Chemistry
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer : The correct answer is A. Nuclear reactors using Pu-239

B. burning coal

The sources which are not renewable are known as "non- renewable sources of energy .

Non - renewable sources are those which get expired after rapid use and can never be reproduced . These sources replenishes in very long time . Examples : Coal , petrol or fuels etc .

1) Nuclear reactors using Pu-239 : Nuclear reactors uses radioactive elements like uranium , plutonium etc , which are present in limit . after frequent use of these elements , they will vanish off , Hence we can say nuclear reactors are Non renewable source of energy .

2) Burning coal : Coal is used as one of the major source of fuel . On rapid utilization of coal they will finished from earth . It takes thousand of year for formation of coal . Hence , it is a Non -renewable source .

3) Photo-voltaic cell: These are cells which used solar energy . Solar energy is obtained from sun . Hence solar energy is renewable source of energy so is the photo voltaic cell .

4) Geothermal energy : Geothermal energy is source of energy that is extracted from earth's thermal energy . Since thermal energy of earth is present in very large amount and can be reproduced , hence it renewable source of energy .

5)Wind energy : Wind energy is source of energy that is obtained from wind. And wind is renewable source so the wine energy too .

Consequently , we can say only two of them " Nuclear reactors and burning of coal " are Non renewable force of energy .

Use bond energies from Table 10.3 in the textbook to estimate the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the following reaction. C2H2(g)+H2(g)
Digiron [165]

Answer: =176.6kJmol^{-1}

Explanation:Bond energy of H-H is 436.4 kJ/mole

Bond energy of  C-H is 414 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C=C is 620 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C≡C is 835 kJ/mol

\Delta H= {\text {sum of bond energies of reactants}}-  {\text {sum of bond energies of products}}

\Delta H= {1B.E(C≡C)+2B.E(C-H) +1B.E(H-H)} - {1B.E(C=C)+4B.E(C-H)}

\Delta H= {1B.E(835kJmole^{-1})+2B.E(414kJmole^{-1}) +1B.E(436.4kJmole^{-1})} -  {1B.E(620kJmole^{-1})+4B.E(414kjmole^{-1})}

=176.6kJmol^{-1}
