Answer:

The relative densities of an object and the liquid it is placed in determine whether that object will sink or float. An object that has a higher density than the liquid it's in will sink. An object that has a lower density than the liquid it's in will float.

Explanation:

Hope it helps!

Which property is true for metals

san4es73 [151]

most metals conduct electricity and are very dull to the look. most metals are toxic if eaten and are hard.

aluminum is a type of metal they is softer than the opther and conducts eletricty like a boss.

nickel on the opther hand is also a metal but does not conduct a lot of electricy.

metals can be bent and others can break,

N₂O(g) + 3 H₂(g) N₂H4(1) + H₂O(1) AH = -317 kJ/mol

docker41 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Recall that Δ<em>H</em> is the sum of the heats of formation of the products minus the heat of formation of the reactants multiplied by their respective coefficients. That is:

$\displaystyle \Delta H^\circ_{rxn} = \sum \Delta H^\circ_{f} \left(\text{Products}\right) - \sum \Delta H^\circ_{f} \left(\text{Reactants}\right)$

Therefore, from the chemical equation, we have that:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (-317\text{ kJ/mol}) = \left[\Delta H^\circ_f \text{ N$_2$H$_4$} + \Delta H^\circ_f \text{ H$_2$O} \right] -\left[3 \Delta H^\circ_f \text{ H$_2$}+\Delta H^\circ_f \text{ N$_2$O}\right] \end{aligned}$

Remember that the heat of formation of pure elements (e.g. H₂) are zero. Substitute in known values and solve for hydrazine:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (-317\text{ kJ/mol}) & = \left[ \Delta H^\circ _f \text{ N$_2$H$_4$} + (-285.8\text{ kJ/mol})\right] -\left[ 3(0) + (82.1\text{ kJ/mol})\right] \\ \\ \Delta H^\circ _f \text{ N$_2$H$_4$} & = (-317 + 285.8 + 82.1)\text{ kJ/mol} \\ \\ & = 50.9\text{ kJ/mol} \end{aligned}$

In conclusion, our answer is A.
