Chemistry

C, because the nervous system takes in information through our senses, processes the information and triggers reactions, such as making your muscles move or causing you to feel pain. For example, if you touch a hot plate, you reflexively pull back your hand and your nerves simultaneously send pain signals to your brain.

Please explain, I don't understand.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

7. A) I, II ; 8. D) 2.34e9 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

7. Combustion of ethanol

I. The negative sign for ΔH shows that the reaction is exothermic.

II. The enthalpy change would be different if gaseous water were produced.

That's because it takes energy to convert liquid water to gaseous water, and this energy is included in the value of ΔH.

III. The reaction is a redox reaction, because

  • Oxygen is reacting with a compound
  • The oxidation number of C increases
  • The oxidation number of O decreases.

IV. The products of the reaction occupy a smaller volume than the reactants, because 3 mol of gaseous reactant are forming 2 mol of gaseous product.

Therefore, only I and II are correct.

7. Hindenburg

Data:

  V = 2.00 × 10⁸ L

  p = 1.00 atm

  T = 25.1 °C

ΔH = -286 kJ·mol⁻¹

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperature to kelvins

T = (25.1 + 273.15) K = 298.25 K

(b) Moles of hydrogen

Use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em>:

pV = nRT

n = (pV)/(RT)

n = (1.00 × 2.00 × 10⁸)/(0.082 06 × 298.25) = 8.172 × 10⁶ mol

(c) Heat evolved

q = nΔH = 8.172 × 10⁶ × (-286) = -2.34 × 10⁹ kJ

The hydrogen in the Hindenburg released 2.34e9 kJ .

If an atom of thorium-234 were to undergo beta emission twice, which atom would result?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  U-234

Explanation:

Data

Thorium-234

beta emission twice

Definition

Beta emission is when a beta particle (electron) is emitted from an atomic nucleus.

First beta emission

                                            ²³⁴₉₀Th   ⇒    ²³⁴₉₁Pa + e⁻

Second beta emission

                                            ²³⁴₉₁ Pa   ⇒  ²³⁴₉₂U  + e⁻

The atom will be Uranium-324
