A reaction is exothermic if Δ<em>H</em> (or
in some textbooks) is negative:
- H₂ + Br → 2 HBr, ΔH < 0.
- CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O, ΔH < 0.
A reaction is endothermic if Δ<em>H</em> is positive:
- 2 NH₃ → N₂ + 3 H₂, ΔH > 0.
- 2 HCl → H₂ + Cl₂ ΔH > 0.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
The enthalpy of a system is the sum of its internal energy. ΔH < 0 indicates that the reactants lose internal energy in the reaction. Energy conserves, and those internal energies must have converted to some other form of energy. They typically end up as thermal energy. The reaction will release heat since it is exothermic.
Similarly, ΔH > 0 indicates that the reactants gains internal energy in the reaction. Energy conserves. As a result, the reaction must have gained energy from its surroundings. The reaction will be endothermic since it absorbs heat.
Answer:
(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O (M = 286).
Explanation:
- The depression in freezing point of water by adding a solute is determined using the relation:
<em>ΔTf = i.Kf.m,</em>
Where, ΔTf is the depression in freezing point of water.
i is van't Hoff factor.
Kf is the molal depression constant.
m is the molality of the solute.
- Since, Kf and m is constant for all the mentioned salts. So, the depression in freezing point depends strongly on the van't Hoff factor (i).
- van't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass.
(A) CuSO₄•5H₂O:
CuSO₄ is dissociated to Cu⁺² and SO₄²⁻.
So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.
B) NiSO₄•6H₂O:
NiSO₄ is dissociated to Ni⁺² and SO₄²⁻.
So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.
(C) MgSO₄•7H₂O:
MgSO₄ is dissociated to Mg⁺² and SO₄²⁻.
So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 2/1 = 2.
(D) Na₂SO₄•10H₂O:
Na₂SO₄ is dissociated to 2 Na⁺ and SO₄²⁻.
So, i = dissociated ions/no. of particles = 3/1 = 3.
∴ The salt with the high (i) value is Na₂SO₄•10H₂O.
So, the highest ΔTf resulted by adding Na₂SO₄•10H₂O salt.
Answer:
C and D

It is right because i did a quiz and i got c and d right hope this helps:)

Which statement best describes how biodiversity supports the sustainability of an ecosystem.
biodiversity allows laws to be passed in order to protect species
biodiversity prevents habitats from being destroyed by people.
maintaining diversity allows species to use up the resources in an ecosystem .
maintaining diversity ensures that species to use up the resource in an ecosystem.
maintaining diversity ensures that species can continue to depend on one another

As mentioned, this is a trial-and-error process. I typed in the Avogadro's number 6.022×10²³ then added the largest number I could think of. Since infinity can be thought of as 99999...(and so on), I thought that the number should all be composed of 9. As I add 9 after one another, I ended with about 10 quadrillion before the display changed to 6.022000001×10²³. Therefore, the largest number is: 9,999,999,999,999,999.
