The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 338 kJ during a certain chemical reaction, which is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that 187 kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic ?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Change in enthalpy (\Delta H) = -338 kJ (as it is a decrease)

    Work done = 187 kJ,

    Change in energy (\Delta E) = ?

Now, according to the first law of thermodynamics the formula is as follows.

          \Delta H = \Delta E + P \Delta V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        \Delta H = \Delta E + P \Delta V

Also, we know that W = P \Delta V

so,           \Delta H = \Delta E + W      

              -338 kJ = \Delta E + 187

              \Delta E = -151 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction is -151 kJ.

lions [1.4K]

Answer: They will repel each other.

Explanation:

Two inflated balloons when rubbed with woolen cloth will lead to repeal each other because of the similar charges on both the balloons.

Rubbing both the balloons together by the woolen cloth will introduce negative charge in the balloons.

As, we know that the same charges repeal each other both of the balloons with be apart from each other.

This is due to the static electricity, the negatively charged particles jump to the positive one. When balloons are rubbed they become negatively charged.

Us your understanding of asexual reproduction to explain why is it important that organisms reproduce in a variety of ways.

The genetic material is identical in asexual reproduction- in order for organisms to be strong they need variety so if a disease comes, some of the species may be able to fight it off because of their varied genetics

1. How is a whistling teapot like a volcano?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Because of the build up of pressure. There is so much steam coming from such a compressed point, it’s coming out in force.

Now think of that same spot being closed, it only has one place to go but it can’t leave, so that pressure will build and build and then BOOM, it explodes.

In short, the answer is the pressure being released from a small point, and how that energy is released.
