Explanation:

The bond between two oxygen atoms is covalent (covalent bonding is bonding between Non metals (the electrons are shared)).

The bond between the Na and Cl (NaCl) is ionic (ionic bonding is bonding between a metal (in this case the Na) and a non metal (the Cl). This type of bonds deals with the metal losing electrons and the non metal gaining electrons. The metal therefore become positively charged (so it becomes ionic) and the non metals gain electrons and become negatively charged (also becomes ionic/ forms an ion). The opposite charges attract each other and this is why they bond.

Give the ΔH value for the decomposition of silver chloride as shown in the reaction 2AgCl(s)+127 kJ→2Ag(s)+Cl2(g).

choli [55]

Answer: $\Delta H=+127kJ$

Explanation:

$2AgCl(s)+127kJ\rightarrow 2Ag(s)+Cl_2(g)$

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and $\Delta H$ for the reaction comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and $\Delta H$ for the reaction comes out to be positive.

As the heat is absorbed the reactants , the reaction is endothermic and $\Delta H$ for the given endothermic reaction will be +127 KJ
