What does the oxidizing agent do in a redox reaction?

1. (8pt) Using dimensional analysis convert 600.0 calories into kilojoules

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

1. 2.510kJ

2. Q = 1.5 kJ

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information for this calorimetry problem, we can proceed as follows:

1. Here, we consider the following equivalence statement for converting from calories to joules and from joules to kilojoules:

$1cal=4.184J\\\\1kJ=1000J$

Then, we perform the conversion as follows:

$600.0cal*\frac{4.184J}{1cal}*\frac{1kJ}{1000J}=2.510kJ$

2. Here, we use the general heat equation:

$Q=mC(T_2-T_1)$

And we plug in the given mass, specific heat and initial and final temperature to obtain:

$Q=236g*0.24\frac{J}{g\°C} (34.9\°C-8.5\°C)\\\\Q=1495.3J*\frac{1kJ}{1000J} \\\\Q=1.5kJ$

Regards!

Why does magnesium oxide have a high melting point?

Mandarinka [93]

Magnesium oxide is an ionic compound ( because it consists of a metal and a non-metal)

In ionic compounds, electrons from the outer shell exchange between the atoms so that they each get a full outer shell. Once these electrons are exchange, the atoms will become ions. One ion will have a positive charge, and the other ion will have a negative charge. The positive and negative ions then bond strongly together in a lattice structure, due to the electrostatic forces of attraction.

These electrostatic forces of attraction are very strong and require a lot of energy to break, as such the compound will have a high melting point.

__________________________________________

Now lets look at the ionic bonding between magnesium and oxygen:

In the outer shell of Magnesium, there are 2 electrons.

In the outer shell Oxygen, there are 6 electrons.

Magnesium gives it's two electrons to Oxygen, so that the Oxygen now has a full outer shell of 8 electrons. However, since Oxygen gained two electrons, it will form a negatively charged ion with a charge of -2.

Since Magnesium lost the two electrons, it's second shell (which has 8 eletrons) now becomes the outer shell. So Magnesium also now has a full outer shell. But since it has lost two electrons, it becomes a positively charged ion with a charge of + 2.

The positive Magnesium ion and negative Oxygen ion and now strongly attracted to each other, and form a strong ionic compound (magnesium oxide) with a lattice structure.

The electrostatic forces of attraction between the positive Magnesium and negative Oxygen are so strong that a lot of heat and energy are needed to break them.

Therefore magnesium oxide has a high melting point.

Answer:

catalysts help speed up reactions which implies that they provide a alternative pathway and when there is less activation energy more particles have more energy to react
