Answer: (3) Energy is absorbed as bonds are broken, and energy is released as bonds are formed.
Explanation:
1) The equation given is H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g) + energy
2) The energy is shown in the product side, so energy is a product of the reaction, so energy is release.
But this is just the net energy of the process. You need more insight to deal with the energy changes in the reaction.
3) Chemical bonds store energy; this stored energy is the potential chemical energy of the molecules.
When a chemical reaction occurs, the first stage is to brake bonds.
Braking chemical bonds requires energy to overcome the bond energy. Braking bonds always absorbs energy.
On the other hand, forming bonds always release energy.
The neat energy of the reaction is the difference between the energy needed to break bonds and the energy released when new bonds form.
So, regardless the fact that, in the chemical equation that represents the reaction a net energy release is shown, you know that energy is absorbed as bonds are broken, and energy is released as bonds are formed (option 3).
Steve, Sarah, Richard, and Kate each run paper chromatography on unknown liquids. Steve gets a red band, Sarah gets a yellow band, Richard gets a greenband, and Kate gets a yellow band and a blue band.
I am pretty sure it would be Kate since she got 2 different colored bands.
The correct option is C. Nitrogen gas has the highest percentage by volume of all the gases that make up the air.
The composition of the air is as follows:
nitrogen = 78.09%
Oxygen = 20.95%
Argon = 0.93%
Carbon dioxide = 0.04%
water vapour = traces amount.
Formula for calculation of neutrons is Mass number - atomic number, here values are given. By putting values in formula 76-35= 41. Number of neutrons 41
I hope I am right on this, but the answer is
Fe₂O₃ + 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO₃
