Which of the following processes is exothermic?

Chemistry

Elodia [21]3 years ago

Answer:

a. The reaction associated with DHºf for an ionic compound

Explanation:

An exothermic process is a process that loses heat for the surroundings, so the temperature of the system must decrease, and ΔH must be negative.

DHºf or ΔHºf of an ionic compound is always negative because the final energy is always lower than the initial. It happens because of the stability of the bond, the system wants a lower energy state to be stable.

The ionization of a lithium atom occurs with the gain of energy, which is given to the electron, so it may give off the atom. So it's an endothermic process.

To change the state of a solid to a gas (sublimation), the compound must gain heat, its temperature must increase, so it's always an endothermic process.

To break a covalent bond it's necessary the gain of energy, so it's an endothermic process.

Answer:A

Explanation:

The enthalpy change of formation for an ionic compound is calculated from the Born-Haber cycle. Using the Hess law of constant heat summation. The result is always negative (exothermic) because energy is given out when the new lattice is formed.

The carbon-14 content of a wooden harpoon handle found in an Inuit archaeological site was found to be 61.9% of the carbon-14 co
astraxan [27]

Answer:

3,964 years.

Explanation:

  • It is known that the decay of a radioactive isotope isotope obeys first order kinetics.
  • Half-life time is the time needed for the reactants to be in its half concentration.
  • If reactant has initial concentration [A₀], after half-life time its concentration will be ([A₀]/2).
  • Also, it is clear that in first order decay the half-life time is independent of the initial concentration.

  • The half-life of the element is 5,730 years.

  • For, first order reactions:

<em>k = ln(2)/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).</em>

Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.

t1/2 is the half-life of the reaction.

∴ k =0.693/(t1/2) = 0.693/(5,730 years) = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

  • Also, we have the integral law of first order reaction:

<em>kt = ln([A₀]/[A]),</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).

t is the time of the reaction (t = ??? year).

[A₀] is the initial concentration of the sample ([A₀] = 100%).

[A] is the remaining concentration of the sample ([A] = 61.9%).

∴ t = (1/k) ln([A₀]/[A]) = (1/1.21 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹) ln(100%/61.9%) = 3,964 years.

Chloroform is a liquid once used for anesthetic. What is the volume of 5.0 g of chloroform? The density of chloroform 1.49 g/mL
mario62 [17]

Answer:

3.3557047 mL

Explanation:

The density can be found using the following formula:

d=\frac{m}{v}

Let's rearrange the formula to find the volume, v.

d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v

d*v=m

\frac{d*v}{d} =\frac{m}{d}

v=\frac{m}{d}

The volume can be found by dividing the mass by the density. The mass of the chloroform is 5 grams and the density is 1.49 grams per milliliter. Therefore,

m= 5g \\d= 1.49 g/mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{5g}{1.49 g/mL}

Divide. When we divide, the grams, or g, in the numerator and denominator will cancel out.

v= \frac{5}{1.49}mL

v=3.3557047 mL

The volume of 5 grams of chloroform is 3.3557047 milliliters

A chemist determines by measurements that 0.030 moles of nitrogen gas participate in a chemical reaction. calculate the mass of
zzz [600]
Remember that: 
number of moles = mass/molar mass

First, we get the molar mass of the nitrogen gas molecule:
It is known the the nitrogen gas is composed of two nitrogen atoms, each with molar mass 14 gm (from the periodic table)
Therefore, molar mass of nitrogen gas = 14 x 2 = 28 gm

Second we calculate the mass of the precipitate:
we have number of moles = 0.03 moles (given)
and molar mass = 28 gm (calculated)
Using the equation mentioned before,
mass = number of moles x molar mass = 0.03 x 28 = 0.84 gm

Fed [463]

The balanced equation would be Zn + Cu^{2+} ---- > Cu + Zn^{2+}

<h3>Electrochemical equations</h3>

Zn reacts with Cu solution according to the following equation:

Zn + Cu^{2+} ---- > Cu + Zn^{2+}

In the reaction, Cu^{2+} is reduced according to the following: Cu^{2+} + 2 e^- -- > Cu

While Zn is oxidized according to the following: Zn - 2e^- --- > Zn^{2+}

Thus, giving the overall equation of; Zn + Cu^{2+} ---- > Cu + Zn^{2+}
