Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

A mountain climber at the peak of a mountain has potential energy.

The potential energy of a body is stored energy in a body. It is function of mass and position of the body.

Mathematically;

P.E = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

The definition of heat transfer through convection involves the movement of a fluid that causes heat to move away from a hear source. That being said, convection can take place in a lake, air inside, and air outside since both liquids and gasses are considered to be fluids. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Part a use these data to calculate the heat of hydrogenation of buta-1,3-diene to butane. c4h6(g)+2h2(g)→c4h10(g)

Reptile [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The heat of hydrogenation of the reaction is coming out to be 234.2 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as $\Delta H$

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_{(reactant)}]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$C_4H_6(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_4H_{10}(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H_{(C_4H_{10})})]-[(1\times \Delta H_{(C_4H_6)})+(2\times \Delta H_{(H_2)})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H_{(C_4H_{10})}=-2877.6kJ/mol\\\Delta H_{(C_4H_6)}=-2540.2kJ/mol\\\Delta H_{(H_2)}=-285.8kJ/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(1\times (-2877.6))]-[(1\times (-2540.2))+(2\times (-285.8))]\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=234.2J$

Hence, the heat of hydrogenation of the reaction is coming out to be 234.2 kJ.

The equilibrium constant for the gas phase reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO (g) is Keq = 4.20 ⋅ 10-31 at 30 °C. At equilibrium, __

pychu [463]

Answer:

At equilibrium, reactants predominate.

Explanation:

For every reaction, the equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio between the concentration of products and reactants. Thus, for the reaction N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇌ 2NO the expression of its equilibrium constant is:

$Keq = \frac{[NO]^{2}}{[O_{2} ][N_{2}]}$

Since the equilibrium constant is Keq = 4.20x10-31 the concentration of reactants O2 and N2 must be much higher than products to obtain such a small number as 4.20x10-31 at the equilibrium. Hence, at equilibrium reactants predominate.
