Answer:

Most common metals like aluminum, copper, and iron are denser than wood. The atoms that makeup metals are generally heavier than the atoms in plastic and wood and they are packed closer together.

Which of these reactions can be classified as double replacement reactions?

Kryger [21]

1) Zn + 2 HCl = ZnCl2 + H2 ( single replacement )

2) 2 NaCl + F2 = 2 NaF + Cl2 ( single replacement )

3) 2 AlBr3 + 3 K2SO4 = 6 KBr + Al2(SO4)3 ( double replacement )

FOR 100 PTS

lozanna [386]

Answer:

B.) A hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense and sinks.

Explanation:

Convention is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

After standardizing a NaOH solution, you use it to titrate an HCl solution known to have a concentration of 0.203 M. You perform

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

0.203 is the mean of the concentration of the HCl solution

Explanation:

You have 5 concentrations. The most appropiate result is the mean of those results. The mean is a statistical defined as the sum of each result divided by the total amount of results. For the results of the problem, the mean is:

0.210 + 0.204 + 0.201 + 0.202 + 0.197 = 1.014 / 5 =

<h3>0.203 is the mean of the concentration of the HCl solution</h3>

An endergonic reaction with a Δh and Δs can be changed into an exergonic reaction.

zheka24 [161]

Full question:

This question is incomplete, here it is completed:

An endergonic reaction with a ______ ∆H and a ______ ∆S can be changed into an exergonic reaction by decreasing the temperature.

Option A: negative, positive

Option B: negative, negative

Option C: positive, positive

Option D: positive, negative

Answer:

Option B: negative, negative

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) of a system for a constant-temperature process is

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

free energy is the energy available to do work. Thus, if a particular reaction is accompanied by a release of usable energy (that is, ΔG is negative), it is said to be exergonic. On the other hand, if a reaction consumes energy (that is, ΔG is positive), it is said to be endergonic.

Looking at the equation, we can see that if ΔH is negative and ΔS is negative, then ΔG will be negative only when TΔS is smaller in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is small.

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

- -

This means that the reaction proceeds spontaneously at low temperatures. At high temperatures, the reverse reaction becomes spontaneous. An example of that would be the following reaction:

NH₃(g) + HCl(g) → NH₄Cl(s)

If the reactants have a potential energy of 10.2 kJ/mol and the products have a potential

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The ΔH is 5.5 kJ/mol and the reaction is endothermic.

Explanation:

To calculate the ∆H (heat of reaction) of the combustion reaction, that is, the heat that accompanies the entire reaction, you must make the total sum of all the heats of the products and of the reagents affected by their stoichiometric coefficient ( number of molecules of each compound participating in the reaction) and finally subtract them:

Combustion enthalpy = ΔH = ∑H products - ∑Hreactants

In this case:

ΔH = 15.7 kJ/mol - 10.2 kJ/mol= 5.5 kJ/mol

An endothermic reaction is one whose enthalpy value is positive, that is, the system absorbs heat from the environment (ΔH> 0).

The ΔH is 5.5 kJ/mol and the reaction is endothermic.
