Chemical energy sources are often portable and provide large amounts of energy. Fossil fuels are one kind of chemical energy sou

rce. Most of the energy we use in the United States is generated by the combustion of fossil fuels. However, fossil fuel combustion adds greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, mostly CO2. One measure of the total amount of greenhouse gases that are emitted into the atmosphere each year is called a carbon footprint. Read this article to compare the carbon footprint of an average person in the United States to an average person around the world.
Knowing that greenhouse gases are contributing to climate change, how can we reduce our carbon footprint, particularly in the United States? Could hydrogen fuel replace fossil fuels in the future? Why or why not? Should the size of a person’s carbon footprint be limited by law? Why or why not?

(b) Why is the heat of sublimation ( ΔH fus ) of a substance greater than its ( ΔHvap ) ?
Ivanshal [37]

This is because solids have less energy than liquids do, hence it takes more energy to excite a solid into its gaseous phase than it does a liquid.

When opposed to merely reducing their separation, from solid to liquid, the energy needed to totally separate the molecules as they move from liquid to gas is substantially higher. The latent heat of vaporization is therefore bigger than the latent heat of fusion for this reason.

<h3>What is heat of sublimation?</h3>

The amount of energy required to change one mole of a substance from its solid to its gaseous state under particular conditions—typically the standard ones—is known as the enthalpy of sublimation or heat of sublimation (STP). A solid's worth is based on its cohesive energy.

<h3>What is heat of vaporization?</h3>

The term "enthalpy of vaporization," which is often referred to as "heat of vaporization" or "heat of evaporation," refers to the amount of energy that must be applied to a liquid substance in order to cause a part of that substance to transform into a gas. Vaporization's enthalpy varies with the pressure at which the transition takes place.

Suppose that some FeSCN2+ is added to the above solution to shift the equilibrium. When equilibrium is re-established, the follo
kiruha [24]

Explanation:

The given reaction equation will be as follows.

          [FeSCN^{2+}] \rightleftharpoons [Fe^{3+}] + [SCN^{-}]

Let is assume that at equilibrium the concentrations of given species are as follows.

        [Fe^{3+}] = 8.17 \times 10^{-3} M

        [SCN^{-}] = 8.60 \times 10^{-3} M

        [FeSCN^{2+}] = 6.25 \times 10^{-2} M

Now, first calculate the value of K_{eq} as follows.

     K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

              = \frac{8.17 \times 10^{-3} \times 8.60 \times 10^{-3}}{6.25 \times 10^{-2}}

              = 11.24 \times 10^{-4}

Now, according to the concentration values at the re-established equilibrium the value for [FeSCN^{2+}] will be calculated as follows.

             K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

        11.24 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{8.12 \times 10^{-3} \times 7.84 \times 10^{-3}}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

         [FeSCN^{2+}] = 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of [FeSCN^{2+}] in the new equilibrium mixture is 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M.

What are the magnitude (size) and direction of the cumulative force acting on the car shown in the picture A. 30 N to the right
UNO [17]

Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Total forces exerting on the car = F

F_r=50 N= Force on car exerting in right direction

F_l=20 N= Force on car exerting in left direction

F_u=2500 N= Force on car exerting in upward direction

F_d=2500 N= Force on car exerting in downward direction

F=F_r+F_l+F_u+F_d

(-F_u)=F_d (negative sign shows the direction)

Since, upward force are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction by which they will balance out each other.so, the net force car will be due to two forces F_r and F_l

F=F_r+F_l=50 N+(-20 N)=30 N(negative shows the direction)

The magnitude (size) and direction of the cumulative force acting on the car will 30 N towards right direction.Hence, correct answer is option(A).

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Write a balanced chemical equation for t
Alona [7]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation is Mg + 2HCl ⇒ MgCl2 + H2

The molarity of the hydrochloric acid solution is HCl 0.04 M and the pH = 1.4.

The volume of hydrogen gas produced by the reaction of 0.510 g of Mg will be 0.482 L.

Explanation:

First, for the balanced equation you have to consider the oxidation state of the elements to find subscripts. Then you can find the correct coeficients. Mg= +2, Cl = -1.

Mg + HCL ⇒ MgCl2 + H2

For the molarity of the solution you have to notice tha if 0.510 grams of Mg reacts with 0,5 L of hydroclhoric acid, and from the previous equation 1 mol of Mg reacts with 2 mol HCl.

The atomic mass of Mg = 24.31 grs/mol

24.31 grs------------ 1 mol Mg

0.510 grs------------ x=0.02 mol Mg.

If 1 mol of Mg reacts with 2 mol HCl, then 0.02 mol of Mg will react with

0.04 mol HCl. So, the molarity of the solution is 0.04 M HCl.

Then to calculate the pH we use the formula pH = - log [H+]

⇒ pH = -log [0.04]⇒ pH=1.4.

Finally, from the balanced equation and the findings described, and considering that at 25°C and 1.00 atm 1 mol of gas has volume of 24.1 L.

1 mol H2----------- 24.1 L

0.02 mol H2----- x= 0.482L.
