<span>An explosion that releases great amounts of heat is an example of an exothermic process. Any reaction that gives off or releases energy as light, electricity, heat, or sound is considered to be exothermic, with "exo" meaning "outside". An explosion is one of the most extreme cases of exothermic reactions.</span>

Given the equation for a system at equilibrium:

zlopas [31]

Answer: 1. $NH_3$ increases.

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

For the given equation:

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)+energy$

If the concentration of $N_2$ is increased , according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the reaction has to shift to right or forward direction. In order to do that the concentration of products has to increase.

Thus the concentration of $NH_3$ increases.

Some students performed a titration between 20.0 mL of 0.5 M hydrochloric acid and 1.0 M potassium hydroxide solution. The stude

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

OPTION C) All hydrogen ions and all hydroxide ions have reacted to produce water, and so neither ion remains free in solution.

Explanation:

The PH reading on the left axis of the graph shows a value of 7.

A value of 7 on the PH scale implies that equal number of hydrogen ions completely reacted with hydroxyl ions to produce water i.e there is no excess of hydrogen and hydroxyl ion remaining in solution.

For values greater than 7, a basic solution is formed and it signifies the presence of excess hydroxyl ion. If the value is less than 7, there is more hydrogen ions in the solution formed and it is said to be acidic.

At point 7, the hydrogen and hydroxyl ions are equal and completely neutralize out one another.

Note: The acid solution would require a base volume of 20mL to be completely neutralized according to the plot. If it is less, the PH shifts to the left and the solution becomes acidic. If it more, the solution becomes basic and the PH shifts rightwards.

When 0.313 g of Mg is heated strongly in a nitrogen (N2) atmosphere, a chemical reaction occurs. The product of the reaction wei

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)

Explanation:

M(total) = M(mg) + M (n)

M (n) = M(total) - M(mg)

= 0.433g - 0.313g

= 0.12g

mole (N) = 0.12g / 14.0067 g/mol

= 0.008567

mole Mg = 0.313g / 24.3050 g/mol

= 0.012878

Mg = 0.012878 / 0.008567

= 1.5

N = 0.008567 / 0.008567

= 1

multiply by 2 to get whole numbers

Mg = 1.5 × 2 = 3

N = 1 × 2 = 2

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)

Use the data given below to construct a Born-Haber cycle to determine the second ionization energy of Ca. Δ H°(kJ) Ca(s)→Ca(g) 1

Drupady [299]

Answer : The value of second ionization energy of Ca is 1010 kJ.

Explanation :

The formation of calcium oxide is,

$Ca(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\overset{\Delta H_f}\rightarrow CaO(s)$

$\Delta H_f^o$ = enthalpy of formation of calcium oxide = -635 kJ

The steps involved in the born-Haber cycle for the formation of $CaO$ :

(1) Conversion of solid calcium into gaseous calcium atoms.

$Ca(s)\overset{\Delta H_s}\rightarrow Ca(g)$

$\Delta H_s$ = sublimation energy of calcium = 193 kJ

(2) Conversion of gaseous calcium atoms into gaseous calcium ions.

$Ca(g)\overset{\Delta H_I_1}\rightarrow Ca^{+1}(g)$

$\Delta H_I_1$ = first ionization energy of calcium = 590 kJ

(3) Conversion of gaseous calcium ion into gaseous calcium ions.

$Ca^{+1}(g)\overset{\Delta H_I_2}\rightarrow Ca^{+2}(g)$

$\Delta H_I_2$ = second ionization energy of calcium = ?

(4) Conversion of molecular gaseous oxygen into gaseous oxygen atoms.

$O_2(g)\overset{\Delta H_D}\rightarrow OI(g)$

$\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\overset{\Delta H_D}\rightarrow O(g)$

$\Delta H_D$ = dissociation energy of oxygen = $\frac{498}{2}=249kJ$

(5) Conversion of gaseous oxygen atoms into gaseous oxygen ions.

$O(g)\overset{\Delta H_E_1}\rightarrow O^-(g)$

$\Delta H_E_1$ = first electron affinity energy of oxygen = -141 kJ

(6) Conversion of gaseous oxygen ion into gaseous oxygen ions.

$O^-(g)\overset{\Delta H_E_2}\rightarrow O^{2-}(g)$

$\Delta H_E_2$ = second electron affinity energy of oxygen = 878 kJ

(7) Conversion of gaseous cations and gaseous anion into solid calcium oxide.

$Ca^{2+}(g)+O^{2-}(g)\overset{\Delta H_L}\rightarrow CaO(s)$

$\Delta H_L$ = lattice energy of calcium oxide = -3414 kJ

To calculate the overall energy from the born-Haber cycle, the equation used will be:

$\Delta H_f^o=\Delta H_s+\Delta H_I_1+\Delta H_I_2+\Delta H_D+\Delta H_E_1+\Delta H_E_2+\Delta H_L$

Now put all the given values in this equation, we get:

$-635kJ=193kJ+590kJ+\Delta H_I_2+249kJ+(-141kJ)+878kJ+(-3414kJ)$

$\Delta H_I_2=1010kJ$

Therefore, the value of second ionization energy of Ca is 1010 kJ.

Identify each of the following mixtures as either homogeneous or heterogeneous and as a solution, a suspension, or a colloid.

Grace [21]

With reference to the solutions, following things may be noted
1) Homogeneous solutions comprises of single phase.
2) Heterogeneous solution comprises of more than one phase.
3) in colloidal solution, solute is evenly distributed in solvent. in such system, it is difficult to separate solute and solvent.
4) in suspension, there is an uneven distribution of solute in solvent. In such system, solute and solvent gets separated on standing long.

Blood is a homogeneous and colloidal solution,
Salad dressing is a heterogeneous and suspension solution.
