Answer:
C
Explanation:
In thermodynamics, a exothermic system looses heat to the surroundings while an endothermic system absorbs heat from the surroundings.
A system is a part the universe marked off by a specified boundary. The contents of the cup constitutes the system in this case.
The region of space outside the system is called the surroundings. Hence everything outside the cup constitutes the surroundings.
A) BaCl2
b)Li2S

Answer:
-800 kJ/mol
Explanation:
To solve the problem, we have to express the enthalpy of combustion (ΔHc) in kJ per mole (kJ/mol).
First, we have to calculate the moles of methane (CH₄) there are in 2.50 g of substance. For this, we divide the mass into the molecular weight Mw) of CH₄:
Mw(CH₄) = 12 g/mol C + (1 g/mol H x 4) = 16 g/mol
moles CH₄ = mass CH₄/Mw(CH₄)= 2.50 g/(16 g/mol) = 0.15625 mol CH₄
Now, we divide the heat released into the moles of CH₄ to obtain the enthalpy per mole of CH₄:
ΔHc = heat/mol CH₄ = 125 kJ/(0.15625 mol) = 800 kJ/mol
Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of methane is -800 kJ/mol (the minus sign indicated that the heat is released).
