Answer:

Unbalanced

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

The given reaction flouts the law of conservation of mass and it is not balanced. To know a reaction that is balanced, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression must be the same;

Number of moles

Reactants Products

Hydrogen 2 4

Oxygen 2 2

We see that the hydrogen atoms are not balanced.

Which unit can be used to express the concentration of a solution?

exis [7]

Answer: (3) ppm

Explanation: Concentration is defined as the amount of solute dissolved in a known amount of the solvent or a solution.

Parts per million (ppm) is used to express the concentration when a very small quantity of solute is present in a large quantity of the solution. It is defined as the mass of solute present in one milion $(10^6)$ parts by mass of the solution.

$ppm=\frac{\text {mass of Solute}}{\text {Mass of solution}}\times 10^6$

L/s is used to express flow rate.

J/g is used to express energy per unit mass.

kPa is used to express pressure.

Calculate the values of ΔU, ΔH, and ΔS for the following process:

ladessa [460]

Answer:

ΔU = 45.814 KJ

ΔH = 46.4375 KJ

ΔS = 18.76 J/K

Explanation:

H2O(l) → H2O(l) → H2O(steam)

298.15K, 1atm ΔHp 373.15K,1atm ΔHv 373.15K,1 atm

∴ ΔHp = Qp = nCpΔT

∴ n H2O = 1 mol

∴ Cp,n = 75.3 J/mol.K

∴ ΔT = 373.25 - 298.15 = 75 K

⇒ Qp = (1 mol)*(75.3 J/mol.K)*(75K) = 5647.5 J

⇒ ΔHp = 5647.5 J = 5.6475 KJ

⇒ ΔH = ΔHp + ΔHv

∴ ΔHv = 40.79 KJ/mol * 1 mol = 40.79 KJ

⇒ ΔH = 5.6475 KJ + 40.79 KJ = 46.4375 KJ

ideal gas:

∴ ΔH = ΔU + PΔV

∴ V1 = nRT1/P1 = ((1)*(0.082)*(298.15))/1 = 24.45 L

∴ V2 = nRT2/P2 = ((1)*(0.082)*(373.15))/ 1 = 30.59 L

⇒ ΔV = V2 - V1 = 6.15 L * (m³/1000L) = 6.15 E-3 m³

∴ P = 1 atm * (Pa/ 9.86923 E-6 atm) = 101325.027 Pa

⇒ ΔU = ΔH - PΔV = 46.4375 KJ - ((101325.027 Pa*6.15 E-3m³)*(KJ/1000J))

⇒ ΔU = 46.4375 KJ - 0.623 KJ

⇒ ΔU = 45.814 KJ

∴ ΔS = Cv,n Ln (T2/T1) + nR Ln (V2/V1)

⇒ ΔS = (75.3) Ln(373.15/298.15) + (1)*(8.314) Ln (30.59/24.45)

⇒ ΔS = 16.896 J/K + 1.863 J/K

⇒ ΔS = 18.76 J/K

The combining of atoms is known as nuclear fusion. true false

dimulka [17.4K]

True, nuclear fusion is a reaction in which multiple atoms come in contact to form new atom and subatomic particles. in a nuclear fusion, some of the mass is lost which defies the law of conservation of mass, but according to scientist the lost in mass is manifested in the production of huge amount of energy,
