Properties of matter can be broadly classified into two categories:
-Physical properties, these usually involve a change in the state of matter
-Chemical properties. these involve a change in the chemical composition of matter.
Now, physical properties can be further classified as:
Extensive: these depend on the amount of the substance, eg: mass, volume
Intensive: these do not depend on the amount of the substance eg: density, color, melting point, boiling point
A physical property that does not describe a change in state is color. For example: copper sulfate is a compound which is a blue in color. Thus, color provides information which describes the appearance of matter. In contrast, properties like melting or boiling point suggests a change in the state of the substance.
Its on Google..."The group number of a representative element in the periodic table is related to the number of valence electrons it has. ... Elements of the halogen family lose one electron to become halide ions."
<u>Answer:</u> The 
for the reaction is 51.8 kJ.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.
The chemical equation for the reaction of carbon and water follows:
The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:
(1) 
( × 2)
(2) 
( × 2)
(3) 
The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[2\times \Delta H_1]+[2\times \Delta H_2]+[1\times (-\Delta H_3)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B2%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_1%5D%2B%5B2%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_2%5D%2B%5B1%5Ctimes%20%28-%5CDelta%20H_3%29%5D)
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(2\times (-393.7))+(2\times (-285.9))+(1\times -(-1411))]=51.8kJ](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%28-393.7%29%29%2B%282%5Ctimes%20%28-285.9%29%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20-%28-1411%29%29%5D%3D51.8kJ)
Hence, the for the reaction is 51.8 kJ.
Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
A) Yes. The reaction reaches equilibrium when the rate of reaction of the reverse reaction is equal to the rate of the forward reaction , then the only cause for the reverse reaction to be favoured is that the initial rate of the reverse was greater than the forward one.
B) No. The rate constant of the reverse reaction can be greater than the forward one but the rate also depends on concentrations, thus a reverse reaction with greater rate constant can result in the net reaction proceeding in the forward reaction, the reverse reaction or be at equilibrium depending on the concentrations or reactants and products
C) No. A lower activation energy means a higher rate constant , but a higher rate constant does not mean that the net reaction will proceed to the reactants ( see point B)
D) No. The energy changes determine conditions under thermodynamic equilibrium and therefore the net direction of the reaction will depend on the temperature and concentrations of reactants and products with respect to the equilibrium conditions.
The balanced chemical reaction is:
<span>2 I2 + KIO3 + 6 HCl ---------> 5 ICl + KCl + 3 H2O
</span>
We are given the amount of the product to be produced from the reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculations.
28.6 g ICl (1 mol / 162.35 g ICl ) ( 2 mol I2 / 5 mol ICl ) ( 253.81 g I2 / 1 mol I2 ) = 17.88 g I2
