Answer:
a mixture is a material made up of two or more different substances which are physically combined.
H2(g) +C2H4(g)→C2H6(g)
H-H +H2C =CH2→H3C-Ch3
2C -H bonds and one C-C bond are formed while enthalpy change (dH) of the reaction,
H-H: 432kJ/mol
C=C: 614kJ/mol
C-C: 413 kJ/mol
C-C: 347 kJ/mol
dH is equal to sum of the energies released during the formation of new bonds or negative sign, and sum of energies required to break old bonds or positive sign.
The bond which breaks energy is positive.
432+614 =1046kJ/mol
Formation of bond energy is negative
2(413) + 347 = 1173 kJ/mol
dH reaction is -1173 + 1046 =-127kJ/mol
Answer:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
Explanation:
HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2
The equation can be balance as follow:
Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2
Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now the equation is balanced.
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
Continental drift is the movement of Earth’s continents over long periods of time. An evidence for this is that some continents look like puzzle pieces that can fit together, such as South America and Africa. Another evidence is that fossils of the same type have been found in different continents, far apart - suggesting that the two continents once were joined. Another evidence is that identical rocks were found at both sides of the Atlantic Ocean by Alfred Wegener, the main developer of the continents drift theory.
