An Exothermic reaction releases energy into the surroundings and so the products have more potential energy then the reactants. The enthalpy change is a negative value. Whereas, an endothermic reaction involves the absorption of energy into the system and so the reactants have more potential energy than the products. The enthalpy change is a positive value. This is clearly represented in energy profile diagrams.

2. Which of the following accurately pairs
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

C. Electron-negative charge

Explanation:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10³¹Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton = 1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron = 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom.

What is the molecular formula of a hydrocarbon with m+ = 78?
fiasKO [112]

A molecular formula represents the exact number of atoms present for each element in the compound.  

For carbon atom: \frac{78}{12} = 6\frac{6}{12} ( as molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol)

Now, 6 carbon atoms are present and rest are hydrogen atoms i.e. 6

Thus, formula becomes C_{6}H_{6} ( C_{x}H_{y})

Now, check for unsaturation:

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2x+2-y}{2}

Substitute the value of x and y,

Degree of unsaturation  = \frac{2(6)+2-6}{2}

= \frac{12-4}{2}

= 4 implies one ring and three double bonds.

Thus, formula comes out to be C_{6}H_{6} i.e. benzene ring.

determine the percent error if the density of mercury is 13.534g/mL and you measured the density to be 13.000g/mL
9966 [12]

percentage error=difference/actual value x 100

=0.534/13.0 x 100

=4.11%
