The reaction between zinc and silver nitrate is
Moles of Zn = m /M = 599 /65 = 9.2 mol
Moles of AgNO3 = m /M = 1500 /169 = 8.87 mol
Silver nitrate is reacting completely to give silver
Thus, moles of Silver nitrate is equivalent to silver = 8.87
For mass of silver produced
m /M = 8.87 = m /107
m = 949.24 g
Hence, the given quantity of reactants are sufficient to produce 800 g of silver as the amount of silver produced is 949.24 g
A solution is the answer to a problem
An element is a substance made from only one type of atom (e.g. oxygen is an element made up of only oxygen atoms).
An atom is the simplest form of an element that can exist, such as a lithium atom (Li).
Atoms of different elements can be combined together to create compounds, e.g sodium oxide (Na2O).
A molecule is a combination of 2 or more atoms that form chemical bonds. When these atoms are of the same element, they can be called molecules (e.g. O3 - ozone).
However when a molecule is made up of atoms of different elements, they are classified as compounds (e.g. CO2 - carbon dioxide).
So all compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds.

Answer: an ice pack getting cold (due to ammonium nitrate dissolving in water inside the pack)
Explanation:
Endothermic reactions: These are the reactions in which energy is required in the reaction. The energy of the products are more than the energy of the reactants.
Exothermic reactions: These are the reactions in which energy is released in the reaction. The energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants.
a) water droplets condensing on a soda can on a hot summer day : As the gaseous molecules are changing into liquid phase, energy is released and is exothermic
b) an ice pack getting cold (due to ammonium nitrate dissolving in water inside the pack) : As the temperature is decreasing , energy is absorbed by the surroundings and thus is endothermic
c) thermite reaction between iron(III) oxide and aluminium (spectacular flames are observed) : As flames are produced, the energy is released and thus is exothermic
d) freezing water to make ice cubes : As the liquid molecules are changing into solid phase, energy is released and is exothermic
