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.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

D. Sr < Ca < Be  

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Ionization energ</em>y decreases from top to bottom within a Group, because the valence electrons are further from the nucleus and therefore easier to remove.

Thus, <em>Sr has the lowest</em> ionization energy and <em>Be the highes</em>t.

The correct order is Sr < Ca < Be.

How did the masses of objects affect the strength of gravity
omeli [17]

Answer:

the strength of gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors,mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. if one of the masses is doubled, the Force of gravity between the object is doubled. increases the force of gravity decreases.

Choose all of the following mole ratios that are correct for the reaction given below. Be sure to choose all that apply.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N2 + 3H2 —> 2NH3

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of N2 reacted with 3 moles of H2 to produce 2 moles of NH3.

Thus, we can say that:

1 mole of N2 = 3 moles of H2

1 mole of N2 = 2 moles of NH3

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3

Thus, considering the options given above, the right answers to the question are:

2 moles NH3 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 1 mole of N2

3 moles of H2 = 2 moles of NH3
