Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A. 1

Explanation:

Unbalanced chemical reaction

                      Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  MgO

               Reactants    Elements    Products

                       1            Magnesium       1

                       2           Oxygen              1

Balanced chemical reaction

                      2Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  2MgO

              Reactants    Elements    Products

                       2           Magnesium       2

                       2           Oxygen             2

Conclusion

The coefficients of the balanced equation are 2, 1, 2

Answer:

The coefficient for oxygen, in this equation is 1

Explanation:

Step 1: The unbalanced equation

2Mg + O2 → MgO

Step 2: Balancing the equation

2Mg + O2 → MgO

On the left side we have 2x Mg, on the right side we have 1x Mg(in MgO).

To balance the amount of Mg we have to multiply MgO by 2.

Now the amount of O is on both sides also equal.

The equation is balanced.

2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

The coefficient for oxygen, in this equation is 1

A pan containing 20.0 grams of water was allowed to cool from a temperature of 95.0 °C. If the amount of heat released is 1,200
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

81°C.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the relation:

<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>

where, Q is the amount of heat released from water (Q = - 1200 J).

m is the mass of the water (m = 20.0 g).

c is the specific heat capacity of water (c of water = 4.186 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = final T - 95.0°C).

∵ Q = m.c.ΔT

∴ (- 1200 J) = (20.0 g)(4.186 J/g.°C)(final T - 95.0°C ).

(- 1200 J) = 83.72 final T - 7953.

∴ final T = (- 1200 J + 7953)/83.72 = 80.67°C ≅ 81.0°C.

<em>So, the right choice is: 81°C.</em>

If the products of a certain reaction are favored (i.e., the ΔG value of the reaction is negative), one would expect a significa
Over [174]

Answer:

positive H and negative S

Explanation:

For a reaction to be spontaneous, the absolute best combination is a negative Delta H and a positive Delta S. When they are both positive, the reaction is only spontaneous at higher temperatures. When they are both negative, the reaction is only spontaneous at lower temperatures. and again if a catalyst is added to the reaction, the activation energy is lowered because a lower-energy transition state is formed. The catalyst does not affect the energy of the reactants or products (and thus does not affect ΔG).

So from these discussions

Ea does not affect G value at all (whether +Ea or -Ea).

And for product to be formed the reaction should be spontaneous, where H is negative and S positive else the reaction will yield low product.
