Answer:
Explanation:
You calculate the energy required to break all the bonds in the reactants.
Then you subtract the energy needed to break all the bonds in the products.
2H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2H-O-H
Bonds: 2H-H 1O=O 4H-O
D/kJ·mol⁻¹: 436 498 464
Answer:

Explanation:
The idea here is that the problem is providing you with the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a given sample of water from an initial temperature to its boiling point, i.e. to 100
Answer:
5 electron groups, see saw
Explanation:
During the formation of SF4, the sulfur atom usually bonds with each of four fluorine atoms where 8 of valence electrons are used. The four fluorine atoms have 3 lone pairs of electrons in its octet which will further utilize 24 valence electrons. In addition, two electrons are present as a lone pair on the sulfur atom. We can determine sulfur’s hybridization state by counting of the number of regions of electron density on sulphur (the central atom in the molecule). When bonding takes place there is a formation of 4 single bonds to sulfur and it has 1 lone pair. Looking at this, we can say that the number of regions of electron density is 5. The hybridization state is sp3d.
SF4 molecular geometry is seesaw with one pair of valence electrons. The molecule is polar. The equatorial fluorine atoms have 102° bond angles instead of the actual 120° angle. The axial fluorine atom angle is 173° instead of the actual 180° bond angle.
The answer is (4) at the cathode, where reduction occurs. The Na+ gains one electron and become Na(l). So the reaction occurs at cathode and is reduction reaction.
