The accepted concentration of chlorine is 1.00 ppm that is 1 gram of chlorine per million of water.
The volume of water is .
Since, 1 gal= 3785.41 mL
Thus,
Density of water is 1 g/mL thus, mass of water will be .
Since, 1 grams of chlorine → grams of water.
1 g of water → g of chlorine and,
of water →86.6 g of chlorine
Since, the solution is 9% chlorine by mass, the volume of solution will be:
Thus, volume of chlorine solution is 9.62\times 10^{2} mL.
Answer: The reaction is exothermic reaction as the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.
Explanation: Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Labeling of the parts in the diagram:
A represents the activation energy which is the energy required by reactants to cross the energy barrier to get converted to products.
E represents the potential energy of the reactants.
B represents the activated complex.
D represents the potential energy of the products.
C represents the total enthalpy change of the reaction, which comes out to be negative for exothermic reactions.
The ionic compounds on dissolving in aqueous solution dissociate into their respective ions that are cations and anions.
The ions present in the aqueous solution of are
and
.
So, the chemical formula of the cation present in the aqueous solution of is
.
