Answer:
A. endothermic.
A. Yes, absorbed.
Explanation:
Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.
2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g) ΔH = 182 kJ
The enthalpy of the reaction is positive (ΔH > 0), which means that the reaction is endothermic.
182 kJ are absorbed when 2 moles of HgO react (molar mass 216.59 g/mol). The heat absorbed when 72.8 g of HgO react is:

Explanation:
atom changes from a ground state to an excited state by taking on energy from its surroundings in a process called absorption. The electron absorbs the energy and jumps to a higher energy level. In the reverse process, emission, the electron returns to the ground state by releasing the extra energy it absorbed
Copper (II) Carbonate + Heat yields copper (II) oxide and carbon dioxide
Molecular Equation: CuCo3 + heat > CuO + CO2
There is 6.02*10^23 molecule per mole. And there is 2 atoms per oxygen molecule. So the answer is 1.204*10^24 atoms in 1.0 mole of O2.
