It is exothermic because heat needs to be released by the reactants to form the products.

<h3>Splitting of water molecules</h3>

Water molecule is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. That is H2O.

An exothermic reaction is the reaction in which energy, in the form of heat, is released into the environment. Some examples of exothermic reaction are:

  • Splitting of water molecules

  • Rusting of iron and

  • Burning of sugar.

Splitting of water molecule involves a process called thermal dissociation reaction which uses high temperature to split water molecules into its two components such as hydrogen and oxygen.

Here, the reactants absorbs the heat which is needed to form the products.

If a 500 ml sample of water contains 2.6 x 10-6 g of iron, what is the concentration of iron in ppb?
Anastasy [175]

The concentration of iron in ppb is 5.2 ppb

In atmospheric chemistry, PPM( parts per million) and PPB( parts per billion) units are used to express the concentration of gases. PPB stands for parts per billion, while PPM stands for parts of gas per million parts of air.

2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams of iron in 500 ml of water.

Now, converting milliliter into liter:

500 mL = 500 mL × ( 1L / 1000 mL ) = 0.5 L

Now for ppm, mass must be in mg.

2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams = 2.6 × 10⁻⁶ grams × ( 1000 mg / 1 grams ) = 2.6 × 10⁻³ mg

Then, the concentration of iron in ppm will be:

2.6 × 10⁻³ mg / 0.5 L = 5.2 × 10⁻³ ppm

Now, 1 ppm = 1000 ppb

Therefore,

5.2 × 10⁻³ ppm × 10³ = 5.2 ppb

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) readily decomposes to form water and oxygen gas: 2H2O2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g) What concentration of hydr
Anastaziya [24]

Hydrogen peroxide is a powerful oxidizer. When exposed to sunlight it quickly decomposes to form water and oxygen as given by the following equation.

2H2O2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g)

Hydrogen peroxide is commercially available as a 30% w/w solution, which is the concentration that would facilitate the above reaction. This implies that the concentration would be 30 g of H2O2 in 100 g of the solution.
