Physical change
Giddy Up!!!!!
Answer:
Explanation:
ok but what is the question
Isotope- variation of an element
Sixteen- atomic number of oxygen
a) The reaction is exothermic since the overall enthalpy change is negative. this means that the system has lost energy to the environment, namely, the apparatus and due to drought.
b) We first calculate the number of moles in 3.55 grams of magnesium.
number of moles= mass/ atomic mass
=3.55/24
=0.1479 moles(to 4sf)
now, if 2 moles of magnesium give -1204kJ
How much energy is given by 0.1479 moles
= (0.1479×-1204kJ)
=-89.0358kJ (don't forget the negative sign)
c) two molesof MgO produces -1204kJ of energy
then -234kJ will be produced by
=(-234kJ×2moles)/1204kJ
=0.3887moles
one mole of MgO weighs 24+16=40
therefore the mass produced is 0.3887moles×40=15.548grams
(d) we first find the number of moles of MgO in 40.3 grams
number of moles=mass/RFM
=40.3g/40= 1.0075moles
if 2 moles of MgO give 1204 kJ then decomposing 1.0075 moles requires
(1.0075 moles×1204kJ)/2=606.515kJ
Answer:
If one of the reactants is a solid, only the particles at the surface can partake in the reaction. Breaking the reactant into smaller pieces increases the surface and more particles are exposed to the reaction mixture. This results in an increased frequency of collisions and therefore a faster rate of reaction
