17. ΔH rxn is the enthalpy of a reaction. It is the amount of energy or heat absorbed in a reaction. If enthalpy is positive, it means the reaction absorbs heat, which means it is endothermic. If the enthalpy is negative, it means the reaction release heat, which means it is exothermic.

18. yes, it is possible in theory but it is not necessary. Water is the ideal, cheaper, and most abundant liquid for a calorimeter.

19. Specific heat= heat/mass*Temp. the mass is already known You can place the piece of metal in a calorimeter filled with water. the piece of metal and water must be at different temperatures. Ideally, you would heat up the water and let it cool down. This change in temperature in the temperature that goes into the formula for the piece of metal. The only missing value is the heat which can be easily calculated because water' specific heat is known which can be used to calculate the heat loss by the water, which is the same as the heat gain by the piece of metal. With all the three values calculated and measured, you can simply plug them into the formula and solve for the specific heat of the metal.

Yakvenalex [24]

The balanced equation is:
$2Na_3N-\ \textgreater \ 6Na + N_2$

Then proceed with the following equations.

$100g Na_3N*(\frac{1molNa_3N}{82.98gNa_3N})*(\frac {6mol Na}{2molNa_3N})*(\frac {22.99gNa}{1molNa})=83.12gNa$

The answer is $83.12gNa$ .

Answer:

8.354 nanometers

Explanation:

To treat a diffusive process in function of time and distance we need to solve 2nd Ficks Law. This a partial differential equation, with certain condition the solution looks like this:

$\frac{C_{s}-C{x}}{C_{s}-C_{o}}=erf(x/2\sqrt{D*t})$
