Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When one mole of a substance is heated to change its phase from solid to liquid then the heat required to bring this change is known as heat of fusion.

Whereas a point where vapor pressure of liquid equals the atmospheric pressure of the surrounding liquid then it is known as boiling point.

A temperature where a substance starts to melt is known as melting point.

Heat of vaporization is defined as the amount of heat required to change one mole of a liquid into vapor state.

Whereas a point of temperature where liquid turns into solid is known as freezing point.

Thus, we can conclude that the correct term used to describe the amount of heat required to prompt a phase change in the given situation is heat of fusion.

Answer:

easy

Explanation:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. This law means that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

Solid calcium carbonate (CaCO3) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCI) to form carbon dioxide, water, and
Pavlova-9 [17]

Using a more concentrated HCl solution and Crushing the CaCO₃ into a fine powder makes the reaction to occur at a faster rate.

<u>Explanation:</u>

CaCO₃(s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl₂(aq) + H₂O(aq) + CO₂(g)

When calcium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid, it gives out carbon-dioxide in the form of bubbles and there is a formation of calcium chloride in aqueous medium.

The rate of the reaction can be increased by

  • Using a more concentrated HCl solution
  • Crushing the CaCO₃ into a fine powder

When concentrated acid is used instead of dilute acid then the reaction will occur at a faster rate.

When CaCO₃ is crushed into a fine powder then the surface area will increases thereby increasing the rate of the reaction.
