Answer:

Explanation:

To break apart a molecule of H2So4 is much higher than HCl although HCl is an ionic bond it is only bonded to one hydrogen. While H2So4 is bonded to two of them, aswell as its structure being much more complex. The energy to break Ba(h)2 is equal in both.

A sodium ion, Na+, with a charge of 1.6×10−19C and a chloride ion, Cl− , with charge of −1.6×10−19C, are separated by a distance

Answer:

$W\geq 2.1x10^{-19}J$

Explanation:

Due to Coulomb´s law electric force can be described by the formula $F=K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{r^{2}}$ , where K is the Coulomb´s constant ( $9x10^{9} N\frac{m^{2} }{C^{2} }$ ), $q_{1}$ = Charge 1 (Na+ in this case), $q_{2}$ is the charge 2 (Cl-) and r is the distance between both charges.

Work made by a force is W=F.d and total work produced is the change in energy between final and initial state. this is $W=W_{f} -W_{i}$ .

so we have $W=W_{f} -W_{i} =(K\frac{q_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)}rf}{r_{f} ^{2}})-(K\frac{q_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)}ri}{r_{i} ^{2}})=Kq_{(Na+)}q_{(Cl-)[\frac{1}{{r_{f}}} -\frac{1}{{r_{i}}}]$
