There are a lot of good study sets on Quizlet. type in one of your questions and there is a good chance that a set has all of the required information to know for your Chemistry SOL. Good Luck!
Answer:
A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ exothermic
B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) exothermic
C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) endothermic
D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) exothermic
Explanation:
The question says predict not calculate. So you have to use your chemistry knowledge, experience and intuition.
A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ is exothermic because the Haber process gives out energy
B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) is exothermic because it is a combustion. The majority, if not all, combustion give out energy.
C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) is endothermic because it is the reverse reaction of the combustion of hydrogen. If the reverse reaction is exothermic then the forward reaction is endothermic
D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) is exothermic because the backward reaction is endothermic. Atomisation is always an endothermic reaction so the forward reaction is exothermic
<u>Answer:</u> The outermost valence electron enters the p orbital.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Valence electrons are defined as the electrons which are present in outer most orbital of an atom.
Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having 16 electrons.
Electronic configuration of sulfur atom is 
The number of valence electrons are 2 + 4 = 6
These 6 electrons enter s-orbital and p-orbital but the outermost valence electron will enter the p-orbital.
Hence, the outermost valence electron enters p orbital.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Activation energy or free energy of a transition state is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to by reactant molecules to undergo a chemical reaction.
So, when activation energy is decreased then molecules with lesser amount of energy can also participate in the reaction. This leads to an increase in rate of reaction.
Also, increase in temperature will help in increasing the rate of reaction.
Whereas at a given temperature, every molecule will have different energy because every molecule travels at different speed.
Hence, we can conclude that out of the given options false statement is that at a given temperature and time all molecules in a solution or a sample will have the same energy.
