Answer:

Endothermic

It absorbs heat

1.20 × 10³ kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.

2 H₂O(l) → 2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH = 572 kJ

Since ΔH > 0, the reaction is endothermic, that is, it absorbs heat when H₂O reacts.

572 kJ are absorbed when 36.03 g of water react. The heat absorbed when 75.8 g of H₂O react is:

75.8 g H₂O × (572 kJ/36.03 g H₂O) = 1.20 × 10³ kJ

The percent yield of a chemical reaction is valuable to many industries. Low percent yields can result in the loss of large amou

aev [14]

Using accurate measurements, using pure chemicals and performing the reaction under the most ideal conditions is important to get a valuable percent yield.

<h3>How we calculate the percent yield?</h3>

Percent yield of any chemical reaction is define as the ratios of the actual yield to the theoretical yield of the product and multiply by the 100.

To get the high percent yield or actual yield of any reaction, we have to perform the reaction under ideal condition because if we not use the standard condition then we get the low rate of reaction. Reactants should be present in the pure form as impurity make unwanted products and reduce the productivity of main product and accurate amount of reactants also important for the spontaneous reaction.
