Answer:
The answer is D
Explanation:
(2) an isotope (4) a compound
Any substance composed of two or more elements that are chemically combined in a fixed proportion is known as a Compound. Thus, it's D.
Elements may be defined as any substance that cannot be disintegrated into more superficial substances by standard chemical processes.
In chemistry, an isomer may be defined as those molecules which the same molecular formulas, but different arrangements of atoms.
An Isotope may be defined as an atom that bears the same atomic number and chemical identities but possesses a different atomic mass.
A solution may be defined as a homogeneous mixture of one or more solutes disbanded in a specific solvent.
Therefore, the correct option for this question is D.

Answer:
-909.3KJ/mole
Explanation:
The heat of reaction is accessible from the heat of formation of reactants and products using the formula below:
ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants
Before we proceed, it is important to know that the enthalpy of formation of element is zero ,be it a single element or a molecule of an element.
From the reaction for the formation of sulphuric acid, we know we need to know the heat of formation of sulphur (vi) oxide and water. The examiner is quite generous and have us for water already.
Now we need to calculate for sulphur (vi) oxide. This is calculated as follows:
We first calculate for sulphur(iv)oxide. This can be obtained from the reaction between sulphur and oxygen. The calculation goes thus:
ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants
ΔH = [ 1 mole suphur(iv) oxide × x] - [ (1 mole of elemental sulphur × 0) + (1 mole of elemental oxygen × 0]
We were already told this is equal to -296.8KJ. Hence the heat of formation of sulphur(iv) oxide is -296.8KJ.
We then proceed to the second stage.
Now, here we have 1 mole sulphur (iv) oxide reacting with 0.5 mole oxygen molecule.
We go again :
ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants
ΔH = [ 1 mole of sulphur (vi) oxide × y] - [ (1 mole of sulphur (iv) oxide × -296.8) + (0.5 mole of oxygen × 0)].
We already know that the ΔH here equals -98.9KJ.
Hence, -98.9 = y + 296.8
y = -296.8KJ - 98.9KJ = -395.7KJ
We now proceed to the final part of the calculation which ironically comes first in the series of sentences.
Now, we want to calculate the standard heat of formation for sulphuric acid. From the reaction, we can see that one mole of sulphur (vi) oxide, reacted with one mole of water to yield one mole of sulphuric acid.
Mathematically, we go again :
ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants
ΔH = [ 1 mole of sulphuric acid × z] - [( 1 mole of sulphur vi oxide × -395.7) + ( 1 mole of water × -285.8)].
Now, we know that the ΔH for this particular reaction is -227.8KJ
We then proceed to to open the bracket.
-227.8 = z - (-395.7 - 285.8)
-227.8 = z - ( -681.5)
-227.8 = z + 681.5
z = -227.8-681.5 = -909.3KJ
Hence, ΔH∘f for sulphuric acid is -909.3KJ/mol
(2) It requires an external energy source.
(3) It uses radioactive nuclides.
(4) It undergoes a spontaneous redox reaction.
b. limited life.
c. difficulty in raising capital.
d. double taxation of the corporation s income and of dividends paid to shareholders.
Option D. A major disadvantage of a corporation is double taxation of the corporation's income and dividends paid to shareholders.
A major disadvantage of a corporation is the double taxation of the corporation's income and dividends paid to shareholders. This means that not only is the corporation subject to income tax on its profits but the dividends distributed to shareholders are also taxed as the shareholders' personal income. This results in a higher overall tax burden for shareholders, making it a major disadvantage of a corporation.
