The mass of an atom is given by the sum of the number of PROTONS and the number of NEUTRONS since ELETRON'S mass is negligible.
The mass is 24+28 = 52.
Answer: The reaction is exothermic. The value of q is -542 kJ.
Explanation:
Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be positive.
Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Thus
evolves heat , it is exothermic in nature. The value of q is -542kJ.
An earthquake's magnitude is a measure of how much energy an earthquake releases. Typically, the richter scale is used.
The answer is baking a cake.
