Answer:

Well ice cubes are normally liquids but it is frozen water making it a solid. Since they are made of water particles, they wouldn't normally be a solid, but the particles are packed close enough together to make it one. Hope this helps! :D

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The answer is option a. The evaporation of water from the skin

Explanation:

An endothermic reaction is any synthetic reaction that retains heat from its environment. The ingested energy gives the enactment energy to the reaction to happen.

No new bonds formed, no bonds broken in this example. water molecules go from liquid to vapour (gas ), intermolecular bond exist between polar (-OH) molecules and energy is required to break these bonds during the change from liquid to gas. So, it is endothermic .

Remaining three above examples are exothermic. combustion of gas releases energy(exothermic). burninig of the candle exothermic because the energy released from the oxygen into carbon dioxide and water.oxidation of iron also exothermic

A compound contains 1.2 g of carbon, 3.2 g of oxygen and 0.2g of hydrogen. Find the formula of the compound

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound is $C_{0.504}HO_{1.008}$ .

Explanation:

We need to determine the empirical formula in its simplest form, where hydrogen ( $H$ ) is scaled up to a mole, since it has the molar mass, and both carbon ( $C$ ) and oxygen ( $O$ ) are also scaled up in the same magnitude. The empirical formula is of the form:

$C_{x}HO_{y}$

Where $x$ , $y$ are the number of moles of the carbon and oxygen, respectively.

The scale factor ( $r$ ), no unit, is calculated by the following formula:

$r = \frac{M_{H}}{m_{H}}$ (1)

Where:

$m_{H}$ - Mass of hydrogen, in grams.

$M_{H}$ - Molar mass of hydrogen, in grams per mole.

If we know that $M_{H} = 1.008\,\frac{g}{mol}$ and $m_{H} = 0.2\,g$ , then the scale factor is:

$r = \frac{1.008}{0.2}$

$r = 5.04$

The molar masses of carbon ( $M_{C}$ ) and oxygen ( $M_{O}$ ) are $12.011\,\frac{g}{mol}$ and $15.999\,\frac{g}{mol}$ , then, the respective numbers of moles are: ( $r = 5.04$ , $m_{C} = 1.2\,g$ , $m_{O} = 3.2\,g$ )
