Why does a heating curve have horizontal plateaus at certain points during the heating process? What is happening at those points?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The reason is because of the direction the plateaus is, so this affects it in the degree of the end result

The balanced equation below represents a molecule of bromine separating into two bromine atoms.Br2-->Br + Br
What occurs during this change?
(1) Energy is absorbed and a bond is formed.
(2) Energy is absorbed and a bond is broken.
(3) Energy is released and a bond is formed.
(4) Energy is released and a bond is broken.

Answers

(4) Energy is released and a bond is broken. This happens because when the bromine molecule splits, the energy that was holding the two atoms together is released.

Answer is: (2) Energy is absorbed and a bond is broken.

This energy is called bond-dissociation energy.

Bond-dissociation energy is the measure of bond strength in a chemical bond.

Bond energy of bromine molecule (sigma bond) is energy needed for breaking up one molecule of bromine into two bromine atoms.

When two bromine atoms (Br) form molecule of bromine (Br₂), than energy is released and bond is formed.


In which sample is the average kinetic energy of the particles greatest?(1) 10. mL of HCl(aq) at 25°C
(2) 15 mL of HCl(aq) at 20.°C
(3) 10. mL of H2O(l) at 35°C
(4) 15 mL of H2O(l) at 30.°C

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is option 3.

Explanation: Average kinetic energy is defined as the energy of motion of the particles of a system. It is a measure of Kelvin Temperature.

Mathematically,

K=(3)/(2)(R)/(N_A)T

where,

K = kinetic energy of the molecules measured in joules.

R = Gas constant = 8.314Jmol^(-1)K^(-1)

N_A = Avogadro's number = 6.022* 10^(23)atoms/mol

T = Temperature in kelvins.

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature of the system.

\text{Kinetic energy}\propto \text{Temperature}

More the temperature, more will be the kinetic energy of the molecules.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The question asks about the average kinetic energy, so it is related only to temperature. Then the answer is (3) with the highest temperature.

In the reaction Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) H2 (g) + MgCl2 (aq), how many grams of hydrogen gas will be produced from 125.0 milliliters of a 6.0 M HCl in an excess of Mg?

Answers

The balanced reaction is: 

Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) = H2 (g) + MgCl2 (aq)

We are given the amount of  reactants to be reacted. This will be the starting point of the calculations.

.125 L HCl solution (6.0 mol HCl / L solution) ( 1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl ) ( 2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2 ) = 0.76 g H2

Which of the following solutions contains the greatest number of ions?. . 1) 200.0 mL of 0.10 M iron (III) chloride. 2) 800.mL of 0.10 M sucrose

Answers

The number of ions is determined by multiplying the given volume and the molarity of the solution. The product is multiplied to the number of ions when the solution dissociates. In this case:

1. 200.0 mL of 0.10 M iron (III) chloride = 0.2*0.1* 4 = 0.08
2. 
800.mL of 0.10 M sucrose = 0.8 * 0.1 * 1 = 0.08

The two solutions have the same number of ions. 

An ionic bond would most likely form between atoms of which of these pairs?A. oxygen and oxygen
B. magnesium and oxygen
C. magnesium and magnesium

Answers

Magnesium and oxygen would form an ionic bond because magnesium is a metal and oxygen is a nonmetal, and metals and nonmetals usually form ionic bonds.
