Ethylene, C2H4, used to make polyethylene plastics, can be made from ethane, C2H6, one of the components of natural gas. The heat of reaction for the decomposition of ethane gas into ethylene gas and hydrogen gas is 136.94 kJ per mole of C2H4 formed, so it is endothermic. The reaction is run at high temperature, in part because at 800-900 °C, the equilibrium constant for the reaction is much higher, indicating that a higher percentage of products forms at this temperature. Explain why increased temperature drives this reversible chemical reaction in the endergonic direction and why this leads to an increase in the equilibrium constant for the reaction. C2H6(g) C2H4(g) + H2(g)

For which one of the following reactions is the value of δh° rxn equal to δh° f for the product? a. 2 h2 (g) + o2 (g) → 2 h2o (l) b. n2 (g) + o2 (g) → 2 no (g) c. 2 h2 (g) + o2 (g) → 2 h2o (g) d. h2o (l) + 1/2 o2 (g) → h2o2 (l) e. none of the above

Identify the lewis base in this balanced equation: fe3+ h2o fe(h2o)63+

For a family dinner, jose’s mom baked a loaf of bread. during the meal, his grandmother commented, “this bread is so dense! ” what do you think his grandmother meant by the word dense? you have some ideas regarding density already, but this experiment will enrich your understanding of the relationship between mass, volume and the density of objects. when making measurements in this experiment we will be using si units, the international system of units. the purpose of using si units is to have the ability to communicate and compare data results with other experiments without having to make conversions. measurement symbol si unit length m meter mass kg kilogram volume l liters density kg/l kilograms per liter any calculations that are performed during this experiment will ultimately be reported in scientific notation. recall that scientific notation is extremely important when we have data that is extremely small or large. scientists rely on a standard form of communication to quickly make hypotheses and judgements based on data. what is the density of block a? a0kg/l what is the density of block b? a1kg/l what is the density of block c? a2kg/l what is the density of block d? a3kg/l what is the density of block e? a4kg/l which block is the densest? a5
