Answer:

Magnesium

Zinc

Iron

Copper

Explanation:

The given elements are:

Magnesium, copper, iron and zinc

We are to put them in the order from the least reactive to the most reactive of all.

To solve this problem, we simply use the activity series of metals to arrange the elements.

The activity series arranges metals from the most reactive to the least reactive. The more reactive metals displaces the lesser one from solutions.

So;

Magnesium

Zinc

Iron

Copper

Carbon, hydrogen and ethane each burn exothermically in an excess of air. AHⓇ =-393.7 kJ mol. C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) H2(g) + % O2

Answer: The $\Delta H^o_{rxn}$ for the reaction is 51.8 kJ.

Explanation:

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The chemical equation for the reaction of carbon and water follows:

$2C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)$ $\Delta H^o_{rxn}=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) $C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)$ $\Delta H_1=-393.7kJ$ ( × 2)

(2) $H_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_2=-285.9kJ$ ( × 2)

(3) $2C_2H_4(s)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_3=-1411kJ$

The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[2\times \Delta H_1]+[2\times \Delta H_2]+[1\times (-\Delta H_3)]$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (-393.7))+(2\times (-285.9))+(1\times -(-1411))]=51.8kJ$

Hence, the $\Delta H^o_{rxn}$ for the reaction is 51.8 kJ.

The density of gold is 19.3 g /cm cubed The density of iron pyrite is 5.0 g /cm cubed. Is a nugget of iron pyrite and a nugget o

telo118 [61]

If you clear volume in the density equation:

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}\ \to\ V = \frac{m}{\rho}$

The greater the density the lower the volume. This means, the volume of gold nugget will be smaller than the volume of iron pyrite nugget.

$V_{gold} = \frac{m}{\rho} = \frac{50\ g}{19.3\ g/cm^3} = \bf 2.59\ cm^3$

$V_{iron} = \frac{m}{\rho} = \frac{50\ g}{5.0\ g/cm^3} = \bf 10\ cm^3$

Which formula correctly represents the product of an addition reaction between ethene and chlorine?

Serjik [45]

The formula that correctly represents the product of an addition reaction between ethene and chlorine is C2H4Cl2
Addition reaction occurs when an atom is added to a compound that has a double bond or triple bond (unsaturated hydrocarbons). Unsaturated compounds are associated with addition reactions. For example Ethene is an example of unsaturated hydrocarbon; when reacted with chlorine gas , chlorine atoms are added to each carbon atoms.
