Answer:

Endothermic  

Explanation:

The temperature of the water decreased.

The water lost heat.

The heat must have gone into getting the KNO₃ into solution.

So, the dissolving of KNO₃ in water is endothermic.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

9.1 mol

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

CO (g) + 2H2 (g) → CH3OH (l)

According to the above balanced equation, 2 moles of hydrogen gas (H2) are needed to produce 1 mole of methanol (CH3OH).

To convert 36.7 g of hydrogen gas to moles, we use the formula;

mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of H2 = 2.02g/mol

mole = 36.7/2.02

mole = 18.17mol

This means that if;

2 moles of H2 reacts to produce 1 mole of CH3OH

18.17mol of H2 will react to produce;

18.17 × 1 / 2

= 18.17/2

= 9.085

Approximately to 1 d.p = 9.1 mol of methanol (CH3OH).

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space, It can exist in 3 states, or phases: solid, liquid, and gas.

Solid molecules are closely packed together and retain a fixed shape.

Liquid molecules aren't packed very closely, and take the shape of the bottom of the container.

Gas molecules are far apart and fill the container

completely.

En un recipiente cerrado y rígido se introdujo una mezcla gaseosa a cierta temperatura y las presiones parciales de cada gas son
valkas [14]

Answer:

Qp > Kp, por lo tanto, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

Explanation:

Paso 1: Escribir la ecuación balanceada

BrF₃ (g) ⇌ BrF(g) + F₂(g)      Kp(T) = 64,0

Paso 2: Calcular el cociente de reacción (Qp)

Qp = pBrF × pF₂ / pBrF₃

Qp = 1,50 × 2,00 / 0,0150 = 200

Paso 3: Sacar una conclusión

Dado que Qp > Kp, la reacción se desplazará hacia la izquierda para alcanzar el equilibrio, es decir, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

Which of the following elements is the least reactive metal? Sodium, Rubidium, Chlorine, and Magnesium.​
LuckyWell [14K]
First off chlorine is not a metal so you can ignore that one.

Sodium and Rubidium are in group 1 of the periodic table and Magnesium is in group 2.

Group one metals are more reactive than group two because it is harder for the group two metals to lose their 2 valence (outer most) electrons.

As you go down group 1 there is an increase in the reactivity this is because as you go down there is an increase in the atomic radius which leads to more shielding. This weakens the electrostatic forces of attraction making it easier to lose the outermost electrons, therefore they are more reactive.

The town of Natrium, West Virginia, derives its name from the sodium produced in the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride (NaC
Alona [7]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           Na^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow Na(s)

Hence, moles of Na = moles of electron used

Therefore, calculate the number of moles of sodium as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                             = \frac{4500 g}{23 g/mol}    (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

                             = 195.65 mol

As,     Q = n \times F       where F = Faraday's constant

              = 195.65 mol \times 96500 C

              = 1.88 \times 10^{7} mol C

Relation between electrical energy and Q is as follows.

               E = Q \times V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula and then calculate the value of electricity as follows.

              E = Q \times V

                 = 1.88 \times 10^{7} \times 5

                 = 9.4 \times 10^{7} J

As 1 J = 2.77 \times 10^{-7} kWh

Hence,      \frac{9.4 \times 10^{7}}{2.77 \times 10^{-7}} kWh

                = 3.39 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 3.39 kilowatt-hours of electricity is required in the given situation.
