Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants increases by 215. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, w

hich is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that -155. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction.
Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

1. The change in energy is 60KJ or 6.0 × 10^1 KJ

2. Endothermic reaction

Explanation:

The Enthalpy (ΔU) for the mixture is given as 215kJ and the workdone (W) on the mixture is - 155KJ. Hence, the change in the energy (ΔH) ofthe mixture is computed using the equation below:

ΔH = ΔU + w

Where,

ΔH= Change in energy

ΔU= Enthalpy change

W= workdone

Therefore ΔH is:

ΔH= 215 kJ + (-155Kj)

ΔH= 60 KJ

Therefore, the change in energy is 60KJ or 6.0 × 10^1 KJ

The value is positive so it is an endothermic reaction.

An endothermic reaction happens when the energy used to break the bonds in the reactants is higher than the energy given out when bonds are formed in the products. This means that the entire reaction takes in energy, hence there is a temperature decrease in the surroundings. Endothermic reactions cannot happen spontaneously. Work is usually done in order to get these reactions to occur. When endothermic reactions absorb energy, a temperature drop is measured by the reaction.

What are 5 physical changes in matter
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

cutting, bending, dissolving, freezing, and boiling

Explanation:

A physical change is a change in one or more physical properties of matter without any change in chemical properties. In other words, matter doesn't change into a different substance in a physical change. Examples of physical change include but are not limited to, from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas are also physical changes.

29.47 mL of a solution of the acid HBr is titrated, and 72.90 mL of 0.2500-M NaOH is required to reach the equivalence point. Ca
Klio2033 [76]

The original concentration of the acid solution is 6.175 \times 10^-4 mol / L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Concentration is the ratio of solute in a solution to either solvent or total solution. It is expressed in terms of mass per unit volume

                        HBr + NaOH -----> NaBr + H2O

There is a 1:1 equivalence with acid and base.

Moles of NaOH = 72.90 \times 10^-3 \times 0.25

                          = 0.0182 mol.

[ HBr ] = moles of base / volume of a solution

          = 0.0182 / 29.47

          = 6.175 \times 10^-4 mol / L.

explain how both hydrogen and carbon have achieved stability by bonding with each other to form methane ​
Naya [18.7K]

A carbon iota can bond with four other iotas and is just like the four-hole wheel, whereas an oxygen iota, which can bond only to two, is just like the two-hole wheel.
