Great job! You answered the majority of the questions correctly. Keep up the good work!
1. The compound with the smallest bond energy can be determined by looking at the trend in bond energies. As you can see from the given bond energies, the bond energy generally decreases as you move down the periodic table. In this case, Cs is below K, so the bond energy between Cs and Br (Cs-Br) would be the smallest. Therefore, the correct answer is K-Br.
2. To determine which atom francium (Fr) is most likely to form an ionic bond with based on electronegativity, we need to find the atom with the highest electronegativity difference. In this case, Fr-Se has the highest electronegativity difference of 1.76. Therefore, Fr is most likely to form an ionic bond with Se.
3. The best description of the energy found in molecules of water is that hotter molecules have more kinetic energy. This is because temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules also increases.
4. From the given information, we can determine that the reaction is exothermic. This is because the potential energy of the products is less than the potential energy of the reactants. In an exothermic reaction, energy is released in the form of heat.
5. In an endothermic reaction, more bond energy is absorbed on the reactants side than is released on the products side. This is because endothermic reactions require an input of energy to break the bonds in the reactants and form the bonds in the products. Therefore, the correct statement is that more bond energy is absorbed on the reactants side than is released on the products side.
6. The graph described represents an exothermic reaction. An exothermic reaction is characterized by a decrease in potential energy as the reaction progresses from reactants to products. The peak labeled "Activation Energy" represents the energy barrier that must be overcome for the reaction to proceed.
7. Exothermic reactions have a higher activation energy. In an exothermic reaction, the energy required to break up the bonds of the reactants is typically lower than the energy released when the bonds in the products are formed. Therefore, exothermic reactions require more energy to break up the bonds of the reactants, leading to a higher activation energy.
8. Heat must be released by the reactants and the products in order to freeze ice into crystals. When a substance freezes, it releases heat as it transitions from a higher energy state (liquid) to a lower energy state (solid). Therefore, heat must be released by the reactants and the products during the freezing process.
9. Heating a blue solution will turn it purple. This is because the reaction is reversible, and heating the system shifts the equilibrium towards the reactants side, resulting in a color change from blue to purple.
10. Rubber and metal are both useful while making wire because they are flexible. Rubber provides insulation to protect against electric shocks, while metal provides conductivity to allow electric current to flow through the wire.
11. Organic solvent extraction is the most efficient process with the lowest environmental impact for extracting an ingredient from pomace. Organic solvents are typically less harmful to the environment compared to other extraction methods such as high pressure, high-temperature water extraction, catalyst extraction, or enzyme extraction.
12. Reducing environmental impact is a modern reason for optimizing the mining process. With increasing concerns about sustainability and environmental preservation, mining companies are focusing on reducing their impact on ecosystems, water resources, and air quality through various mining techniques and technologies.
13. In the given reaction, Fe2O3 + 3H2SO4, there are 15 atoms of oxygen present in the products of the reaction (4 atoms in CO2 and 11 atoms in H2O).
14. The balanced equation demonstrates the law of conservation of matter because the number of molecules, type of elements, and mass of reactants and products are equal on both sides of the equation.
15. To determine the mass of element B present when the initial mass of element A is 48 grams, we need to use the mole ratio from the balanced equation. From the equation 3A2 + 2B → 2A3B, we can see that the ratio of A to B is 3:2. Therefore, if the initial mass of A is 48 grams (3 moles), the mass of B should be (2/3) * 48 = 32 grams.
16. To calculate the number of molecules of silicon dioxide (SiO2) in a sample, we need to convert the mass to moles and then use Avogadro's number. The molar mass of SiO2 is 60.08 g/mol. So, for a 15-gram sample, the number of moles is 15 g / 60.08 g/mol = 0.249 mol. Finally, multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number (6.022x10^23) to get the number of molecules, which is approximately 1.503x10^23 molecules.
17. The statement that accurately describes the number of protons and neutrons in a nuclear change is: "The relative numbers of protons and neutrons can differ before and after the change, but the total number of those particles remains the same." In a nuclear change, the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus can change, leading to the formation of a different element or an isotope of the same element, but the total number of protons and neutrons must remain constant for the conservation of mass and charge.
18. Nuclear fission is a process in which a large nucleus is split into smaller nuclei. This accurately describes the process of nuclear fission, where a heavy nucleus, such as uranium or plutonium, is bombarded with a neutron, causing it to split into two or more smaller nuclei along with the release of a large amount of energy.
19. A nucleus decays to produce a nucleus with one additional proton is undergoing beta-minus decay. In beta-minus decay, a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, and an electron (beta particle) is emitted. This increases the atomic number by one, converting the nucleus into an atom of the next element in the periodic table.
20. Beta-minus decay is a form of nuclear fission. In beta-minus decay, a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, and an electron (beta particle) is emitted. This process is called beta decay and is a type of radioactive decay, not nuclear fission. Nuclear fission refers to the process of splitting a heavy nucleus into two or more smaller nuclei.
21. Greenhouse gases have more than two atoms, allowing them to vibrate and release radiation, warming the atmosphere. This statement accurately describes why some atmospheric gases act as greenhouse gases. The vibrational modes of molecules with more than two atoms allow them to absorb and emit infrared radiation, trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere and contributing to the greenhouse effect.
22. The correct cause and consequence of water pollution is: cause - acid rain; consequence - destruction of crops. Acid rain, which is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides reacting with water vapor in the atmosphere, can lead to environmental damage, including the acidification of water bodies and soil, resulting in the destruction of crops.
23. The most likely result of eutrophication of a waterway is toxic bacteria in the water supply. Eutrophication occurs when excessive nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus from sources like agricultural runoff or sewage, enter a waterway and promote the growth of algae and other plants. As these plants die and decompose, oxygen levels in the water decrease, creating a favorable environment for the growth of harmful bacteria, which can pose risks to human health.
24. Fracking is still used today because it reaches hard-to-get oil and gas deposits. Fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, is a process that involves injecting a mixture of water, sand, and chemicals deep underground to break apart rock formations and release trapped oil or natural gas. It allows access to previously inaccessible reserves, contributing to increased energy production.
