For this problem, we use the Hess' Law.

ΔHrxn = ∑(ν*Hf of products) - ∑(ν*Hf of reactants)

The ν represents the corresponding stoichiometric coefficients of the substances, while Hf is the heat of formation. For pure elements, Hf = 0.

Hf of Al₂O₃ = <span>−1676.4 kJ/mol
</span>Hf of Fe₂O₃ = <span>-826.0 kJ/mol

Thus,

</span>ΔHrxn = 1*−1676.4 kJ/mol + 1*-826.0 kJ/mol
<em>ΔHrxn = -2502.4 kJ/mol</em>

The total charge of an atom comes from
Rus_ich [418]

The total charge on an atom comes from protons and electrons.

The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged. A neutral atom would have an equal number of protons and electrons.

An atom with more protons than electrons will be positively charged while those with more electrons than protons will be negatively charged.

Determine whether a gas sample was composed of hydrogen or oxygen.
Nuetrik [128]
The test for this is fairly simple.
We take a glowing match or splint near the gas sample, if the glow intensifies, oxygen is present. 
If a lit splint or match goes out with a popping sound, this means that hydrogen is present.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Expert Verified

Explanation:

For short duration: ... When excess of carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water then the white precipitate calcium carbonate formed first dissolves due to the formation of a soluble salt calcium hydrogen carbonate (Ca(HCO3)2, and the Solution becomes clear again
