Why are chemists interested in studying thermochemistry? a. Heat is often absorbed during reactions.b. Heat is often released du

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

a. Heat is often absorbed during reactions.

c. Heat is often released during chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Thermochemistry -

The study of thermochemistry involve the change in the amount of heat , during any physical or chemical process , is referred to as thermodynamics .

The focus of thermochemistry is on the changing amount of energy in the form of heat , on the system with respect to the surroundings .

The process like boiling , melting , sublimation , may require energy or releases energy , and hence are studied under thermochemistry .

Hence , from the given question ,

The correct options are - a , c.

How do I draw energy level diagrams?

finlep [7]

Energy levels inside an atom are the specific energies that electrons can have when energy occupies specific orbitals. Electrons can be excited to higher energy levels by absorbing energy from the surroundings, an equivalent light is emitted when an electron returns from a high energy state to a lower one. Representation of this diagrammatic is known as the energy level diagram.

Mario uses a hot plate to heat a beaker of 50mL of water. He used a thermometer to measure the temperature of the water. The wat

Answer:

The boiling point decreases as the volume decreases.

Explanation:

The Temperature - Volume law otherwise called as Charles law is applied, which says that the volume of the given gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the temperature measured in Kelvin. As the volume increases, the temperature also increases, if the volume decreases, then the temperature also decreases.

As per the Charles law, here the volume is decreased from 50 ml to 25 ml so the boiling point also decreases.

Solid NaBr is slowly added to a solution that is 0.073 M in Cu+ and 0.073 M in Ag+.Which compound will begin to precipitate firs

saul85 [17]

Answer :

AgBr should precipitate first.

The concentration of $Ag^+$ when CuBr just begins to precipitate is, $1.34\times 10^{-6}M$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains is, 0.0018 %

Explanation :

$K_{sp}$ for CuBr is $4.2\times 10^{-8}$

$K_{sp}$ for AgBr is $7.7\times 10^{-13}$

As we know that these two salts would both dissociate in the same way. So, we can say that as the Ksp value of AgBr has a smaller than CuBr then AgBr should precipitate first.

Now we have to calculate the concentration of bromide ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$CuBr\rightleftharpoons Cu^++Br^-$
