An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy.

_____________________________

A chemical reaction in which heat is released is called exothermic reaction.

For example

CaO(s) + H2O(l) --> Ca(OH)2 (aq) + Heat

As we know that if energy needed in the bond breaking in the reactants is less than the energy released when new bonds are formed resulting in the products, the chemical reaction is of exothermic in nature.

How many grams of oxygen gas (02) are needed to completely react with 9.30 moles
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

223 g O₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of oxygen gas needed, you need to (1) convert moles Al to moles O₂ (via the mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients) and then (2) convert moles O₂ to grams O₂ (via the molar mass). When writing your ratios/conversions, the desired unit should be in the numerator in order to allow for the cancellation of the previous unit. The final answer should have 3 sig figs because the given value (9.30 moles) has 3 sig figs.

4 Al + 3 O₂ ----> 2 Al₂O₃
^         ^

Molar Mass (O₂): 32.0 g/mol

9.3 moles Al          3 moles O₂              32.0 g
-------------------  x  ---------------------  x  --------------------  =  223 g O₂
                              4 moles Al               1 mole

The piece of iron that miguel measured had a mass of 51.1 g and a volume of 6.63 cm 3 . what did miguel calculate to be the dens
likoan [24]
Given:
Mass, m = 51.1 g
Volume, V = 6.63 cm³

By definition, 
Density = Mass/Volume
              = (51.1 g)/(6.63 cm³)
              = 7.7074 g/cm³

In SI units,
Density = (7.7074 g/cm³)*(10⁻³ kg/g)*(10² cm/m)³
              = 7707.4 kg/m³

Answer: 7.707 g/cm³ or 7707.4 kg/m³

if you want to see how the water molecules are split inside the thylakoid space, how many membranes would you have to cross to g
Feliz [49]

Answer:

4 biological membranes.

Explanation:

So in total, your water molecule has to go through your cell membrane, reach the outer membrane of your chloroplast and then through the inner membrane, and then lastly, it has to go through your thylakoid membrane to reach its final destination of the illumine. So in total 4 biological membranes.
