What is the relationship between mass and the end stages of stars

1 answer:

6 0

The mass of stars affect how they end.

Stars with greater mass sometimes end with supernovas, a giant explosion, which can result in black holes or neutron stars, or sometimes nothing.

A medium sized star can result in a planetary nebula, which then results in a white dwarf.

Haha hope this sorta helped :)

Calculate the standard reaction enthalpy for the reaction NO2(g) → NO(g) + O(g) given +142.7 kJ/mol for the standard enthalpy of

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The standard reaction enthalpy for the given reaction is 235.15 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

$O_2(g) \rightarrow \frac{2}{3}O_3(g),\Delta H^o_{1}=142.7 kJ/mol$ ..[1]

$O_2(g) \rightarrow 2 O(g),\Delta H^o_{2}=498.4 kJ/mol$ ..[2]

$NO(g) + O_3(g)\rightarrow NO_2(g) + O_2(g) ,\Delta H^o_{3} = -200 kJ/mol$ ..[3]

$NO_2(g)\rightarrow NO(g) + O(g),\Delta H^o_{4}=?$ ..[4]

Using Hess's law:

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

2 × [4] = [2]- (3 ) × [1] - (2) × [3]

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=\Delta H^o_{2} -3\times \Delta H^o_{1}-2\times \Delta H^o_{3}$

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=498.4 kJ/mol-3\times 142.7 kJ/mol-2\times -200 kJ/mol$

$2\times \Delta H^o_{4}=470.3 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H^o_{4}=\frac{470.3 kJ/mol}{2}=235.15 kJ/mol$

The standard reaction enthalpy for the given reaction is 235.15 kJ/mol.
