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.

When circumstances are right, most materials undergo a process called thermal expansion. Which statement best describes the caus
harina [27]

Answer: Matter is heated, and its particles spread out more

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when there's an expansion of an object or material or when an object becomes bigger because of a rise in its temperature. This brings about the faster movement of the heated molecules and the atoms spreading out.

Therefore, the cause and effect of thermal expansion will be that when matter is heated, and its particles spread out more.

Use the kinetic energy equation to explain why speed has a greater impact on kinetic energy than mass.​
Lerok [7]

Answer: <em>Hopefully this helps! sorry if not. :))</em>

<em></em>

<em>Speed has a greater impact on mass because its increases in velocity have an exponentially greater impact on translational kinetic energy because kinetic energy is proportional to velocity squared. Doubling an object's mass would only double its kinetic energy, however doubling its momentum would quadruple its velocity.</em>

erastova [34]

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic

The temperature of the water bath goes up

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one in which energy flows out of the reaction system.

In this case, the system is the reaction vessel while the surrounding is the water bath. We see in the question that 300.1J of heat flows out of the system during the reaction. This is heat lost to the surroundings showing that the reaction is exothermic.

As energy is lost to the surroundings, the temperature of the water bath rises accordingly.
