Answer:
ΔH of the reaction is -802.3kJ.
Explanation:
Using Hess's law, you can know ΔH of reaction by the sum of ΔH's of half-reactions.
Using the reactions:
<em>(1) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ 2H₂(g) → CH₄(g) ΔH₁ = −74.80kJ
<em>(2) </em>Cgraphite(s)+ O₂(g) → CO₂(g) ΔH₂ = −393.5k
J
<em>(3) </em>H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g) → H₂O(g) ΔH₃ = −241.80kJ
The sum of (2) - (1) produce:
CH₄(g) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂(g) ΔH' = -393.5kJ - (-74.80kJ) = -318.7kJ
And the sum of this reaction with 2×(3) produce:
CH₄(g) + 2 O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g) And ΔH = -318.7kJ + 2×(-241.80kJ) =
<em>-802.3kJ</em>
It would decrease because they will be using less of their AC now that they've improved insulation.
The correct answer is B)wave mechanical. Hope that helps! If you have any questions about the answer i gave you please let me know!
