we say that

3 liters of H2 = 2 liters of 2NH3

3.6 litres of H2 = x liters of 2NH3

We cross multiple to give:

3 × x = 3.6 × 2

3x = 7.2

Divide both sides by 3

x = 7.2 ÷ 3

x = 2.4liters

Which factors determine the length of a bond between two elements?
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The length of the bond is determined by the number of bonded electrons (the bond order). The higher the bond order, the stronger the pull between the two atoms and the shorter the bond length. Generally, the length of the bond between two atoms is approximately the sum of the covalent radii of the two atoms.
