Answer : The correct option is, the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

For example :

The formation reaction of CO will be,

C(graphite)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO(g)    \Delta H_{formation}

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) C(graphite)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_1

(2) CO+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2

The expression for enthalpy of formation of CO is,

\Delta H_{formation}=[n\times \Delta H_1]+[n\times \Delta H_2]

where,

n = number of moles

By adding reaction 1 and reverse reaction of reaction 2, we get the enthalpy of formation of CO.

Hence, the correct option is, the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

How many moles of KNO3 are in 500 mL of 2. 0 M KNO3? mol KNO3.
8090 [49]

The moles can be defined as the mass of the substance with respect to molar mass. The moles of potassium nitrate is 1 mol.

<h3>How to calculate moles of a substance?</h3>

The moles of a compound can be calculated from:

\rm Moles=\dfrac{Mass}{Molar\;mass}

The molarity can be defined as the moles of solute in a liter of solution.

The molarity can be expressed as:

\rm Molarity=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{Volume\;(mL)}

The molarity of potassium nitrate solution is 2 M, and the volume is 500 mL.

The moles of potassium nitrate is given as:

\rm 2\;M=\dfrac{Moles\;\times\;1000}{500\;mL}\\ Moles=\dfrac{2\;\times\;500}{1000}\;mol\\ Moles=1\;mol

The moles of potassium nitrate in 2 M, 500 mL solution are 1 mol.

Can boron atoms, B form dative bonds with nitrogen atoms, N in the compound ammonia?​
expeople1 [14]

"The boron-nitrogen interaction in the studied molecules shows some similarities with the N→B bond in the H3N-BH3 molecule, formally understood as covalent-dative. ... The results show that all the studied BN bonds are triple, since three two-center orbitals have been obtained."

"Formation of a dative bond or coordinate bond between ammonia and boron trifluoride. When the nitrogen donates a pair of electrons to share with the boron, the boron gains an octet. ... In addition, a pair of non-bonding electrons becomes bonding; they are delocalized over two atoms and become lower in energy."
