The constant used for the absorption of heat by the sample in melting is +\Delta H_{fus}.  Thus, option A is correct.

The chemical reaction has been defined as the energy in which the energy has been released or absorbed for the breaking of bonds in the reactants and the formation of product.

<h3>Constant for energy absorbed</h3>

The energy has been absorbed in the melting of the copper sample. Thus, the sample has been converted from the solid to the liquid state.

The change in energy with the conversion in solid and liquid state has been termed as heat of fusion.

The energy has been absorbed by the system, thus it has been marked with the positive sign.

Therefore, +\Delta H_{fus} has been the constant used for the absorption of heat by the sample in melting. Thus, option A is correct.

<span>The first method to determine the chemical composition of a substance in space was using light. By determining red shift in the observed spectrum of light they could determine the elements they were observing. Different elements change the way light behaves and from this scientists can determine the makeup of things such as stars and nebulas.</span>

Explain the three forces at work that hold an atom together.
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Electromagnetic force, Strong nuclear force, and Weak nuclear force.

Explanation:
Forces acting

electromagnetic force, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force. The electromagnetic force keeps the electrons attached to the atom. The strong nuclear force keeps the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus. The weak nuclear force controls how the atom decays.

Which metals may be oxidized by H+ under standard-state conditions? Ag+(aq) + e– → Ag(s) E° = 0.80 V Cu2+(aq) + 2e– → Cu(s) E° =
Debora [2.8K]
Answer is: tin and zinc, because they standard potential as less than zero.
Tin and zinc are oxidized to tin and zinc cations (with +2 charge) and hydrogen anions are reduced to hydrogen molecules with neutral charge.
Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻; 2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂.
<span>Oxidation is increase of oxidation number  and reduction is decrease of oxidation number.</span>

Use the following reaction: C4H9OH NaBr H2SO4 C4H9Br NaHSO4 H2O If 15.0 g of C4H9OH react with 22.4 g of NaBr and 32.7 g of H2SO
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Percent yield = 61.58%

Explanation:

C4H9OH + NaBr + H2SO4 --> C4H9Br + NaHSO4 + H2O

From the reaction;

1  mol of C4H9OH reacts with 1 mol of NaBr and 1 mol of H2SO4 to form 1 mol of  C4H9Br

We have to obtain the limiting reagent. We do this by calculatig the mols of each reactant in the reaction;

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass

C4H9OH; 15 / 74g/mol = 0.2027

NaBr; 22.4 / 102.89 = 0.2177

H2SO4; 32.7 / 98 = 0.3336

In this case, the limiting reagent is C4H9OH, it determines the amount of product formed.

From the stoichometry of the reaction; one mole of C4H9OH forms one mole of C4H9Br. This means 0.2027 mol of C4H9Br was formed.

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass of C4H9Br formed = 0.2027 * 137

Mass = 27.77g

Percent yield =  (Practical yield /  theoretical yeield ) * 100%

Percent Yield = 17.1 / 27.77 * 100

Percent yield = 61.58%
