Answer: The activation energy is 10 kJ and the reaction is exothermic.
Explanation: Exothermic reactions are those in which heat is released and thus the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.
Endothermic reactions are those in which heat is absorbed and thus the energy of products is more than the energy of reactants.
Activation energy is the extra amount of energy required by the reactants to cross the energy barrier to convert to products.
Given : Energy of reactants = 40kJ
Energy of activation: (50-40)=10 kJ
Energy of products = 50 kJ
Energy of products = 15 kJ
Thus Energy of products (15kJ) < Energy of reactants(40kJ), the reaction is exothermic as energy has been lost to surroundings in the form of heat.
Answer : The correct option is B (clay, slit, sand).
Explanation :
Soil particles are of three types : Sand, Slit and clay. Most of the soils particles are made up of a combination of sand, slit and clay.
Particle size range of the sand = 2.00 -0.05 mm
Particle size range of the slit = 0.05 -0.002 mm
Particle size range of the sand = less than 0.002 mm
Sand is the largest soil particle, clay is the smallest soil particle and slit particle is present in between the sand & clay particle.
Therefore, the order from smaller to larger sediment particles is
Clay > Slit > Sand
