Which of the following is an exothermic reaction?

Chemistry

Chemical reactions can be broadly classified into two categories from the context of heat requirement. These include; endothermic and exothermic reactions.

Endothermic reactions proceed with the absorption of heat while exothermic reactions are accompanied by the evolution of heat.

1) Oxidation of iron involves reaction of elemental iron with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust). This is essentially a corrosion reaction in which the metallic bonds in Fe are broken and new bonds between Fe and O are formed, This is an exothermic reaction

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Ans D)

2) The process of condensation i.e. phase change liquid to solid (or gas to liquid) involves release of heat to the surroundings, hence it will be an exothermic reaction.

Ans B)

3) Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by a 1 C. Typically, liquids and gases are used as coolants. For a coolant to be efficient, it must have a high specific heat.

Ans B)

Ethane, C2H6, can be formed by reacting acetylene, C2H2, with hydrogen gas as follows: C2H2(g) H2(g) ⇌ C2H6(g) Exothermic What c
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Equilibrium shifts to the right

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one in which temperature is released to the environment. Hence, if the reaction vessel housing an exothermic reaction is touched after reaction completion, we will notice that the reaction vessel e.g beaker is hot.

To consider the equilibrium response to temperature changes, we need to consider if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. In the case of this particular question, it has been established that the reaction is exothermic.

Heat is released to the surroundings as the reactants are at a higher energy level compared to the products. Hence, increasing the temperature will favor the formation of more reactants and as such, the equilibrium position will shift to the left to pave way for the formation of more reactants. Thus , more acetylene and hydrogen would be yielded

Convert 7.89 x 10^8 molecules of water to liters.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

2.94 x 10⁻¹⁴L

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to assume that the condition of this water is at standard temperature and pressure, STP.

At STP;

       1 mole of gas have a volume of 22.4L

So, let us find the number of moles of this water first;

         6.02 x 10²³ molecules can be found in 1 mole of a substance

          7.89 x 10⁸ molecules will contain \frac{7.89 x 10^{8} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }   = 1.31 x 10⁻¹⁵mole of water

So;

        Volume of water  = 22.4 x 1.31 x 10⁻¹⁵  = 2.94 x 10⁻¹⁴L
