Answer:

a) E = 17.55 MeV

b) E = 18.99 MeV

c) E = 3.29 MeV

d) You can use the methods applied for the other parts to solve this, the equation is not properly written

e) E = 4.075 MeV

Explanation:

Energy Released, E = \triangle M * 931.5

\triangle M = \sum M_{product} - \sum M_{reactant}

Mass of 1H, M_{H} = 1.007823

Mass of 2H, M_{2H} = 2.0141u

Mass of 3H, M_{3H} = 3.016 u

Mass of Helium, M_{4He} = 4.002602u

Mass of Beryllium, M_{7Be} = 7.01693 u

Mass of neutron, M_{n} = 1.008664 u

a) 2H + 3H \rightarrow 4He + n

\triangle M = (4M_{He} + M_{n} ) - (2M_{H} + 3 M_{H} )\\\triangle M = ( 4.0026 + 1.008664) - (2.0141 + 3.016 )\\\triangle M = -0.01884u

Energy released,

E = -0.01884 * 931.5\\E = -17.55 Mev

Energy released = 17.55 MeV

b) 4He + 4He \rightarrow 7Be + n

\triangle M = (M_{7Be} + M_{n} ) - (M_{4He} +  M_{4He} )\\\triangle M = ( 7.01693 + 1.008664) - (4.002602 + 4.002602 )\\\triangle M = 0.02039 u

Energy released,

E = 0.02039 * 931.5\\E = 18.99 Mev

c) 2H + 2H \rightarrow 3 He + n

\triangle M = (M_{3He} + M_{n} ) - (M_{2H} +  M_{2H} )\\\triangle M = ( 3.016 + 1.008664) - (2.0141 + 2.0141 )\\\triangle M = -0.003536 u

Energy released,

E = -0.003536 * 931.5\\E = -3.29 Mev

E = 3.29 MeV(Energy is released)

d) You can use the methods applied for the other parts to solve this, the equation is not properly written

e) 2H + 2H \rightarrow 3H + 1H

\triangle M = (M_{3H} + M_{1H} ) - (M_{2H} +  M_{2H} )\\\triangle M = ( 3.016 + 1.007825) - (2.0141 + 2.0141 )\\\triangle M = -0.00435 u

E = -0.00435 * 931.5\\E =-4.075 Mev

E = 4.075 MeV ( Energy is released)

Calculate the mass in grams of 1.72×10^24 molecules of formaldehyde. The chemical formula for formaldehyde is CH2O.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: m= 85.8 g CH2O

Explanation: First step is convert the molecules of CH2O to moles using the Avogadro's Number.

1.72x10²⁴ molecules CH2O x 1 mole CH2O / 6.022x10²³ molecules CH2O

= 2.86 moles CH2O

Next is convert the moles of CH2O to mass using the molar mass of CH2O

2.86 moles CH2O x 30 g CH2O / 1 mole CH2O

= 85.8 g CH2O

Please I don't understand any of this. If you can answer by midnight this is due tomorrow, April 29th
kupik [55]

Answer:

(2) Adding more O2(g) would shift the equilibrium to the right because a higher concentration of oxygen is offered than its initial position, therefore more products have to be yielded to maintain equilibrium.
