Because room temperature is below the ignition temperature of petrol. At this temperature energy in the form of heat, flame, or electric spark is needed to start the reaction.

What is equal to the number of particles in 36 grams of carbon-12?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will  use the Avogadro numbers.

The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance.  According to this,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole =  6.022×10²³  atoms.

18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

we are given 36 g of C-12. So,

12 g of C-12 = 1 mole

24 g of C-12 =  2 mole

36 g of C-12 = 3 mole

So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.

The heat of vaporization of water at 100°c is 40.66 kj/mol. Calculate the quantity of heat that is absorbed/released when 9.00 g
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.

Explanation:

Heat is being consumed during vaporization and heat is being released during condensation.

To vaporize 1 mol of water, 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Hence, to vaporize 18.02 g of water , 40.66 kJ of heat is being consumed.

So, to vaporize 9.00 g of water, (\frac{40.66}{18.02}\times 9.00)kJ of heat or 20.3 kJ of heat is being consumed

As condensation is a reverse process of vaporization therefore 20.3 kJ of heat is absorbed when 9.00 g of steam condenses to liquid water.

The electronegativity of nitrogen (n) is 3.0, while the electronegativity of hydrogen (h) is 2.1. knowing this, consider how the
Goryan [66]

The electronegativity of nitrogen (N) is 3.0, while the electronegativity of hydrogen (H) is 2.1. As it can be seen that nitrogen (N) is more electronegative than that of hydrogen (H),  

So electron pairs are attracted towards nitrogen and thus it carries a partial negative charge and hydrogen carries a partial positive charge. The image of electron distribution is attached as follows.

Thus NH₃ is a polar molecule .

When 1 mole of carbon is burned, carbon dioxide is produced, and 393 kilojoules (kJ) of energy are released. If this reaction is
EleoNora [17]
The energy of 393 kJ is released as heat.  Then, the container will experience an increase of temperature and, given that it is sealed, also an increase of pressure.

The increase of temperature results from the heat developed during the reaction.

The increase of pressure results from the fact that that the solid carbon will become gaseuos carbon dioxide. This gas will occupy a larger volume than the solid carbon and also this elevation of the temperature will make the pressure of the gas inside the container increase.
