7 0

Answer:

Oxidation of ammonia

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

NH₃ + O₂ → NO + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

4NH₃ + 5O₂ → 4NO + 6H₂O

The given reaction shows the oxidation ammonia. When oxygen react with ammonia it form nitrogen monoxide and water vapors. Nitrogen monoxide decomposes in air.

It can be seen that the given reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass. There are four nitrogen, ten oxygen and twelve hydrogen atoms on both side of equation.

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Chlorine–35 has 17 protons. How many protons and neutrons does the isotope chlorine–36 have? 19 protons and 17 neutrons 17 proto
pochemuha

Answer:

17 protons

19 neutrons

Explanation:

Chlorine will always have the same amount of protons, and that would be 17 protons.

The atomic mass will change according to how many neutrons are present.

Cl - 35 is comprised of 17 protons and 18 neutrons.

We want to find Cl - 36:

We simply add 1 neutron. 18 + 1 = 19 neutrons.

Which is an example of an exothermic process?
Gwar [14]

1) Answer: A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine.

Explanation: Reactions or process in which heat is released(produced) are known as exothermic reactions or process and those in which the heat is absorbed are known as endothermic reactions or process.

If a beaker feels cools when chemical in it react then it means the chemicals have absorbed the heat energy from its surroundings and so it is an example of an endothermic process.

A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine means the energy is released in the chemical reaction and so it is an example of an exothermic process.

Plants use the sun's energy for photosynthesis which is a process of forming food for the plants. Energy acts as a reactant in this process and so it is an example of endothermic process.

Frying an egg by heating it on a stove is an example of an endothermic process as the heat is required to fry the egg.

So, the only exothermic process is the second one, "A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine."

2) In the given equation, heat is written as a product means the heat is released in the equation and so it is an example of an exothermic reaction.

So, the correct choice is the last one " It is exothermic because energy is released."

How does molarity and molality affect the concentration of a solution<br>explain.
kolbaska11 [484]

Concentration of a solution can be expressed in terms of molarity and molality

Molarity is the number of moles of solute in a liter of a solution.

Molarity (M) = Moles of solute/Volume(litres) of solution

Molality is the number of moles of solute in one kg of the solution

Molality (m) = Moles of solute/Mass (kg) of solution

Therefore if the volume or the mass of the solution is changed this would affect the concentration.

In addition, volume is a quantity which depends on temperature. However, mass is independent of temperature. Therefore any changes in temperature, can also bring about a change in the molarity of the solution.
