Answer: 2800 calories
Explanation:
Latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat required to convert 1 mole of solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
Amount of heat required to fuse 1 gram of water = 80 cal
Mass of ice given = 35 gram
Heat required to fuse 1 g of ice at
= 80 cal
Thus Heat required to fuse 35 g of ice =
Thus 2800 calories of energy is required to melt 35 g ice cube
Answer:
e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.
Explanation:
- Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
- An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
- <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.
Hydrophilic - attracted to water
Hydrophobic - resists water
