A scientist is studying a chemical reaction. She predicts that after the reaction the product will have less chemical potential

energy than the reactants had originally. The scientist observes the reaction, and notes that no light or sound is produced. However, other observations support the scientist's prediction that the total chemical potential energy has decreased. DESCRIBE one observation that would support her prediction.

The reaction becomes warmer or hotter as it proceeds. This means that touching the container in which the reaction is taking place would feel hotter. This means the reaction dissipates heat energy and has a negative enthalpy. The reaction is written with  a negative delta- H in the products side for the reaction to be balanced.

What happens to the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter as the temperature of the sample is increased?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

  • <em>As the temperature of a sample of matter is increased, the average kinetic energy of the particles in the sample </em><u>increase</u><em>.</em>

Explanation:

The <em>temperature</em> of a substance is the measure of the <em>average kinetic energy </em>of its partilces.

The temperature, i.e. how hot or cold is a substance, is the result of the collisions of the particles (atoms or molecules) of matter.

The kinetic theory of gases states that, if the temperature is the same, the average kinetic energy of any gas is the same, regardless the gas and other conditions.

This equation expresses it:

  • Avg KE = (3/2) (R / N) T

Where Avg KE is the average kinetic energy, R is the universal constant of gases, N is Avogadro's constnat, and T is the temperature measure in absolute scale (Kelvin).

As you see, in that equation Avg KE is propotional to T, which means that as the temperature is increased, the average kinetic energy increases.

Calculate the number of moles of C2H6 in 6.29×1023 molecules of C2H6.
Kipish [7]

1.05moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of C₂H₆ = 6.29 x 10²³molecules

Unknown:

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

The mole is the amount of substances that contains Avogadro's number of particles i.e 6.02 x 10²³

 To find the number of moles:

  number of moles = \frac{number of particles}{Avogadro's number}

  number of moles = \frac{6.29 x 10^{23} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }

  number of moles = 1.05moles

What mineral has the least hardness according to the scale?
kenny6666 [7]
The softest mineral in the Mohs Hardness Scale is talc.
Talc is often used in baby powder and corn starch, among other things. Talc cleaves into thin sheets, and it is held together only by van de Waals bonds, which allows these sheets to slip past each other. This gives the mineral its softness and it is often valued as a high-temperature lubricant.
