Correct answer: "A. Energy from an outside source is continuously being added."
An endothermic reaction is a reaction that is characterised by the system absorbing energy from its surroundings. That energy is usually in heat form. For example, when mixing water<span> with potassium chloride, this reaction will absorb heat and the container will feel cold - endothermic reaction.</span>
Answer:
HCN < HOCl < HF
Explanation:
The larger the Kₐ value, the stronger the acid.
6.2 × 10⁻¹⁰ < 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ < 6.3 × 10⁻⁴
HCN < HOCl < HF
weakest stronger strongest
There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia.
First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O
Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4
Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO
Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)
Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: <span>419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)
Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.
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.
