Answer:

HOPE IT HELPS...

Explanation:

When added to ice, salt first dissolves in the film of liquid water that is always present on the surface, thereby lowering its freezing point below the ices temperature. Ice in contact with salty water therefore melts, creating more liquid water, which dissolves more salt, thereby causing more ice to melt, and so on

What mass of ch4 is consumed when 587. 9 kj of energy is evolved from the combustion of a mixture of ch4(g) and o2(g)? show the
Juliette [100K]

The mass of CH₄ that is consumed is 10.598 g.

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

The enthalpy of a system is defined as the sum of the internal energy of a system and the energy that is produced due to its pressure and volume.

It is given by

H = U+PV

The following reaction takes place during the combustion of CH₄

CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

Energy evolved during the combustion, E = 587.9 kJ

Enthalpy of combustion of methane, ∆H = 890.3 kJ

No of moles of CH_4 =\frac{energy evolved}{enthalpy of combustion}

= 587.9 /890

Mass of CH₄  that is consumed = no of moles × molar mass of CH₄

  = 587.9 /890 × 16

   = 10.598 g

The mass of CH₄  which is consumed is 10.598 g

Write a balanced equation showing how this nucleus decays to form an α particle: thorium−230.
Ostrovityanka [42]
When   an  atomic  nucleus  emits  an  alpha  particle  it  decay  into  an atom   with atomic  number  2  less   and   mass number  4  less.  Thus  Thorium   230   decay    as  follows.

230 90Th  -------> 226  88Th  +  4 2 He

thorium  is  in  the  atomic  number   90  thus  it  during   alpha decay  it reduces  to  atomic  number  88  while  its  230   mass  number  reduces  to   226
