Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed and the change in enthalpy for the reaction is positive.
If we look at the reaction 2HgO + 45kcal ----> 2Hg + O2; we will notice that
i) 45kcal of energy was taken in (absorbed) for the reaction to occur
ii) The value of the reaction enthalpy is positive
For these two reasons, the reaction is an endothermic reaction as written.
Answer:
The final temperature of the system is 27.3°C.
Explanation:
Heat lost by aluminum = 3.99 × 0.91 × (100-T)
= 3.631 (100-T)
Heat gained by water = 10 × 4.184 × (T-21)
= 41.84 (T-21)
As,
Heat gained = Heat loss
or, 3.631(100-T) = 41.84(T-21)
or,363.1 - 3.631 T = 41.84 T - 878.64)
or, (41.84+ 3.631) T = 878.64 +363.1
or T= 
or, T = 27.3°C
Hence the final temperature is 27.3°C.
Number of moles = mass of product / molecular mass
=mass of product (MgO) / 40.3
Since the mass of MgO is not given in the question, the correct answer choice cannot be given. However, proceeding witht eh above formula will enable you to find the correct number of moles given the mass of MgO.
Answer: Rod X.
Explanation:
Ok, the electricity starts in the top left part. First, it must travel in the X rod, then it keeps traveling until it reaches the parallel path, and it can go to the Z rod, to the Y rod, or to both of them, and then it reaches the bulb (the circle with a X inside of it).
We know that two rods are conductors of electricity.
Now, suppose the case where rods Z and Y are the ones that conduct electricity, this means that X does not conduct electricity, then when the current reaches to X it stops (because X does not conduct) then the electricity never reaches the rods Z and Y, and then the electricity never reaches the bulb, but we know that the bulb lights up, so we must have that X is one of the conducting rods.
Then, if for example, Y does not conduct electricity, the electricity still can run through the Z rod and eventually reach the bulb.
So we can conclude that the rod that is definitely a conductor of electricity is rod X
