Answer:

C extended structure

Explanation:

Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are fibers about 5 to 10 micrometers (0.00020–0.00039 in) in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. Carbon fibers have several advantages including high stiffness, high tensile strength, low weight, high chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance and low thermal expansion. These properties have made carbon fiber very popular in aerospace, civil engineering, military, and motorsports, along with other competition sports. However, they are relatively expensive when compared with similar fibers, such as glass fibers or plastic fibers.

What is the total energy change for the following reaction:CO+H2O-CO2+H2

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{-41.2 kJ/mol}}$

Explanation:

Balanced equation: CO(g) + H₂O(g) ⟶ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

We can calculate the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products

$\Delta_{\text{rxn}}H^{\circ} = \sum \left( \Delta_{\text{f}} H^{\circ} \text{products}\right) - \sum \left (\Delta_{\text{f}}H^{\circ} \text{reactants} \right)$

(a) Enthalpies of formation of reactants and products

$\begin{array}{cc}\textbf{Substance} & \textbf{$\Delta_{\text{f}}$H/(kJ/mol}) \\\text{CO(g)} & -110.5 \\\text{H$_{2}$O} & -241.8\\\text{CO$_{2}$(g)} & -393.5 \\\text{H$_{2}$(g)} & 0 \\\end{array}$

(b) Total enthalpies of reactants and products

$\begin{array}{ccr}\textbf{Substance} & \textbf{Contribution)/(kJ/mol})&\textbf{Sum} \\\text{CO(g)} & -110.5& -110.5 \\\text{H$_{2}$O(g)} &-241.8& -241.8\\\textbf{Total}&\textbf{for reactants} &\mathbf{ -352.3}\\&&\\\text{CO}_{2}(g) & -393.5&-393.5 \\\text{H}_{2} & 0 & 0\\\textbf{Total}&\textbf{for products} & \mathbf{-393.5}\end{array}$

(c) Enthalpy of reaction $\Delta_{\text{rxn}}H^{\circ} = \sum \left( \Delta_{\text{f}} H^{\circ} \text{products}\right) - \sum \left (\Delta_{\text{f}}H^{\circ} \text{reactants} \right)= \text{-393.5 kJ/mol - (-352.3 kJ/mol}\\= \text{-393.5 kJ/mol + 352.3 kJ/mol} = \textbf{-41.2 kJ/mol}\\ \text{The total enthalpy change is $\large \boxed{\textbf{-41.2 kJ/mol}}$}$

Describe El Niño and La Niña in your own words.

Nookie1986 [14]

El Niño refers to the above-average sea-surface temperatures that periodically develop across the east-central equatorial Pacific. It represents the warm phase of the ENSO cycle. La Niña refers to the periodic cooling of sea-surface temperatures across the east-central equatorial Pacific.
