The reaction CO₂(g) → C(s) +O₂(g) is a decomposition reaction is true
Explanation
A Decomposition reaction is a reaction in which involve breaking down a compound into two or more simpler substances.
The reaction above is a decomposition reaction since CO₂ molecule is broken down into C (an element) and O₂ (a molecule).
The masses can be found by substractions:
- Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):
16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g
15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g
- The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:
2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g
- The percent of water is found by the formula:
massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%
0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%
- The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):
0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water
- A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)
1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄
- The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:
0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49
In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O
Answer:
\large \boxed{\textbf{609 kJ}}
Explanation:
The formula for the heat absorbed is
q = mCΔT
Data:
m = 2.07 kg
T₁ = 23 °C
T₂ = 191 °C
C = 1.75 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹
Calculations:
1. Convert kilograms to grams
2.07 kg = 2070 g
2. Calculate ΔT
ΔT = T₂ - T₁ = 191 - 23 = 168 °C
3. Calculate q

Answer:
Exergonic ,Endergonic,low concentration area,high
Explanation:
In exergonic reaction,certain molecules are broken down;in the process they release energy which is captured when high energy molecules(such as ATP and NADH) are formed.
The breakdown of these molecules can be coupled to thermodynamically unfavorable processes such as Endergonic reactions or pumping og hydrogen ion from low concentration areas to high concentration areas.
Covalent bonds formed when two atoms share an electron, as opposed to an Ionic bond where one atom takes an electron(or two) from another atom.
