Answer : Hess's law uses the intermediate reactions to calculate the enthalpy by the law of Constant Heat Summation which states that regardless of the multiple stages occurring in the reaction, the total enthalpy change for the reaction is the sum of all changes.

This law was a manifestation that enthalpy is a state function i.e it is irrespective of the path followed to reach the final state.

The application of Hess’s law, uses the standard heats of formation of the reactants and products to indirectly calculate the heat of reaction (enthalpy) for any reaction that occurs at standard conditions.

An enthalpy change which occurs specifically under standard conditions is called the standard enthalpy of reaction and is given the symbol ΔH°.

The standard heat of reaction can be calculated by using the given equation., i.e.;

ΔH° = Σn ΔH°f(products)−ΣnΔH°f(reactants)

Here, Σ represents “the sum of”

The standard heat of reaction is equal to the sum of all the standard heats of formation of the products subtracted by the sum of all the standard heats of formation of the reactants.

The letter “n” represents that each heat of formation must first be multiplied by its coefficient in the balanced equation.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

6 different frequencies

Explanation:

From energy level 1 to 2 is one frequency, from energy level 1 to 3 is one frequency and From energy level 1 to 4 is one frequency. So, we have a total of 3 frequencies for transition from energy level 1.

From energy level 2 to 3 is one frequency and from energy level 2 to 4 is one frequency. So, we have a total of 2 frequencies for transition from energy level 2.

From energy level 3 to 4 is one frequency.

So we have a total of 3 + 2 + 1 different frequencies = 6 different frequencies.

Note that the reverse process for each step produces the same frequency as the step in consideration.

There are three isotopes of X element (X):
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 17.5 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

X-17 isotope = atomic mass17.2 amu, abundance:78.99%

X-18isotope =  atomic mass 18.1 amu, abundance 10.00%

X-19isotope = atomic mass:19.1 amu, abundance: 11.01%

Average atomic mass of X = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass  = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) + (abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass  = (78.99×17.2)+(10.00×18.1) +(11.01+ 19.1) /100

Average atomic mass =  1358.628 + 181 +210.291 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 1749.919 / 100

Average atomic mass = 17.5 amu.

why is it harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon? to put it another way, why are the outermost electrons of
Verizon [17]

It is harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon because the size of the nuclear charge in fluorine is larger than that of carbon.

The energy required to remove an electron from an atom is called ionization energy.

The ionization energy largely depends on the size of the nuclear charge. The larger the size of the nuclear charge, the higher the ionization energy because it will be more difficult to remove an electron from the atom owing to increased electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electrons.

Since fluorine has a higher size of the nuclear charge than carbon. More energy is required to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon leading to the observation that;  it is harder to remove an electron from fluorine than from carbon.
