Look at the potential energy diagram for a chemical reaction.

Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago

Answer: The activation energy is 10 kJ and the reaction is exothermic.

Explanation: Exothermic reactions are those in which heat is released and thus the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.

Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed and thus the energy of products is more than the energy of reactants.

Activation energy is the extra amount of energy required by the reactants to cross the energy barrier to convert to products.

Given : Energy of reactants = 40kJ

Energy of activation: (50-40)=10 kJ

Energy of products = 50 kJ

Energy of products = 15 kJ

Thus Energy of products (15kJ) < Energy of reactants(40kJ), the reaction is exothermic as energy has been lost to surroundings in the form of heat.

A. how do you determine the charge of an element?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. The charge on an element is determined by the differences between the number of protons and electrons in an atom.

An atom will have no charges if the number of protons and electrons are the same.

  • When an atom loses or gains electrons, the number of electrons will either decrease or increase
  • if the number of electrons is more than the number of protons, the excess electrons is the charge on the atom. And this makes the atom become a negatively charged ion.
  • if the number of electrons is lesser than the number of protons, the deficient electrons makes the atom a positively charged ion. The number of electrons by which the atom is deficient makes the atom a positively charged ion.

Charge  = number of protons  - number of electrons

B. Electrons form the charges they do because with the charge, they become stable like the noble gases.

The desire of every atom is  to have stable electronic configuration like those of the noble gases.

A potassium atom with a configuration 2 8 8 1 will prefer to lose an electron to become an Argon atom making the ion stable.
