Answer:

Explanation:

If the temperature of the water goes up, the reaction is exothermic (heat is being given away by the equation -- more precisely the reactants of the equation). Only A and B can be true. In order for the reaction to occur, the water has to absorb the heat. It's temperature goes up. Remember that minus sign. It is almost the key fact for this question.

The question is not as hard as it looks, but that is easy for me to say.

m = 100 g

c = 4.2 J/(g * oC)

deltaT = 21 - 20 degrees = 1 degree.

Heat = 100 * 4.2 * 1

Heat = 420 J

Heat = 420 * [1 kJ/1000 J]

Heat = -0.42 kJ

In the reaction H2SO4 + 2 NaOH -> Na2SO4 + 2H2O, an equivalence point occurs when 29.43 mL of 0.1973 M NaOH is added to a 32.

Tamiku [17]

            moles NaOH = c · V = 0.1973 mmol/mL · 29.43 mL = 5.806539 mmol
            moles H2SO4 = 5.806539 mmol NaOH · 1 mmol H2SO4 / 2 mmol NaOH = 2.9032695 mmol
Hence
            [H2SO4]= n/V = 2.9032695 mmol / 32.42 mL = 0.08955 M
The answer to this question is [H2SO4] = 0.08955 M

A great white shark has resided at a depth where the pressure is 16 atm. If the initial volume of its swim bladder is 4 L, what

padilas [110]

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 32L

Explanation:

P1 = 16atm

V1 = 4L

P2 = atm

V2 = ?

According to Boyle's law, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its volume provided the temperature remains constant.

P1 * V1 = P2 * V2

V2 = (P1 * V1) / P2

V2 = (16 * 4) / 2

V2 = 64 / 2

V2 = 32L

The new volume of the gas is 32L

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following: The destruction of a marble statuary by acid rain: aqueous nitric acid r

Mashcka [7]

Answer: The coefficient in front of nitric acid is 2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas. Liquids are represented by (l) and gases are represented by (g).

The balanced chemical reaction is :

$CaCO_3(s)+2HNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)+CO_2(g)+H_2O(l)$
