So in order to answer this we need the number of moles of oxygen and the right stoichiometry.
The balanced reaction should be 2HgO --> 2Hg + O2, therefore 2 moles of mercury are produced for every one mole of oxygen gas. Since we have the mass of O2 we can calculate the moles as moles = mass/RMM where RMM is the relative molecular mass of O2, which is 32 g/mol. Therefore the number of moles = 125/16 = 3.9 mol.
Since 2 moles of Hg are produced for every one mole of O2, the number of moles of Hg = 3.9*2 = 7.8 mol.

Select all of the following equations that represent an exothermic reaction.

Answer:

C(graphite) → C(diamond), ΔH = - 0.45 kcal

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + 212,800 cal

Explanation:

C(graphite) → C(diamond), ΔH = - 0.45 kcal

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + 212,800 cal

These reactions are exothermic reaction because heat is evolved.

The energy changes occur during the bonds formation and bonds breaking.

There are two types of reaction endothermic and exothermic reaction.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol

how can you make the gravitational force between two 50kg objects less than the gravitational force between two 5kg objects
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two 50kg objects could be less than the gravitational force between a 50kg and a 5kg object if the two 50kg objects are much farther apart.
