I think the correct answer would be <span>requires energy as heat. From the Le Chatelier's principle, when a reaction needs energy to react, increasing the temperature would favor the reaction. This is called an endothermic reaction. Hope this answers the question.</span>
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:
<span>2K + F2 ---> 2 KF
We are given the amount of potassium metal to be used in the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculation. We do as follows:
23.5 g K ( 1 mol / 39.1 g ) ( 1 mol F2/2 mol K ) ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 13.46 L F2

Answer:
51 J
Explanation:
The air inside a bicycle tire pump has 27 joules of heat conducted away. By convention, when heat is released, it takes the negative sign, so Q = -27 J.
77.9 joules of work done are being done on the air inside a bicycle tire pump. By convention, when work is being done on the system, it takes the positive sign, so W = 77.9 J
We can calculate the change in the internal energy (ΔU) using the following expression.
ΔU = Q + W
ΔU = (-27 J) + 77.9 J
ΔU = 51 J
B. The rate of particle collisions increased with a higher temperature.
An <em>inference </em>is a guess that you make <em>based on an observation</em>. You can’t see the particles, so you are guessing (a) that they exist and (b) that the rate of their collisions increases with a higher temperature.
A, C, and D are all incorrect because they are <em>observations</em> that you make.
