Chemistry
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: A cold compress used by  athletes is an endothermic reaction.

Explanation:

A pack of cold compress used by athletes contains water that holds another bag or tube inside it which is filled with ammonium nitrate fertilizer.

So, on hitting the cold compress the tube breaks down due to which fertilizer gets mixed with water. This mixture absorbs the heat when placed on the area of body having pain, strain or bump.

As a result, we tend to feel cold at the affected area of our body.

Thus, we can conclude that a cold compress used by  athletes is an endothermic reaction.

(CH3)2N2H2 + N2O4 → N2 + H2O + CO2 + heat [balance?]​
Rasek [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

2(CH3)2N2H2 + 3N2O4 → 4N2 + 4H2O + 4CO2 + heat

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Balancing chemical equations involves putting coefficients on reactants and products.
  • This results in an equal number of atoms of each element on either side of the equation.
  • Balancing chemical equations ensures that the law of conservation of mass is obeyed.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants should be equal to the mass of products which is done by balancing chemical equations.
  • Putting the coefficients, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4 on the equation makes the equation balanced.
  • Therefore, the balanced equation would be;

       2(CH3)2N2H2 + 3N2O4 → 4N2 + 4H2O + 4CO2 + heat

After completing an experiment to determine gravimetrically the percentage of water in a hydrate, a student reported a value of
zzz [600]

Answer:

A. Strong initial heating caused some of the hydrate sample to spatter out of the crucible.

Explanation:

Hi

The percentage of water in the sample is lower than expected.

A. Strong initial heating caused some of the hydrate sample to spatter out of the crucible:

If part of the sample is splashed from the crucible the mass of water detected will be less.

B. The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating:

If the sample absorbs water after heating the percentage of water would be higher than expected.

C. The amount of the hydrate sample used was too small:

Depending on the sample size, different procedures can be chosen for analysis.

D. The crucible was not heated to constant mass before use:

In many occasions the crucible is heated next to the sample and not in previous form.

E. Excess heating caused the dehydration sample to decompose:

If the sample decomposes during heating, the analysis should be discarded.
