Relative dating is the process of determining whether an object or event is older or younger than other objects or events. Absolute dating is d<span>etermining the age of an event or object in years. From absolute dating, the real age of the object is obtained which is not present for relative dating. Hope this helps.</span>

Having energy in the reactant lead to an exothermic reaction.<br>true<br>false

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

first of all;-energy lead to an indotermic reaction.

indotermic is a reaction that absorbs energy \

*it has positive enthalpy of reaction

*Heat content of product is greater than that of reactant

*Heat is added to reactant side

example;- CO^2+2H^2+891kj --------- CH4 +2O2

Answer:

y1 = 0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

Explanation:

ok let us begin,

first we would be defining the parameters;

at 25°C;

1-propanol P1° = 20.90 Torr

2-propanol P2° = 45.2 Torr

From Raoults law:

P(1-propanol) = P⁰ × X(1-propanol)

P(1-propanol) = 20.9 torr × 0.45 = 9.405

P(1-propanol) = 9.405 torr

Also P(2-propanol) = P⁰ × X(2-propanol)

P(2-propanol) = 45.2 torr × 0.45

P(2-propanol) = 20.34 torr

but the total pressure = sum of individual pressures

total pressure = 9.405 + 20.34

total pressure = 29.745 torr

given that y1 and y2 represent the mole fraction of each in the vapor phase

y1 = P1 / total pressure

y1 = 9.405/29.745

y1 = 0.3162

Since y1 + y2 = 1

y2 = 1 - y1

∴ y2 = 1 - 0.3162

y2 = 0.6838

cheers, i hope this helps.

What we call "tin cans" are really iron cans coated with a thin layer of tin. The anode is a bar of tin and the cathode is the i

UNO [17]

Answer:

$Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + Sn (s)$

Explanation:

Although the context is not clear, let's look at the oxidation and reduction processes that will take place in a Fe/Sn system.

The problem states that anode is a bar of thin. Anode is where the process of oxidation takes place. According to the abbreviation 'OILRIG', oxidation is loss, reduction is gain. Since oxidation occurs at anode, this is where loss of electrons takes place. That said, tin loses electrons to become tin cation:

$Sn (s)\rightarrow Sn^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-$

Similarly, iron is cathode. Cathode is where reduction takes place. Reduction is gain of electrons, this means iron cations gain electrons and produce iron metal:

$Fe^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-\rightarrow Fe (s)$

The net equation is then:

$Sn (s) + Fe^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)$

However, this is not the case, as this is not a spontaneous reaction, as iron metal is more reactive than tin metal, and this is how the coating takes place. This implies that actually anode is iron and cathode is tin:

Actual anode half-equation:

$Fe (s)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-$

Actual cathode half-equation:

$Sn^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-\rightarrow Sn (s)$

Actual net reaction:

$Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + Sn (s)$
