Answer:

d. ΔH° > 0, process is endothermic.

Explanation:

Cold packs contain ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃). When this salt dissolves in water, it decreases the temperature of the surroundings. This happens because the process is endothermic (absorbs heat from the surroundings). By convention, when a process is endothermic, the standard enthalpy carries a positive sign (ΔH° > 0).

What is the molarity of a solution of 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution?
jekas [21]

Answer:

1.72 M

Explanation:

Molarity is the molar concentration of a solution. It can be calculated using the formula a follows:

Molarity = number of moles (n? ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question, the solution has 58.7 grams of MgCl2 in 359 ml of solution.

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl2 = 24 + 35.5(2)

= 24 + 71

= 95g/mol

mole = 58.7g ÷ 95g/mol

mole = 0.618mol

Volume of solution = 359ml = 359/1000 = 0.359L

Molarity = 0.618mol ÷ 0.359L

Molarity = 1.72 M

Which of these is a metamorphic rock?<br> A basalt<br> B granite<br> C limestone<br> D slate
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

B:GRANITE

Explanation:

<em>Granite is typical of a larger family of granitic rocks that are composed mostly of coarse-grained quartz and feldspars in varying proportions. These rocks are classified by the relative percentages of quartz, alkali feldspar, and plagioclase (the QAPF classification), with true granite representing granitic rocks rich in quartz and alkali feldspar. Most granitic rocks also contain mica or amphibole minerals, though a few (known as leucogranites) contain almost no dark minerals.</em>

These properties have made granite a widespread construction stone throughout human history.</em>

Who discovered atomic structure​
Yuliya22 [10]
John Dalton

Although the concept of the atom dates back to the ideas of Democritus, the English meteorologist and chemist John Dalton formulated the first modern description of it as the fundamental building block of chemical structures.
