Answer:

A Calorimeter is a device used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.

Explanation:

Ex- when an exothermic reaction ( accompanied by or requiring absorption of heat)occurs in solution in a calorimeter, the heat produced by the reaction is absorbed by the solution increasing its temperature.

   - When an endothermic reaction (Heat evolving reaction) occurs, the heat required is absorbed from the thermal energy of the solution, decreasing its temperature.

A burning piece of coal which is releasing heat due to its combustion and is transferred to water.

6. Un volumen de 1.0 mL de agua de mar contiene casi 4 x 10-12 g de Au. El volumen total de agua en los océanos es de 1.5 x 1021
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The total amount of Au is $ 2.0\times10^{24}

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of 1.0 ml of Au m=4\times10^{-2}\ g

Total volume of water in oceans V=1.5\times10^{21}\ L

We need to calculate the volume in ml

Using given volume

V=1.5\times10^{21}\times1000\ mL

V=1.5\times10^{24}\ mL

We need to calculate the total mass of Au  

Using given data

1\ ml\ volume = 4\times10^{-2}\ g

1.5\times10^{24}\ ml=4\times10^{-2}\times1.5\times10^{24}

So, The total mass of Au is 6\times10^{22}\ g

The mass will be in ounce,

Mass=0.035274\times6\times10^{22}

Mass=2.12\times10^{21}\ ounce

The total amount of the Au Will be

Total\ amount=2.12\times10^{21}\times948

Total\ amount=2.0\times10^{24}

Hence, The total amount of Au is $ 2.0\times10^{24}

Which of the following represents a propagation step in the monochlorination of methylene chloride (CH2Cl2)?a. CHCl3 + Cl. Right
svetlana [45]

Answer:

B = CHCl2 + Cl2 --> CHCl3 + Cl

Explanation:

Free radical halogenation is a chlorination reaction on Alkane hydrocarbons. This involves the splitting of molecules into radicals/ unstable molecules in the presence of sunlight/ U.V light which ensures bonding of the molecules.

Free radical chlorination is divided into 3 steps which are:

The initiation step

The propagation step

The termination step

So in reference to the question, propagation step involves two steps.

The first step is where the molecule in this case the methylene chloride(CH2Cl2) loses a hydrogen atom and then bond with a chlorine atom radical to give a nethylwnw chloride radical and HCl.

The second step involves the reaction of this methylene chloride got in the first step with chlorine molecule to form trichloride methane and a chlorine radical.

You would find in the attachment the 2 step mechanism.
