Why are different units of measurement used for distances in space

Chemistry
1 answer:

Not all units of measurement are equal, but the value of each unit is used for its intended purpose, so we have different units of measurement for each problem.

Explain why the total amount of energy does not decrease in an exergonic <br> chemical reaction
Zielflug [23.3K]

An exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy),[1] indicating a spontaneous reaction. For processes that take place under constant pressure and temperature conditions, the Gibbs free energy is used whereas the Helmholtz energy is used for processes that take place under constant volume and temperature conditions.

Symbolically, the release of free energy, G, in an exergonic reaction (at constant pressure and temperature) is denoted as

{\displaystyle \Delta G=G_{\rm {products}}-G_{\rm {reactants}}<0.\,}

Although exergonic reactions are said to occur spontaneously, this does not imply that the reaction will take place at an observable rate. For instance, the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide is very slow in the absence of a suitable catalyst. It has been suggested that eager would be a more intuitive term in this context.[2]

More generally, the terms exergonic and endergonic relate to the free energy change in any process, not just chemical reactions. An example of an exergonic reaction is cellular respiration. This relates to the degrees of freedom as a consequence of entropy, the temperature, and the difference in heat released or absorbed.

By contrast, the terms exothermic and endothermic relate to the overall exchange of heat during a process

You push on the side of a toy truck rolling along the floor. What will happen to the motion of the truck?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The direction will be changed .

Explanation:

According to the principles of motion, if an object is moving with solitary velocity and if an external force is applied to it, then that force changes the position, speed, and direction of that object.

In the given question, an external force is being applied to the toy which will change the direction of that toy.

What is the balanced net ionic equation including phases for K2SO4 and SrI2
Triss [41]

Answer:

Sr 2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → SrSO4(s)

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Write a properly balanced equation with states:

K2SO4(aq) + Srl2(aq) → 2KI(aq) + SrSO4(s)

<u>Step 2</u>: write the full ionic equation with states. Remember to keep molecules intact. Only states (aq) will dissociate,  (s) will not dissociate . This means SrSO4 won't dissociate.

2K+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + Sr 2+(aq) + 2I-(aq) → 2K+(aq) + 2I-(aq) + SrSO4(s)

<u>Step 3</u>: Balanced net ionic equation

Sr 2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → SrSO4(s)

O2- is the Lewis ______ in the following reaction
matrenka [14]

O^{2-} is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)   →  SO_4^{2-}(aq)

<h3>What is lewis base? </h3>

Lewis base is a species that donates an electron pair.

In the above-given chemical equation, the O^{2-}is the lewis base which is donating an electron pair to the central atom of SO_3 to form SO_4^{-2}.

Hence, O^{2-} is the Lewis base in the following reaction:

SO_3(g) + O^{2-}(aq)   →  SO_4^{2-}(aq)

I need all the answers 16-25
vladimir1956 [14]
16. Metals have a structure containing delocalised electrons, meaning they can conduct electricity as they allow movement of charged particles.    17. groups of elements (columns) react in the same way, but depending on whether they group tends to lose or gain electrons the reactivity can increase or decrease when going down the group (column)     18. O2 is non polar as there is no difference in electronegativity between two oxygen atoms (they are the same). CO2 is non polar, it has polar bonds (O is more electronegative than C) but as it is symmetrical there is no polarity in the molecule.     19. Water is polar as the lone pairs on the O repel the delta + H groups so that the HOH angle is around 109deg, so water molecules create polar interactions which each other. These polar interactions require energy to break, so water has a higher boiling point than other small molecules which don't have these interactions.      20. The metal used is tough, and the horseshoe is usually heated meaning the metal will act slightly more viscous (closer to liquid). This means it can be moulded better, and then when its cooled it will become stronger and more brittle.       21. Well N2 + H2 --> NH3, by the haber process, so nitrogen:hydrogen ratio is 1:3. But what they want you to say is that nitrogen has 5 electrons and hydrogen has 1 and you're aiming for eight so you need N (5) + 3 Hs (3*1=3) to make NH3 (8 electrons around N)       22. Na and H, as this reduces the valence shell number and therefore reduces the energy state of the atom       23. Ar, its very stable as its octet is filled, meaning to fill or empty its octet it would have to lose or gain 8 electrons which is extremely hard        24. Oxygen, as it would accept the electrons donated by the 2 Na atoms, and fill its octet while emptying both the Na's     25. N2 and O2 are both covalently bonded, Oxygen forms a double bond to itself like this O=O and nitrogen forms a triple bond to itself like this N<span>≡N </span><span>Hope that helps :) and make sure you learn this, it'll come back and bite you when you need it for a test</span>
