I am Lyosha [343]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Sodium reacts with the oxygen in air to form sodium oxide, and traces of yellowish sodium peroxide. ... Probably, the reaction with atmospheric oxygen will be faster, because I have never seen sodium metal turning whitish on exposure, though it does lose its lustre and and reactivity (just the surface).

Predict whether the following reactions will be exothermic or endothermic.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃    exothermic

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g)    exothermic

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) endothermic

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) exothermic

Explanation:

The question says predict not calculate. So you have to use your chemistry knowledge, experience and intuition.

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃    is exothermic because the Haber process gives out energy

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g)    is exothermic because it is a combustion. The majority, if not all, combustion give out energy.

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) is endothermic because it is the reverse reaction of the combustion of hydrogen. If the reverse reaction is exothermic then the forward reaction is endothermic  

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) is exothermic because the backward reaction is endothermic. Atomisation is always an endothermic reaction so the forward reaction is exothermic

SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME?!?!
labwork [276]

Answer:

Determining the pH of substances such as purple grape juice and catsup using test strips can be difficult. Why?

Explanation:

Due to the tartaric acid present in these substances, this is a weak acid and is the predominant type of acid in grapes.

pH meters for these substances, measure the total acidity of the sample and convert it into tartaric acid concentration; The test strips are a qualitative method of measurement and their result can give different opinions.
