Answer:

The answer is option a. The evaporation of water from the skin

Explanation:

An endothermic reaction is any synthetic reaction that retains heat from its environment. The ingested energy gives the enactment energy to the reaction to happen.

No new bonds formed, no bonds broken in this example. water molecules go from liquid to vapour (gas ), intermolecular bond exist between polar (-OH) molecules and energy is required to break these bonds during the change from liquid to gas. So, it is endothermic .

Remaining three above examples are exothermic. combustion of gas releases energy(exothermic). burninig of the candle exothermic because the energy released from the oxygen into carbon dioxide and water.oxidation of iron also exothermic

Which type of rock forms as a result of cooling and crystallization?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Igneous rock is the type of rock that forms as a result of cooling an crystallization

Explanation:

  • Rocks are either sedimentary, igneous or metamorphic based on the chemical composition and the mode of formation.
  • Igneous rocks are formed as a result of the cooling and crystallization of magma from volcanic eruptions.
  • Igneous rocks are either intrusive, which form deep in the crust or extrusive which form on the surface of the earth.
  • Sedimentary rocks are formed as a result of deposition, and cementation of sediments.
  • Metamorphic rocks, on the other hand, are formed from the sedimentary and igneous rocks during the rock cycle.

In what beaker does the sugar dissolve the fastest? ( particle size, temp. of water, condition(stir/no stir), etc).
Vsevolod [243]
Temperature. In case you have ever baked, you can relate to this. For example, when you make caramel, you simply put the caramel on a boiling hot pan and sit back and watch it. It always goes fastest this way.

Phosphorus oxychloride has the chemical formula POCl3, with P as the central atom. In order to minimize formal charge, how many
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Phosphorus makes 5 bonds with other atoms

Explanation:

POCl_{3} has total 32 number of valence electrons (P has 5 , O has 6 and Cl has 7 valence electrons).

These valence electrons are used to draw Lewis structure of POCl_{3}.

Formal charge on an atom = (no. of valence electrons of the atom)-(no. of covalent bonds attached to the atom)-(no. of electrons in lone pair of the atom)

Applying octet rule (atoms have eight electrons in their valence shell) and minimizing formal charge of POCl_{3}, it has been found that P makes total 5 bonds with rest of the atoms.

Lewis structure of POCl_{3} along with formal charge (in parentheses) has been given below.
