Which balanced equation represents an endothermic reaction?(1) C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g)
(2) CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)
(3) N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
(4) N2(g) + O2(g) → 2NO(g)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

4)  N2(g) + O2(g) → 2NO(g)

Explanation:

In a chemical equation, the location of the word "heat" can be used to quickly determine whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic. If heat is released as a product of the reaction, the reaction is exothermic. If heat is listed on the side of the reactants, the reaction is endothermic.

However in the options given, heat was not mentioned. this means we would have to undergo elimination process.

Option 2 represents combustion of methane, heat is a natural by product of any combustion reaction. hence, the correct answer cannot be 2.

Option 1 - The C=O bonds in CO2 have a high bond energy (the energy you would need to break them) which is more than either of the C-C or O=O bonds in the elements and their sum. Thus to create C and O2 from CO2 you would have to put in energy to break the two C=O bonds. You would get some back from the C-C and O=O bonds but less. Thus you need to add a lot of energy to convert CO2 into its elements. (You can decompose it at high temperatures.)

The reverse process gives off heat. So again, the correct answer cannot be 1.

Option 3 - The heat of formation of H2 ( g ) and N2( gas) under the standard condition is zero ( 0), and heat of formation of NH3 ( g ) is -46.11 kj / mol, so for the formation of 2 moles of NH3( g ) it would be - 92.22 kj,

The -ve symbol is indicative of the above reaction is exothermic in nature. So again, the correct answer cannot be 3.

Our only option left is 4 - The standard enthalpy of formation of nitric oxide (NO) in the gas phase is about +90 kJ/mol, which is endothermic. The primary reason for this is that the nitrogen-nitrogen triple bond is very strong (941 kJ/mol). The energy cost to break that bond as well as the oxygen-oxygen double bond (495 kJ/mol) is not compensated by the forming of the nitrogen-oxygen double bond (607 kJ/mol). Endothermic reactions are the result of breaking strong bonds and forming weaker ones.

Answer 2
Answer: N2 (g) + O2 (g) ---» 2NO (g) represents an exothermic reaction.

The troposphere is warmed by the _____.energy of the entire solar system
incoming radiation of the sun
radiated heat from the Earth's surface
atmospheric air circulation
help plz

Answers

The correct answer to the question stated above is the third option which is: radiated heat from the Earth's surface.
The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere.
The troposphere is heated from below. Sunlight warms the ground or ocean, which in turn radiates the heat into the air right above it.
Therefore, the troposphere is warmed by the radiated heat from the Earth's surface.

Answer:

radiated heat from the Earth's surface

The practice of making operations "carbon neutral" is a way to offset whatever damage is being done to the environment due to greenhouse gas emissions by purchasing credits from "carbon-positive" projects to balance out emissions. True or false?

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect is the process whereby there is radiation from a atmosphere planet and the planet increase the temperature of the planet's surface to a temperature above normal.In this process the Earth's atmosphere becomes thicker with the influence substances such as gases

and the radiation coming from the sun is trapped, then the Earth becomes warmer. Green house effect is seen in global warming.

Carbon neutral can be described as a process of removing huge amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in order to achieve zero carbon neutrality.It is also reffered to as carbon neutrality, and this can be achieved by actions of organizations, businesses and individuals .

Carbon neutral can be achieved in two ways;

: 1.) Maintaining a balance between carbon dioxide emissions and carbon removal by means of the process called carbon offsetting

2 ) the process of removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in order to balance up emissions in another place.

Carbon positive is crucial to increase the positive influence of our daily activities on climate change and our resources.

while reduce the negative effect of our activities and business on evironment.

Therefore, the practice of making operations "carbon neutral" is a way to offset whatever damage is being done to the environment due to greenhouse gas emissions by purchasing credits from "carbon-positive" projects to balance out emissions is true because the harmful gasses that is been released to the atmosphere is balance up by the carbon neutral process hence the reduction in green house effect.
