What term best defines the process that occurs when nuclei combine to produce a nucleus with more mass?

I just answered your other question and wrote all the definitions of the terms. I would say this is probably refering to Fusion because you are fusing together more nuclei into one nucleus. Fusion= bringing separate things into one entity.

Find the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene, C2H4(g), given the following data: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) --> 2CO2(g) + 2 H2O

Brums [2.3K]

Answer : The standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

Explanation :

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 formation reaction of $C_2H_4$ will be,

$2C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)$ $\Delta H_{formation}=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) $C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_1=-1411kJ$

(2) $C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)$ $\Delta H_2=-393.5kJ$

(3) $H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_3=-285.8kJ$

Now we will reverse the reaction 1, multiply reaction 2 and 3 by 2 then adding all the equation, we get :

(1) $2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)$ $\Delta H_1=+1411kJ$

(2) $2C(s)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)$ $\Delta H_2=2\times (-393.5kJ)=-787kJ$

(3) $2H_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_3=2\times (-285.8kJ)=-571.6kJ$

The expression for enthalpy of formation of $C_2H_4$ will be,

$\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3$

$\Delta H=(+1411kJ)+(-787kJ)+(-571.6kJ)$

$\Delta H=52.4kJ$

Therefore, the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

You are given two aqueous solutions with different ionic solutes (Solution A and Solution B). What if you are told that Solution

klio [65]

Answer:

Yes, it is possible. Let us consider an example of two solutions, that is, solution A having 20 percent mass RbCl (rubidium chloride) and solution B is having 15 percent by mass NaCl or sodium chloride.

It is found that solution A is having more concentration in comparison to solution B in terms of mass percent. The formula for mass percent is,

% by mass = mass of solute/mass of solution * 100

Now the formula for molality is,

Molality = weight of solute/molecular weight of solute * 1000/ weight of solvent in grams

Now molality of solution A is,

m = 20/121 * 1000/80 (molecular weight of RbCl is 121 grams per mole)

m = 2.07

Now the molality of solution B is,

m = 15/58.5 * 1000/85

m = 3.02

Therefore, in terms of molality, the solution B is having greater concentration (3.02) in comparison to solution A (2.07).

The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always:_________

sattari [20]

Answer: The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

Explanation:

Electrolytic cells use electric currents to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward.

Relation of standard free energy change and emf of cell

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^0_{cell}$

where,

$\Delta G^o$ = standard free energy change

n= no of electrons gained or lost

F= faraday's constant

$E^0_{cell}$ = standard emf

$E^0_{cell}$ = standard emf = -ve , for non spontaneous reaction

Thus $\Delta G^o=(-ve)(-ve)=+ve$

Thus standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.
