Flura [38]2 years ago
7 0

Given what we know, the ability of water to absorb more heat than the other substances mentioned is a reflection of its high boiling point.

<h3>What do we mean by boiling point?</h3>

This is the temperature at which the substance boils, and subsequently evaporates. Having a higher boiling point means that the substance will be able to absorb much more heat than that of a substance with a lower boiling point.

Therefore, Water molecules have a higher boiling point than molecules of similar size, such as ammonia and methane, reflecting its capacity to absorb large amounts of heat.

A chemical equation does not give information about what
Lana71 [14]

A chemical equation does not give information about the following:

  • It usually does not give the "state of the substances". There are three states: Solid(s), liquid(q) and gas(vap).
  • The chemical equation does not show whether it is complete or incomplete.
  • The "speed of the reaction" is not mentioned.
  • The "concentration of the substance" whether it is diluted or concentrated is not mentioned.
  • The "rate of the reaction", temperature, catalyst, pressure etc is not mentioned. These can be mentioned "above or below the arrow".

ladessa [460]

<span>Answer is: activation energy of this reaction is 212,01975 kJ/mol.
Arrhenius equation: ln(k</span>₁/k₂) = Ea/R (1/T₂ - 1/T₁<span>).
k</span>₁<span> = 0,000643 1/s.
k</span>₂ = 0,00828 1/s.

T₁ = 622 K.

T₂ = 666 K.

R = 8,3145 J/Kmol.

1/T₁<span> = 1/622 K = 0,0016 1/K.
1/T</span>₂<span> = 1/666 K = 0,0015 1/K.
ln(0,000643/0,00828) = Ea/8,3145 J/Kmol · (-0,0001 1/K).
-2,55 = Ea/8,3145 J/Kmol · (-0,0001 1/K).
Ea = 212019,75 J/mol = 212,01975 kJ/mol.</span>

A K+ ion is similar to a Cl– ion in that they both have the same A) nuclear charge B) number of electrons C) atomic number D) nu
pshichka [43]

Answer:

B) number of electrons

Explanation:

The two species:

          K+   and Cl- have the same number of electrons.

A neutral atom of K has 19 electrons

A neutral atom of Cl has 17 electrons

Now,

 To form K+, K will have to lose an electron and then the number of electrons becomes 18

To form Cl-, Cl will have to gain an electrons and then the number of electrons becomes 18

So, therefore, the number of electrons on both species is 18
