Answer:
The cooler water is denser
Explanation:
Convection drives the boiling of water placed on a stove in a kettle.
During convection, heat is circulated by density differences in portions of a fluid.
Convection is a form of heat transfer in fluids especially gas and liquid.
- In boiling water, the heat is supplied to the base of the stove.
- The water at the bottom on heat becomes lighter as the molecules gain more kinetic energy.
- The colder part of the water on top sinks to replace the less dense on below.
- This exchange sets up convection cells in the kettle.
Answer:
Chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. These processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions.

Answer:
ΔH = -470.4kJ
Explanation:
It is possible to sum 2 or more reactions to obtain the ΔH of the reaction you want to study (Hess's law). Using the reactions:
1. CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) → C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ
2. 6C2H2(g) + 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) → 5CH2CHCO2H(g)ΔH = 132kJ
6 times the reaction 1.
6CaC2(s) + 12H2O(l) → 6C2H2(g) + 6Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ*6 = -2484kJ
This reaction + 2:
6CaC2(s) + 3CO2(g) + 16H2O(l) → + 6Ca(OH)2(s) + 5CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2484kJ + 132kJ = -2352kJ
As we want to calculate the net change enthalpy in the formation of just 1 mole of acrylic acid we need to divide this last reaction in 5:
6/5CaC2(s) + 3/5CO2(g) + 16/5H2O(l) → + 6/5Ca(OH)2(s) + CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2352kJ / 5
<h3>ΔH = -470.4kJ</h3>
