Hydrogen reacts with chlorine to form hydrogen chloride (HCl (g), mc012-1.jpgHf = –92.3 kJ/mol) according to the reaction below.
Kobotan [32]

<u>Given:</u>

H2(g) + Cl2 (g) → 2HCl (g)

<u>To determine:</u>

The enthalpy of the reaction and whether it is endo or exothermic

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy of a reaction is given by the difference between the enthalpy of formation of reactants and products

ΔH = ∑nHf (products) - ∑nHf (reactants)

      = [2Hf(HCl)] - [Hf(H2) + Hf(Cl2)] = 2 (-92.3) kJ = - 184.6 kJ

Since the reaction enthalpy is negative, the reaction is exothermic

<u>Ans:</u> The enthalpy of reaction is -184. kJ and the reaction is exothermic

In a sample of solid ba(no3)2 the ratio of barium ions to nitrate ions is
user100 [1]
<span>In a sample of solid Ba(NO3)2 the ratio of barium ions to nitrate ions is would be one is to 2 or 1:2. Barium ion has a formal charge of positive two which means that it needs two ions which has a formal charge of negative one or 1 ion with the formal charge of negative two. However, for this case, it is bonded to a nitrate ion which has a formal charge of negative one. Therefore, it needs two nitrate ions so that for every 1 atom of barium ion, we need two ions of nitrate ions.</span>

Which is a characteristic of nuclear fusion but NOT nuclear fission?
lisabon 2012 [21]
The answer is B. is the energy source of stars.

Fission is the type of nuclear energy simulated on Earth, as it is the one used to generate electricity. Fusion, on the other hand, is much more complicated to achieve because it requires extremely hot temperatures compared to fission. Fusion involves the combination of two hydrogen atoms to make helium, which releases a lot of energy. Stars such as the sun, exhibit fusion with its very hot temperature and abundant source of hydrogen.

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. Which term best describes this compound’s behavior?
Cloud [144]

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. The compound acts as a Lewis base.

<h3>What are the most common acid-base theories?</h3>
  • Arrhenius: acids release H⁺ and bases release OH⁻.
  • Bronsted-Lowry: acids donate H⁺ and bases accept H⁺.
  • Lewis: acids accept electrons and bases donate electrons.

A compound accepts electrons from another substance to form a covalent bond. Which term best describes this compound’s behavior?

  • Lewis acid. YES.
  • Arrhenius base. NO, because OH⁻ is not involved.
  • Bronsted-Lowry acid. NO, because H⁺ is not involved.
  • Bronsted-Lowry base. NO, because H⁺ is not involved.
