A negative formation enthalpy means that the reaction is exothermic, or that heat is released during the process.

The negative enthalpy of formation of water infers that heat is released during the process.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy is the measure of internal energy of the system with pressure and volume. And Enthalpy of formations are the measure of change in enthalpy occurred during the formation of products from its elements.

The enthalpy of formation can be defined as the change in enthalpy required to form 1 mole of products from its element. Thus it can be either negative value or positive value. So if the enthalpy of formation is negative that means the heat is released during the process.

Answer:

Without dark matter galaxies would loose an extreme amount of gas required to create stars.

Without dark matter the universe wont have as many galaxies clumped together forming larger versions of those galaxies. This would cause a change in the structure of the "skeleton" of the web.

Consider the following oxides: SO2, Y2O3, MgO, Cl2O, and N2O5. How many are expected to form acidic solutions in water? Consider
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water

Explanation:

We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.

Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.

Considering the given oxides carefully,

  • SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.

  • Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.

  • MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.

  • Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.

  • N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.

Explain how your experimental data for Rf values are, or are not, consistent with your predictions of enantiomeric and diastereo
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Answer is explained below.

Explanation:

As (+) menthol and (-) menthol are enantiomers whose physical properties are same except optical activity so we can expect they have similar Rf values.

Whereas diastereomers have different physical properties and different Rf values.

For example when the (+) menthol , (-) menthol, isomenthol and neomenthol undergo TLC (thin layer chromatography) the

Rf values of.(+menthol) = .447

Rf (+isomenthol) = .395

Rf (+neomenthol)= .487

Rf (-menthol) = .434

The above data shows that (+) menthol and (-) menthol have almost same Rf values and vary a little i.e 0.447 and 0.437. So we can conclude them as enantiomers

Whereas (+) menthol or (+) neomenthol or (+) isomenthol i.e 0.447 , 0.395 and 0.487 have different Rf values. We can conclude them as diasteromers.

(+) menthol and (-) menthol - enantiomers

(+) menthol and (+) neomenthol- diastereomers

(-) menthol and (+) isomenthol - diastereomers
