Drugs are substances that change a person's mental or physical state. They can affect the way your brain works, how you feel and behave, your understanding and your senses. This makes them unpredictable and dangerous, especially for young people. The effects of drugs are different for each person and drug.

Answer:

hydration reaction

Explanation:

The type of reaction would be hydration reaction.

<u>Hydration reaction generally involves a chemical reaction of water with another reactant and in which the water ends up being converted to another product entirely. </u>

A good example of hydration reaction is the reaction between alkene and water leading to the production of alcohol.

CH_2=CH_2(g)   +   H_2O(g)  ⇄  CH_3CH_2OH(g)

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 800.0 mm hg contains 60% nitrogen and 40% oxygen by volume. what is the partial pressure o

Hello!

<span>We have the following statement data:
</span>
Data:
P_{Total} = 800 mmHg
P\% N_{2} = 60\%
P\% O_{2} = 40\%
P_{partial} = ? (mmHg)

<span>As the percentage is the mole fraction multiplied by 100:

</span>P =  X_{ O_{2} }*100

<span>The mole fraction will be the percentage divided by 100, thus:
</span><span>What is the partial pressure of oxygen in this mixture? 
</span>
X_{ O_{2} }  =  \frac{P}{100}
X_{ O_{2}} =  \frac{40}{100}
\boxed{X_{ O_{2}} = 0.4}


<span>To calculate the partial pressure of the oxygen gas, it is enough to use the formula that involves the pressures (total and partial) and the fraction in quantity of matter:
</span>
In relation to O_{2} :

\frac{P O_{2} }{P_{total}} = X_O_{2}
\frac{P O_{2} }{800} = 0.4
P_O_{2} = 0.4*800
\boxed{\boxed{P_O_{2} = 320\:mmHg}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Reil [10]
The heat transfer formula is;
Q = m * c * Δ T >>>> (1)
where, Q is the heat transfer
m = mass  (gram)
c = the specific heat capacity (J/g)
Δ T = change in temperature
∵ we have one mole of Ethanol
∴ the weight of ethanol equals its molecular weight = (2*12)+(6*1)+(16) = 46 g
we will assume that the specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2.46 J/g (from google) 
ΔT = 25 - 320 = - 295 C
By substitution in (1)
∴ Q = 2.46 * 46 * (-295) = - 33382.2 J
