If an ice cube melts at 0oC but water also freezes at 0oC, what is the difference between melting and freezing in terms of (a) t

The energy involved in melting in freezing is heat, At 0 degrees Celsius ice is at an equilibrium where the heat energy absorbed during melting (endothermic) and heat energy dispersed during freezing (exothermic). When ice melts its absorbs heat energy to change states, when water freezes to ice it dispersed heat energy so that the particles can move slow enough to be almost frozen, but still very small vibrations throughout the ice. Particles in the frozen state are packed tightly and help together by a crystal lattice and IMF's, liquid is free flowing with free floating particles that can move freely from one another particle.

What are the products of the following combustion reaction?<br><br> 2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) →
kakasveta [241]
A combustion reaction of an  will generally produce CO2 and H20 -- carbon dioxide and water and/or an oxide

looking at the combustion material C2H2, you know that the end products will be CO2 and H20, so the question is how much of each will you get

well, look at the total amount of carbon atoms, 2 C2, which means a total of 4 carbon atoms in this reaction, since only CO2 has carbon atoms, that means there must be 4 CO2 as an end product and 4 CO2 will use up 4 of 5 O2 molecule leaving only 1 O2 molecule for the H2 reaction.

now O2 has a total of 2 oxygen molecules whereas H20 has only a single oxygen molecule, hence the end product must have 2 H20

check that the H atoms balance out on both sides
