The question is missing a diagram of the ray reflection. I attached a diagram which comes from a similar question in the answer section. The full question should be as follows:
Two plane mirrors intersect at right angles. A laser beam strikes the first of them at a point d = 10.0cmfrom their point of intersection, as shown in the figure. For what angle of incidence at the first mirror will this ray strike the midpoint of the second mirror (which is s=29.0cm long) after reflecting from the first mirror?
Answer:
34.6°
Explanation:
To strike the midpoint of the second mirror, the ray light will have to travel half of the distance vertically
i.e. 29/2 = 14.5
We can solve this through trigonometry.
Let the angle between the ray and the vertical plane mirror is known as α
tan α = 10/14.5
α = = 34.6°
The angle of incidence is the angle between the ray and the normal line of the mirror.
Let angle of incidence of first mirror be β
β = α = 34.6
Answer : The change in enthalpy of the reaction is, -310 kJ
According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.
The given main reaction is,
The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,
(1)
(2)
(3)
Now we will reverse the reaction 1 and multiply reaction 1 by 2, reaction 2 by 2 and reaction 3 by 3 then adding all the equations, we get :
(1)
(2)
(3)
The expression for enthalpy of formation of will be,
Therefore, the change in enthalpy of the reaction is, -310 kJ
