Answer: B. South

Explanation:

An electric field can be defined as the amount of electric force per unit charge. The direction of the electric field can be determined by the motion of a positive test charge under the electric force.

The direction of electric field is radially outward for a positive charge and radially inward for a negative charge. Thus, for the electric field points toward SOUTH at a position directly south of a positive charge.

So option )D is the answer sense it is pointing directly at the negative charge!

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$\delta H_{rxn} = -66.0 \ kJ/mole$

Explanation:

Given that:

$3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (1) \\ \\ \\ Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +3CO_{(g)} \to 2FE_{(s)} + 3CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -25.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (2) \\ \\ \\ Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + CO_{(g)} \to 3FeO_{(s)} + CO_{2(g)} \ \delta H = 19.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (3)$

From equation (3) , multiplying (-1) with equation (3) and interchanging reactant with the product side; we have:

$3FeO_{(s)} + CO_{2(g)} \to Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -19.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (4)$

Multiplying (2) with equation (4) ; we have:

$6FeO_{(s)} + 2CO_{2(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + 2CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -38.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (5)$

From equation (1) ; multiplying (-1) with equation (1); we have:

$2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \to 3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \ \ \delta H = 47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (6)$

From equation (2); multiplying (3) with equation (2); we have:

$3 Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +9CO_{(g)} \to 6FE_{(s)} + 9CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -75.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (7)$

Now; Adding up equation (5), (6) & (7) ; we get:

$6FeO_{(s)} + 2CO_{2(g)} \to 2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} + 2CO_{(g)} \ \delta H = -38.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (5)$

$2Fe_3O_4_{(s)} +CO_{2(g)} \to 3FeO_3_{(s)}+CO_{(g)} \ \ \delta H = 47.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (6)$

$3 Fe_2O_3_{(s)} +9CO_{(g)} \to 6FE_{(s)} + 9CO_{2(g)} \ \ \delta H = -75.0 \ kJ/mole -- equation (7)$

$FeO \ \ \ + \ \ \ CO \ \ \to \ \ \ \ Fe_{(s)} + \ \ CO_{2(g)} \ \ \ \delta H = - 66.0 \ kJ/mole$

$\delta H_{rxn} = \delta H_1 + \delta H_2 + \delta H_3$ (According to Hess Law)

$\delta H_{rxn} = (-38.0 + 47.0 + (-75.0)) \ kJ/mole$

$\delta H_{rxn} = -66.0 \ kJ/mole$

Which of the following are examples of plasma?

artcher [175]

The answers are "tails of comets, the ionosphere, and a neon sign." or options A, D, and E. Tails of comments are mainly made of plasma. Ice cubes are examples of a solid. A gas fire key word gas is example of a gas. The ionosphere is also mainly made of plasma. A neon sign uses plasma in order to work. A flashlight uses a light bulb which isn't a example of plasma therefore thats a no.

Hope this helps!

A sample of 250 g of water are heated from 40°C to 121°C, calculate the amount of heat energy absorbed.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

the anwser isn't in the choices

Explanation:

H=MC(change of temp.)

M=mass of water=250g

C=specific heat of water = 4.186 j/g

change in temperature is 121-40= 81

H= 250x4.186x81=84766.5J

Which is the correctly balanced chemical equation for the reaction of KOH and H2SO4?

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

3) 2KOH + H2SO4 → K2SO4 + 2H2O

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of KOH and H2SO4 is,

→ 2KOH + H2SO4 → K2SO4 + 2H2O

Hence, option (3) is the correct answer.
