Answer:

ΔH = 200 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

activation energy (Ea) is:  450 kJ/mol

activation energy (Ea) of the reverse reaction is 250 kJ/mol

Step 2: The balanced equations

C4H10 ---> C2H6 + C2H4  Ea = 450 kJ/mol

C2H6 + C2H4 ---> C4H10    Ea = 250 kJ/mol

Step 3: Calculate ΔH

Since the reverse reaction has a lower activation energy, this means we need less reaction for the reverse reaction to happen. We can say the reaction absorbs energy, so this is the endothermic reaction.

Ea ( of the forward reaction) = ΔH + Ea (of the reverse reaction)

ΔH = Ea ( of the forward reaction) - Ea (of the reverse reaction)

ΔH = 450 kJ/mol - 250 kJ/mol

ΔH = 200 kJ/mol

Since the reactionis endothermi, ΔH is positive

Mama L [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

We are usually asked to close the valve of the gas cylinder in our various kitchens at home <u>due to the inflammable property of the Liquified Petroleum Gas.</u>

<em>Without closing the valve, the LPG would diffuse into our homes, and any form of spark would cause an explosion and lead to a fire. Lives and properties could be lost in the process.</em>

The correct option is A.

An empty plastic bottle is sealed in a cool room and then moved to a very hot room. What can best be stated about the air pressu
mel-nik [20]
<span>A fast moving stream of air has a lower air pressure than a slower air stream.  As the stream of air moved over the top of the paper, the air pressure over the paper dropped. The air pressure underneath the paper stayed the same.  The greater air pressure underneath lifted the paper strip and it rose. The idea that a moving air stream has lower air pressure than air that is not moving is called “Bernoulli’s Principle”.

</span>The force of the moving air underneath the balloon was enough to hold it up.  The weight added by the paper clip prevents the balloon from going too high.  But that is only part of the story.  The balloon stays inside the moving stream of air because the pressure inside is the air stream is lower than the still air around it. As the balloon moves toward the still air outside of the air stream, the higher pressure of the still air forces the balloon back into the lower pressure of the air stream.  Bernoulli’s Principle at work again!

1) An unlabeled laboratory solution is found to contain a H+ ion concentration of 1 x 10-4
marishachu [46]

Answer:

C) 1 x 10-10 M

Explanation:

To solve this question we must use the equation:

Kw = [H+] [OH-]

<em>Where Kw is the equilibrium dissociation of water = 1x10-14</em>

<em>[H+] is the molar concentration of hydronium ion = 1x10-4M</em>

<em>[OH-] is the molar concentration of hydroxyl ion</em>

<em />

Replacing:

1x10-14= 1x10-4 [OH-]

<em>[OH-] = 1x10-14 / 1x10-4M</em>

<em>[OH-] = 1x10-10 M</em>

Right option is:

<h3>C) 1 x 10-10 M </h3>

Convert 6.93 x 1024 atoms of carbon to moles of carbon.
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: 11.5 moles of carbon

Explanation:

Based on Avogadro's law:

1 mole of any substance has 6.02 x 10^23 atoms

So, 1 mole of carbon = 6.02 x 10^23 atoms

Z moles = 6.93 x 10^24 atoms

To get the value of Z, cross multiply:

(6.93 x 10^24 atoms x 1mole) = (6.02 x 10^23 atoms x Z moles)

6.93 x 10^24 = (6.02 x 10^23 x Z)

Z = (6.93 x 10^24) ➗ (6.02 x 10^23)

Z = 1.15 x 10

Z = 11.5 moles

Thus, there are 11.5 moles of carbon.
