If hydrogen were used as a fuel, it could be burned according to the following reaction: H2(g)+1/2O2(g)→H2O(g). Use average bond

energies to calculate ΔHrxn for this reaction Use average bond energies to calculate ΔHrxn for the combustion of methane (CH4). Which fuel yields more energy per mole and per gram?

The deltaHrxn = -243 kJ/mol the deltaHrxn of CH4(methane) = -802 kJ/mol 

The fuel that yields more energy per mole is METHANE. The negative sign merely signifies the release of energy. Thus, 802 kJ/mol is greater than 243 kJ/mol.

The fuel that yields more energy per gram is HYDROGEN. Here is the computation:
deltaHrxn = (-243 kJ/mol)(1 mol/2.016 g H2)  <span>= -120.535714286 kJ/g or -121 kJ/g

</span>deltaHrxn of CH4(methane) = (-802 kJ/mol)(1 mol/16.04 g) 
<span>= -50 kJ/g 
</span>
As discussed the negative sign serves as the symbol of released energy. Thus, 121 is greater than 50.

Lewis structure for CH3CL
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The first step in forming the ch3cl lewis structure is drawing out all the atoms that exist within the molecule or ion being studied. Then, each atom must have its atomic number written above it. After this, draw lines between every bonded pair of non-identical electrons on adjacent atoms (bonded pairs are called “bonds”).

Comparing the mass of the nucleus with the mass of the protons and the mass of the neutrons refers to what?
DaniilM [7]
E) mass defect 
This is so because the mass defect is the difference between the particles of the nucleous weight and the nucleous itself. According to the equation E=mc^2, the mass defect is related the the binding theory. In order to calculate the mass defect of an atom you need to add up the masses of each proton and each of neutron that are present in the nucleus and then you substract the actual mass of the nucleus from the combined mass.

A sample of aluminum metal absorbs 10.3 j of heat, upon which the temperature of the sample increases from 23.2 °c to 30.5 °c. s
stira [4]
<span>1.6 g First, calculate the change in temperature. 30.5 - 23.2 = 7.3 K Now we have 3 pieces of data, the units involved are K, J/(g K), and J. We wish to create a result with the units being g. Let's start with the specific heat. 0.90 J/(g K) Now let's cancel out the K by multiplying by our data with K 0.90 J/(g K) * 7.3 K = 6.57 J/g Now we want to cancel out the J and get g on top. We can do that by dividing the J value we have by the calculated value above. So 10.3 J / 6.57 J/g = 1.567732116 g Rounding to 2 significant figures gives us a mass of 1.6 g Remember, for most problems, simply look at the units you have and what you desire for the units in the final result. By paying attention to this, the math operations you need are pretty automatic.</span>
