Why do magnesium and oxygen need to be heated for a reaction to occur?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]3 years ago
7 0

Because flame provides a source of heat so that the magnesium metal atoms can overcome their activation energy. Activation energy is the minimum energy required in order for a chemical reaction to proceed. When the magnesium metal burns it reacts with oxygen found in the air to form Magnesium Oxide.

How much heat is required to vaporize 25g of water at 100*c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.

Explanation:

To convert a water to steam at 100 degree celsius to vapor, we have to give latent heat of vaporization to water

Which equals ,

Q = mL,

Where, m is the mass of water present

           L = specific latent heat of vaporization

Here , m= 25 gram

L equals to 533 calories (or 2230 Joules)

So, Q = 25×533 = 13,325 Calories

Or , Q = 55,750 Joules = 55.75 KJ

so, Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.
