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.

Answer:

V ≈ 646.50 L

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Gas Laws

Reading a Periodic Table
Stoichiometry
Combined Gas Law: PV = nRT
R constant - 62.4 (L · torr)/(mol · K)
Kelvin Conversion: K = °C + 273.15

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

RxN: N₂H₄ (g) + O₂ (g) → N₂ (g) + 2H₂O (l)

Given: 34.9 °C, 755.08 torr, 914.894 g H₂O

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Kelvin Conversion

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

Stoichiometry: $914.894 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O} )(\frac{1 \ mol \ N_2}{2 \ mol \ H_2O} )$ = 25.3955 mol N₂

Temperature: 34.9 + 273.15 = 308.05 K

Step 4: Find Volume

Substitute variables: (755.08 torr)V = (25.3955 mol)(62.4 (L · torr)/(mol · K))(308.05 K)
Multiply: (755.08 torr)V = 488160 L · torr
Isolate V: V = 646.502 L

Step 5: Check

We are given 5 sig figs as our lowest. Follow sig fig rules and round.

646.502 L ≈ 646.50 L

Answer:

Explanation:

"Nature does this job through a process called the water cycle. Also known as hydrologic cycle, the water cycle is a phenomenon where water moves through the three phases (gas, liquid and solid) over the four spheres (atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere) and completes a full cycle. The water cycle has many effects: it regulates the temperature of the surroundings. It changes weather and creates rain. It helps in conversion of rocks to soil. It circulates important minerals through the spheres. It also creates the many geographical features present on earth like the ice caps of mountains, icebergs, the rivers and the valleys, lakes, and more. Hence it is quite important to understand and learn the processes of the water cycle."

Diamonds are composed of __________ in a ___________lattice. A. silicon, trigonal planar B. quartz, octahedral lattice C. carbon

Nata [24]

Diamonds are composed of carbon in a tetrahedral lattice. That is option C.

<h3>What is a diamond?</h3>

A diamond of defined as an allotrope or one of the major forms of the element, carbon in nature.

These carbon atoms are arranged within the diamond in a face centered cubic tetrahedral lattice shape.

Therefore, Diamonds are composed of carbon in a tetrahedral lattice.
