Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products

Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products

There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.

A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20

Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen

B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3

Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg

Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components

Determine total H for bonds broken and formed, the overall change in H, and the final answer with units. Is it ENDOthermic or EX

Mrac [35]

E(Bonds broken) = 1371 kJ/mol reaction
E(Bonds formed) = 1852 kJ/mol reaction

ΔH = -481 kJ/mol.
The reaction is exothermic.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

2 H-H + O=O → 2 H-O-H

There are two moles of H-H bonds and one mole of O=O bonds in one mole of reactants. All of them will break in the reaction. That will absorb

E(Bonds broken) = 2 × 436 + 499 = 1371 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Breaking bonds) = +1371 kJ/mol

Each mole of the reaction will form two moles of water molecules. Each mole of H₂O molecules have two moles O-H bonds. Two moles of the molecule will have four moles of O-H bonds. Forming all those bond will release

E(Bonds formed) = 2 × 2 × 463 = 1852 kJ/mol reaction.
ΔH(Forming bonds) = - 1852 kJ/mol

Heat of the reaction:

$\Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = \Delta H(\text{Breaking bonds}) + \Delta H(\text{Forming bonds})\\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = +1371 + (-1852) \\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = -481 \; \text{kJ} / \text{mol}$

$\Delta H_{\text{rxn}}$ is negative. As a result, the reaction is exothermic.

Determine the electron geometry, molecular geometry and polarity of tecl6.

Delvig [45]

The electron geometry of TeCl6 is octahedral, while the molecular geometry is octahedral, non polar.
Octahedral geometry or six electron pairs is the basic geometry for a molecule containing a central atom with six pairs of electrons, such as TeCl6 or SF6. As we replace bonding pairs with non bonding pairs the molecular geometry changes to square pyramidal to square planar.

The chemical equation below shows the combustion of methane (CH4).

pishuonlain [190]

According to the chemical equation, the reaction ratio between O2 and CO2 is 2:1, which mean for every 2 moles of O2 reacted there is 1 mole of CO2 formed.

Use the molar mass and mass of O2 to find out the moles of O2: moles of O2 = mass of O2/molar mass of O2 = 8.94g/32.00g/mol = 0.2794 mole. Therefore, the moles of CO2 that formed is 0.2794moles/2 = 0.1397 mole

Use the moles and molar mass CO2 to find out the mass of CO2:
Mass of CO2 = moles of CO2 * molar mass of CO2 = 0.1397 mole * .44.01g/mole = 6.15 g.

So the answer is B 6.15g.
