Answer:

A. endothermic.

A. Yes, absorbed.

Explanation:

Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.

2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)  ΔH = 182 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is positive (ΔH > 0), which means that the reaction is endothermic.

182 kJ are absorbed when 2 moles of HgO react (molar mass 216.59 g/mol). The heat absorbed when 72.8 g of HgO react is:

72.8g.\frac{1mol}{216.59g} .\frac{182kJ}{2mol} =30.6kJ/mol

Select the correct answer. Which statement best describes how chemical equations demonstrate conservation of mass? OA The number
timofeeve [1]

Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.

A 10​-liter ​[l] flask contains 1.4 moles​ [mol] of an ideal gas at a temperature of 20 degrees celsius ​[degrees​c]. What is th
Lynna [10]

The pressure in the flask is 3.4 atm.

<em>pV</em> = <em>nRT </em>

<em>T</em> = (20 + 273.15) K = 293.15 K

<em>p</em> = (<em>nRT</em>)/<em>V</em> = (1.4 mol × 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ × 293.15 K)/10 L = 3.4 atm

Select the correct use of the compound tms in nmr spectroscopy.a. it is a signal-to-noise enhancerb. it is an internal standard
SpyIntel [72]

TMS stands for Tetramethylsilane

Formula : Si(CH₃)₄

It is used as internal standard for chemical shift

In TMS all the four methyl groups are similar thus all the 12 hydrogen are chemically equivalent. They will show proton NMR at same level and which will appear as a singlet.

We have defined this singlet to be as reference set as zero.

Generally the other organic compounds show chemical shift downfield.So have positive chemical shift with respect to TMS shift.

Take a paperclip into water and then slowly pull it upward to the point where it is nearly free from the surface. You'll find th
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Adhesive forces and cohesive forces

Explanation:

Cohesive forces is how much the water molecules stick to each other and adhesive forces are to which extinct they stick to other surfaces.

When we pull the paperclip upward the water molecules adhere to it due to adhesive forces. While the water on the clip is remain connected to water in the glass because of cohesive forces.

So if the adhesive forces dominates the water will be pulled out and if the cohesive forces dominate it will remain with other water in the cup.
