Answer: The reaction is exothermic. The value of q is -542 kJ.
Explanation:
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 for the reaction comes out to be positive.
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 for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Thus
evolves heat , it is exothermic in nature. The value of q is -542kJ.
Answer:
Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)
Explanation:
Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,
Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 Na + Cl₂ → NaCl
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.
Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.
Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 K + Cl₂ → KCl
Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂
As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
Answer:
When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon).
Explanation: pls mark brainliest :))
1.Decomposition i think
