Answer:

Ice melts into liquid water- endothermic

A process with a calculated positive q - endothermic

Wood burns in a fireplace - exothermic

A process with a calculated negative q - exothermic

Acid and base are mixed, making test tube feel hot - exothermic

Solid dissolves into solution, making ice pack feel cold - endothermic

Explanation:

An endothermic process is one in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings. The absorption of heat means that heat is removed from the surroundings hence the surroundings feel cool. When heat is absorbed, q is positive.

An exothermic process is one in which heat is released to the surroundings. The evolution of heat means that heat is released into the surroundings hence the surroundings feel hot . When heat is evolved, q is negative.

Explain how atoms organize to create larger structures?

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

First of all they are super tiny particles of neutrons, electrons and protons. Then they come together to organize a structure of atom. Atoms come together to form a molecule and smaller molecules work together to form macromolecules. Thus, how they organize and form building blocks of a substance.

I don't know how to do this, pls help!

Cations from smallest to largest
Li⁺ ,Na⁺, K⁺ (from Periodic Table, the bigger number of period, the bigger size, of atom, so the bigger size of cation)

1) LiF smaller cation then KF
1,036 853
The lattice energy increases as cations get smaller, as shown by LiF and KF.
I think this one should be correct answer, because the compared substances have also the same anion, and we can compare cations in them.

2) The same cation Li , so wrong statement.

3)The same cation Na , so wrong statement.

4) NaCl smaller cation then KF
786 853

Complete Question

A sample of aluminum, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.897 JB loc ! is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 200.0 g of water. The aluminum sample starts off at 85.6 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 16.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 20.1 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. Calculate the mass of the aluminum sample.

Answer:

$M=58g$
