A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure formed by geological processes. A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals whereas a rock may also include organic remains and mineraloids.

How does the number of subatomic particles change as the carbon isotope<br> decays?
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

C decays by a process called beta decay. During this process, an atom of 14C decays into an atom of 14N, during which one of the neutrons in the carbon atom becomes a proton. This increases the number of protons in the atom by one, creating a nitrogen atom rather than a carbon atom.

How does the A Hreaction relate to the A He of molecules involved in a reaction?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

B. ΔHreaction = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products

Explanation:

<em>Using Hess's law, it is possible to sum ΔH of several related reactions to find ΔH of a particular reaction</em>.

Having in mind Hess's law, ΔH°f is defined as the change in enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of substance from its constituent elements (That is, pure elements, mono or diatomics, that have a ΔH° = 0).

For example, in ΔH°f of H₂O, the equation is:

H₂(g) + 1/2O₂(g) → H₂O(g)

The constituent elements with ΔH°f = 0 are H₂(g) and O₂(g).

Now, using Hess's law, you can sum the ΔH°f of substance in a reaction as, for example:

NaOH + HCl → H₂O + NaCl. ΔHr

The ΔH°f for each substance in the reaction is:

NaOH: Na + 1/2H₂ + 1/2O₂ → NaOH <em>(1)</em>

HCl: 1/2H₂ + 1/2Cl₂ → HCl <em>(2)</em>

H₂O: H₂ + 1/2O₂ → H₂O <em>(3)</em>

NaCl: Na + 1/2Cl₂ → NaCl <em>(4)</em>

The algebraic sum of (3) + (4) is -(ΔH°f reactants):

H₂ + 1/2O₂ + Na + 1/2Cl₂ → NaCl + H₂O ΔH°f reactants

This reaction - {(1)+(2)} ΔH°f products

NaOH + HCl → H₂O + NaCl.

ΔHr = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products

In the example, we obtain this relationship that can be expanded for all reactions. Thus, right answer is:

<h3>B. ΔHreaction = ΔH°f reactants- ΔH°f products</h3>
