The answer is

-79 kJ/mol

The explanation:

The reaction equation is:

2Na + 2H2O  2NaOH + H2

when ΔHrxn= -q

and q=cmΔT

where:

-q is amount of heat absorbed/released

-and c is specific heat of solution (in such calculation an assumption is made that c solution =   c water)        

- and m is mass of solution

- and ΔT is temperature change

1- now we need to Find mass of solution:

m solution = m(H2O)+ m(Na)-m(H2)m(H2O)

m H2O= V(H2O)*ρ(H2O)

             = 247 cm3*1g/cm3 = 247 gm

and m(Na)= 13 g

2- now we need to Find m(H2):

n(Na)(moles Na)= mass/Molar mass = 13g/23 g/mol = 0.57 mol.

According to equation mole ratio n(Na):n(H2)= 2:1,

then n(H2)=n(Na)/2

                =0.57/2=0.29 mol.

∴m(H2)= moles * molar mass

          =0.29 mol *2g/mol

          = 0.58 g

∴m solution= 247 g + 13 g – 0.58 g = 259.42 g

and when q=4.18 J/K g* 259.42 g *(339.7 K – 298 K)= 45218 J

The temperature of solution increased because heat was absorbed by the solution (q>0).

Then ΔHrxn= -q = -45218 J per 0.57 mol of Na

3- now we need to Find ΔHrxn per 1 mole of Na

ΔHrxn = -45218J/0.57 mol = -79331 J/mol ≈ -79 kJ/mol

What do you expect will occur as air masses move over cold locations? Hot locations? How does this movement of air masses affect
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

When air masses will move over cold location then bottom layer of air cools and become more dense. Due to its high density it is trapped near the ground then it flow towards the equator.

When it moves over hot location then bottom layer gets hot and lighter. Then it moves towards poles.

It changes the temperature and humidity of the climate. making hoter region coll and cooler region a bit hot.

What would be the composition and ph of an ideal buffer prepared from lactic acid (ch3chohco2h), where the hydrogen atom highlig
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

P_H =2.86

c=1.4\times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

first write the equilibrium equaion ,

C_3H_6O_3  ⇄ C_3H_5O_3^{-}  +H^{+}

assuming degree of dissociation \alpha =1/10;

and initial concentraion of C_3H_6O_3 =c;

At equlibrium ;

concentration of C_3H_6O_3 = c-c\alpha

[C_3H_5O_3^{-}  ]= c\alpha

[H^{+}] = c\alpha

K_a = \frac{c\alpha \times c\alpha}{c-c\alpha}

\alpha is very small so 1-\alpha can be neglected

and equation is;

K_a = {c\alpha \times \alpha}

[H^{+}] = c\alpha = \frac{K_a}{\alpha}

P_H =- log[H^{+} ]

P_H =-logK_a + log\alpha

K_a =1.38\times10^{-4}

\alpha = \frac{1}{10}

P_H= 3.86-1

P_H =2.86

composiion ;

c=\frac{1}{\alpha} \times [H^{+}]

[H^{+}] =antilog(-P_H)

[H^{+} ] =0.0014

c=0.0014\times \frac{1}{10}

c=1.4\times 10^{-4}

Tju [1.3M]
When equilibrium has been reached so, according to this formula we can get the specific heat of the unknown metal and from it, we can define the metal as each metal has its specific heat:

Mw*Cw*ΔTw = Mm*Cm*ΔTm

when 
Mw → mass of water
Cw → specific heat of water
ΔTw → difference in temperature for water 

Mm→ mass of metal
Cw→ specific heat of the metal
ΔTm → difference in temperature for metal

by substitution:

100g * 4.18 * (40-39.8) = 8.23 g * Cm * (50-40)

∴ Cm = 83.6 / 82.3 = 1.02 J/g.°C

when the Cm of the Magnesium ∴ the unknown metal is Mg

Allushta [10]

Answer:

Anita did not make the track team this year, and she feels really disappointed and upset. What question would most likely redirect her thinking and provide a solution?

Why did this terrible thing happen to me?

What other sports can I try this spring?

Why does everything I attempt go wrong?

Why did Karen get on the team but I didn't?

Answer - What other sports can I try this spring?

Explanation:

Failures and successes are part of our daily lives as humans. It can be very challenging for one to accept his or her failures and bring oneself above it.

when failure occur, the best way to reverse the negative impacts it brings is to move forward and decide on what next to do.  

The actions that must be taken in the processes should be quite productive enough to bring back the results one desired.

When the effects of failures prove irreversible, one would then give the mind a diversion and help his or herself think their way though the failure that was encountered.
