The net amount of energy produced can be obtained from a table of enthalpy change of formation, available online.
The enthalpy change of formation indicate how much energy the 1 mole of the product (H2O) has relative to the elemental reactants (H2 and O2). In other words, the "lost" energy equals the heat/energy released.
For water (H2O), this value is -285.8 if the final product is a liquid under standard conditions, and -241.82 if the product is in gas form which contains some energy that could be further released. This means that if the final product (H2O) is in liquid form, energy released is 285.8 kJ/mol.
Since water is in liquid form under standard conditions, the first value (285.8 kJ/mol) is generally appropriate.
Answer: (2) decreasing the concentration of HCl(aq) to 0.1 M
Explanation: Rate of a reaction depends on following factors:
1. Size of the solute particles: If the reactant molecules are present in smaller size, surface of particles and decreasing the size increases the surface area of the solute particles. Hence, increasing the rate of a reaction.
2. Reactant concentration: The rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of reactants.
3. Temperature: Increasing the temperature increases the energy of the molecules and thus more molecules can react to give products and rate increases.
(1) Increasing the initial temperature to 25°C will increase the reaction rate.
(2) Decreasing the concentration of HCl(aq) to 0.1 M will decrease the reaction rate due to lesser concentration.
(3) Using 1.2 g of powdered Mg will increase the reaction rate due to large surface area.
(4) Using 2.4 g of Mg ribbon will increase the reaction rate due to high concentration of reactants.
Answer:
Fluid power systems perform work by a pressurized fluid bearing directly on a piston in a cylinder or in a fluid motor. A fluid cylinder produces a force resulting in linear motion, whereas a fluid motor produces torque resulting in rotary motion. Within a fluid power system, cylinders and motors (also called actuators) do the desired work. Control components such as valves regulate the system.
Answer: The statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.
Explanation:
A chemical reaction rate is affected by the several factors few of which are temperature, concentration of reactants, surface area etc.
In a chemical reaction, if temperature is increased then the rate of reaction will increase because it will increase the average kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. Thus, large number of molecules will have minimum energy required for an effective collision.
It is known that increasing the amount of reactants will increase the rate of reaction.
Therefore, rate of reaction will change if concentration or temperature is changed.
Hence, the statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.
