Chemical equation is the symbolic representation of chemical reactions.

Explanation

Chemical reactions are known as the reaction where two or more molecules or compounds react with each other leading to formation of product compounds along with either release or absorption of energy.

The symbolic representation of the processes occurring in a chemical reaction is termed as chemical equation.

The symbolic representation includes the reactants, products, external energy type and quantity of external energy and also about release of energy if occurs.

So the reactants are usually written in the left side of the chemical equation whereas on the right the products are written.

Both the sides are linked by a single headed arrow mark.

Some both the sides are linked by double heated arrow mark indicating the equilibrium chemical reaction.

5. How much heat (in calories) is absorbed by a reaction when

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

1.2 × 10⁴ cal

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of water (m): 300 g

Initial temperature: 80 °C

Final temperature: 40°C

We can calculate the heat released by the water ( $Q_w$ ) when it cools using the following expression.

$Q_w = c \times m \times (T_f - T_i)$

where

c is the specific heat capacity of water (1 cal/g.°C)

$Q_w = \frac{1cal}{g.\°C} \times 300g \times (40\°C - 80\°C) = -1.2 \times 10^{4} cal$

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the water ( $Q_w$ ) and the heat absorbed by the reaction ( $Q_r$ ) is zero.

$Q_w + Q_r = 0\\Q_r = -Q_w = 1.2 \times 10^{4} cal$

I need an example of a chemical change involving water.Pleaseeee.

slava [35]

Chemical change occur when two substances are combined and produces a new substance or decomposes into two or more substances which are entirely different from the original two substances.

There are three types of chemical changes. These are 1) Inorganic Changes, 2) Organic Changes, and 3) Biochemical Changes

Here are some examples of chemicsal changes.

If you combine Sodium and Water, chemical changes causes decomposition into Sodium Hydroxide and Hydrogen.

Sodium + Water ==> Sodium Hydroxide and Hydrogen

Na + H2O ====> NaOH and H

Another example of chemical change is:

Carbon Dioxide and Water will decompose into Sugar and Oxygen

Carbon Dioxide + Water ==> Sugar and Oxygen

CO2 + H2O ==> CnH2nOn (where n is between 3 and 7) and O
