How much water is in lakes, rivers and swamps?

Determine whether each described process is endothermic or exothermic.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Ice melts into liquid water- endothermic

A process with a calculated positive q - endothermic

Wood burns in a fireplace - exothermic

A process with a calculated negative q - exothermic

Acid and base are mixed, making test tube feel hot - exothermic

Solid dissolves into solution, making ice pack feel cold - endothermic

Explanation:

An endothermic process is one in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings. The absorption of heat means that heat is removed from the surroundings hence the surroundings feel cool. When heat is absorbed, q is positive.

An exothermic process is one in which heat is released to the surroundings. The evolution of heat means that heat is released into the surroundings hence the surroundings feel hot . When heat is evolved, q is negative.

How do you use nonmetal in a sentence?

skad [1K]

Here Is A Sentence You Could Possibly Use:

"Hydrogen and Nitrogen are two examples of non-metals."

(You can replace the two given elements with whatever two non-metallic elements you like.)

Hope This Helps!

BTW, You May Want A Second Opinion Just In Case! :)

You need a 20% alcohol solution. on hand, you have a 240 ml of a 15% alcohol mixture. you also have 40% alcohol mixture. how muc

juin [17]

0.15*240=36 ml of alcohol in 240 ml of a 15% alcohol mixture
0.4x = ml of alcohol in x ml of a 40% alcohol mixture
0.2(x+240)= ml of alcohol in (x+240) ml of a 20% alcohol mixture

0.15*240 + 0.4x = 0.2(x+240)
36+0.4x=0.2x+48
0.2x = 12
x=12/0.2=120/6=20 ml of a 40% alcohol mixture

Consider the following reaction at constant pressure. Use the information provided below to determine the value of ΔS at 473 K.

Elis [28]

Answer:

The reaction will be spontaneous

Explanation:

To determine if the reaction will be spontaneous or not at this temperature, we need to calculate the Gibbs's energy using the following formula:

$\Delta G= \Delta H - T * \Delta S$

If the Gibbs's energy is negative, the reaction will be spontaneous, but if it's positive it will not.

Calculating the $\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$ :

$\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$

Now, other factor we need to determine is the sign of the S variation. When talking about gases, the more moles you have in your system the more enthropic it is.

In this reaction you go from 7 moles to 8 moles of gas, so you can say that you are going from one enthropy to another higher than the first one. This results in: $\Delta S>0[/tex}Back to this expression: [tex]\Delta G= -1267 - 473 K* \Delta S$

If the variation of S is positive, the Gibbs's energy will be negative always and the reaction will be spontaneous.

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O <---> C6H12O6 + 6O2, WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?

Alex73 [517]

Increase in Oxygen shift the equilibrium towards reactant side.

Explanation:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇄ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

This is the reaction occurs in the photosynthesis of plants by means of sunlight. In this case, if the concentration of Oxygen increases or adding more oxygen to the product side will shift the equilibrium towards the reactant side according to the Le Chatlier's principle, which adjusts the equilibrium by itself for any changes that is increase or decrease in pressure, temperature or concentration of reactants or products.
