1) When chromium chloride, CrCl2, is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water decreases. a) Is the heat of solution exot

hermic or endothermic? b) Which is stronger—the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl2 and intermolecular forces between water molecules? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:  It has been given that the temperature of the water decreases when chromium chloride is dissolved in water. Thus fall in the temperature explains the fact that the bond energies of the reactants have more energy rather than the products.

a) Thus the heat of the solution is endothermic in nature as more energy is needed to break the reactant molecules.

b) The combined ionic bond strength of CrCl2 and inter molecular forces between water molecules must be stronger than the attractive forces between the  water molecules and chromium and chloride ions as the reaction is endothermic in nature thus more energy would be required to break the bonds between the reactants hence making them more stronger.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are 64.7g of benzene,C6H6; a starting temperature of 41.9°C and bringing it to 33.2°C.

Molar mass of benzene,C6H6= 78.11236 g/mol.

Things to know: heat capacity of benzene, C6H6= 1.63 J/g.K, the heat of fusion = 9.87 kj/mol.

STEP ONE(1): ENERGY USED IN MELTING BENZENE SOLID.

Using the formula below;

Energy used in melting the solid(in JOULES) = (mass of benzene/molar mass of benzene) × heat of Fusion.

=(64.7 g of C6H6/ 78.11236(g per mol) of C6H6) × 9.87 kJ per mol.

= 8.175 J.

= 0.008175 kJ.

STEP TWO (2): ENERGY OF HEATING THE LIQUID.

It can be calculated from the formula below;

Energy= heat capacity (J/g.K) × mass of benzene× (∆T).

= 1.63 J/g.K × 64.7 × (41.9-33.2).

= 917.5J.

= 0.9175 kJ.

Energy required to boil benzene= Energy required to melt the bezene + energy required for boiling.

= 0.008175+ 0.9175.

= 0.93kJ

Approximately, 1 kJ

Aliun [14]

Answer:

c. Only certain energies are allowed for the electron in a hydrogen atom

Explanation:

Emission spectrum are produced when the excited electron in a atom release the energy in the form of photons to come to ground state. These photons are of different wavelengths depending on the excitation state of emitting electron or transition of electron. These electromagnetic radiation are observed through prism to produce the spectrum.

As the name indicates this spectrum is produced by emission of energy. Although the electron can be excited by different methods such as by heating but the key point is that electrons in hydrogen atom will emit the photons of same energy which they absorb and each electron can absorb only certain type of energy. So four lines were observed in the visible spectrum of hydrogen because only certain energies are observed for hydrogen atom.
