Drag each label to the correct location on the chart. Classify each reaction as endothermic or exothermic.
fomenos

A reaction is exothermic if Δ<em>H</em> (or \Delta H _\text{rxn} in some textbooks) is negative:

  • H₂ + Br → 2 HBr, ΔH < 0.
  • CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O, ΔH < 0.

A reaction is endothermic if Δ<em>H</em> is positive:

  • 2 NH₃ → N₂ + 3 H₂, ΔH > 0.
  • 2 HCl → H₂ + Cl₂ ΔH > 0.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

The enthalpy of a system is the sum of its internal energy. ΔH < 0 indicates that the reactants lose internal energy in the reaction. Energy conserves, and those internal energies must have converted to some other form of energy. They typically end up as thermal energy. The reaction will release heat since it is exothermic.

Similarly, ΔH > 0 indicates that the reactants gains internal energy in the reaction. Energy conserves. As a result, the reaction must have gained energy from its surroundings. The reaction will be endothermic since it absorbs heat.

All of the following are true concerning enzymes, except that they:
suter [353]

Answer:

D (or E If properly listed to include the active site option)

Explanation:

A. Is true

Enzymes are organically biochemical catalyst and thus they can speed up the rate of chemical reaction in the body

B is true

They are catalysts as said earlier

C is true

They have active sites. An enzyme does not act on all substrates. They have particular group on which they can act. For example, we have carbohydrates enzymes that act on carbohydrates substrate only. This enzymes have no business acting on a protein substrate.

D. Enzymes are proteins

One of the important characteristics of enzymes is that they are protenious in nature

E. This is wrong. Enzymes like any over catalyst are not consumed in the course of the biochemical reaction

The following conditions must be met before a standard calibration curve equation can be used to solve for the concentration of
zzz [600]

Answer:

The same instrument must be used to measure the unknown solution as was used to measure the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.

The analyte in the unknown solution must be the same analyte (or type of analyte) that is present in the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.

Domain and range restrictions must be observed.

Explanation:

Calibration curves are tools necessary in understanding the instrumental response for any analyte.

A calibration curve is obtained by preparing a set of  standard solutions with known concentrations of the analyte. The instrument response for each concentration is measured  and plotted against the concentration of the standard solution. The linear portion of this plot may be used to determine the unknown concentration of a sample of the analyte.  

The equation of the best-fit line is  used to determine the concentration of the unknown sample.

There are two steps in the extraction of copper metal from chalcocite, a copper ore. In the first step, copper(I) sulfide and ox
zimovet [89]

Answer:

2Cu₂S(s) + 2C(s) + 3O₂ → 4Cu(s)+ 2CO(g)  + 2SO₂(g)

Explanation:

First step, copper(I) sulfide and oxygen react to form copper(I) oxide and sulfur dioxide.

2Cu₂S(s)+ 3O₂(g) → 2Cu₂O(s) + 2SO₂(g)

Second step, copper(I) oxide and carbon react to form copper and carbon monoxide:

Cu₂O(s)+ C(s) → 2 Cu(s)+ CO(g)

Net chemical equation for the production of copper from copper(I) sulfide, oxygen and carbon.

We do this by merging the reactants of both steps alongside the products of both reactants.

Cu₂S(s) + C(s) + O₂ → Cu(s)+ CO(g)  + SO₂(g)

The equation above is not balanced because the number of atoms of the elements (Specifically Cu and O) are different when compared in the reactant and product side.

Number of atoms of Copper (Cu)

Reactant = 2, Product = 1

Number of atoms of Sulphur (S)

Reactant = 1, Product = 1

Number of atoms of Carbon (C)

Reactant = 1, Product = 1

Number of atoms of Oxygen (O)

Reactant = 2, Product = 3

We balance the equation by adding appropriate number as coefficients to make the number of atoms balanced on both sides.

Upon balancing, we now have;

2Cu₂S(s) + 2C(s) + 3O₂ → 4Cu(s)+ 2CO(g)  + 2SO₂(g)

To check if it is balanced;

Number of atoms of Copper (Cu)

Reactant = 4, Product = 4

Number of atoms of Sulphur (S)

Reactant = 2, Product = 2

Number of atoms of Carbon (C)

Reactant = 2, Product = 2

Number of atoms of Oxygen (O)

Reactant = (3 * 2) = 6, Product = ( 2 + 2*2) = 2 + 4 = 6

Equation is now balanced!
