Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A spontaneous reaction is defined as the process which tends to occur on its own. It does not require any external factor or force in order to start itself.
For example, when we dissolve KCl in water then potassium chloride being ionic in nature will dissolve on its own. Hence, it will be a spontaneous process.
And, a non-spontaneous reaction is defined as a process for the completion of which we have to provide certain conditions.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement it does not require any external action to begin, is true about a spontaneous process.
Answer:
Endothermic
Explanation:
Heat is retained while exothermic means heat is released
Answer:
CH₂
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass of compound = 1 g
Mass of CO₂ = 3.14 g
Mass of H₂O = 1.29 g
Empirical formula =?
Next, we shall determine the mass of Carbon and hydrogen present in the compound. This can be obtained as follow:
For Carbon, C:
Mass of CO₂ = 3.14 g
Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16)
= 12 + 32
= 44 g/mol
Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol
Mass of C =?
Mass of C = molar mass of C/ Molar mass of CO₂ × Mass of CO₂
Mass of C = 12/44 × 3.14
Mass of C = 0.86 g
For hydrogen, H:
Mass of C = 0.86 g
Mass of compound = 1 g
Mass of H =?
Mass of H = (Mass of compound) – (mass of C)
Mass of H = 1 – 0.86
Mass of H = 0.14 g
Finally, we shall determine the empirical formula of the cyclopropane. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass of C = 0.86 g
Mass of H = 0.14 g
Divide by their molar mass
C = 0.86 / 12 = 0.07
H = 0.14 / 1 = 0.14
Divide by the smallest
C = 0.07 / 0.07 = 1
H = 0.14 / 0.07 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula of cyclopropane is CH₂
The atomic number of an element is characteristic to that element. Atomic number is the number of protons of that element.
Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons of the element.
since protons and neutrons have a mass of 1 unit each, they together make up the mass of the element.
atomic number - number of protons - 92
mass number - number of neutrons + protons = 234
number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number
neutrons = 234 - 92 = 142
answer is 142
I know the answer but i really don’t
