Why does table salt dissolve more rapidly than rock salt

Sergio [31]

Because in rock salt, the molecules are packed together and they take longer time to separate and dissolve. As for table salt the molecules are less packed together and take less time to dissolve. Think it like this. The more packed or tightly the substance/object is, the longer it will take for the object to dissolve. The less packed the object/substance is the faster it takes to dissolve. Hope this helped :)

Predict whether the following reactions will be exothermic or endothermic.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ exothermic

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) exothermic

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) endothermic

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) exothermic

Explanation:

The question says predict not calculate. So you have to use your chemistry knowledge, experience and intuition.

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ is exothermic because the Haber process gives out energy

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) is exothermic because it is a combustion. The majority, if not all, combustion give out energy.

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) is endothermic because it is the reverse reaction of the combustion of hydrogen. If the reverse reaction is exothermic then the forward reaction is endothermic

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) is exothermic because the backward reaction is endothermic. Atomisation is always an endothermic reaction so the forward reaction is exothermic

If you start with 6 mol of nitrogen gas (N2+) what mass (g) of ammonia (NH4) will be produced?

Yanka [14]

Answer:

204g of NH3

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

Next, we shall determine the number of mole NH3 produced by reacting 6moles of N2. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of N2 reacted to produce 2 moles of NH3.

Therefore, 6 moles of N2 will react to produce = 6 x 2 = 12 moles of NH3.

Finally, we shall convert 12 moles of NH3 to grams. This is illustrated below:

Number of mole of NH3 = 12 moles.

Molar mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 17g/mol

Mass of NH3 =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of NH3 = 12 x 17

Mass of NH3 = 204g.

Therefore, 204g of NH3 will be produced from the reaction.

From this list, select the element that forms π bonds most readily. from this list, select the element that forms bonds most rea

Finger [1]

Nonmetals which are located in the second row form pi bonds more easily than the elements situated in the third row and below. Actually there are no compounds or molecules known that forms covalent bonds to the noble gas Ne and Ar. Hence the other second row element which is Carbon, is the element that forms pi bonds most readily.

Calculate the amount of ATP in kg that is turned over by a resting human every 24 hours. Assume that a typical human contains ~5

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 66.35 kilograms.

Explanation:

Based on the data given in the question, the energy consumed by the body of a human being is 50%. Based on the given data, the energy consumed in a day is 8000 kJ, 50 percent is the energy transfer efficiency. Thus, the consumption of total energy is 4000 kJ, and for the transformation of ADP to ATP, the energy involved is 30.6 kJ per mole.

Hence, the total ATP produced in the process is,

ATP = 4000 kJ / 30.6 kJ/mol

= 130.7189 mol.

Thus, with the energy transfer efficiency of 50 percent, the total moles of ATP produced is 130.7 mol.

The mass of ATP can be calculated by using the formula,

moles = mass/molecular mass

The molecular mass of ATP is 507.18 g per mol

Now by putting the values we get,

mass of ATP = 130.7189 mol * 507.18 g/mol

= 66298.011 g or 66.298 kg

It is mentioned that human comprise 50 g of ATP or 0.05 kg of ATP. Therefore, the sum of the available ATP will be.

= Total production of ATP + Total ATP available

= 66.298 kg + 0.05 kg

= 66.348 kg

Hence, the sum of the ATP that is turned over by a resting human in a day is 66.35 kg.
