Answer:
After Eris was discovered, they had to decide whether Eris was a planet or not. If they decided it wasn't a planet, they had to also decide whether Pluto should be counted as a planet since Eris and Pluto were quite similar. They were the same size, and they were both part of the Kuiper Belt.
Explanation:
Answer:
First of all, the equation is typed wrong so it can easily be misinterpreted
Ethane (CH4) + Oxygen gas (O2) would give us Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and WATER (H2O)
CH4 + 2O2 -----> CO2 + 2H2O
And this is a combustion reaction since we have oxygen as a reactant and carbon dioxide and water as products.
Answer : Right
Explanation : The direction of reaction tends to proceed on right side under standard conditions; If the change in standard free energy ΔG for a particular reaction is negative. Also if the elements in their most stable forms as they exist under standard conditions. Then ΔG determines the direction and extent of chemical change. But under standard conditions the direction of the reaction will be to right.
Answer:
Enthalpy of vaporization = 30.8 kj/mol
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of benzene = 95.0 g
Heat evolved = 37.5 KJ
Enthalpy of vaporization = ?
Solution:
Molar mass of benzene = 78 g/mol
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 95 g/ 78 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.218 mol
Enthalpy of vaporization = 37.5 KJ/1.218 mol
Enthalpy of vaporization = 30.8 kj/mol
When the products of a reaction are hotter than the reactants, an exothermic reaction is happening. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy to the surroundings. The energy released should be more than what is absorbed in order to maintain the reaction.
