The objectives for this discussion forum will introduce you to the fundamental concepts of energy and how they are used in thermochemistry. Thermochemistry is the study of the relationships between heat energy and chemical reactions. You will choose from one of the following statements and then provide your assessment.
Consider an exothermic process taking place in an Erlenmeyer flask at room temperature. Choose one of the following statements, determine if it is true or false, then provide an explanation for your answer.
Here are some suggestions of topics on which to elaborate upon in your explanations:
(a)True. Explanation: In an Exothermic reaction, the enthalpy of product is less than that of reactant because product is thermodynamically more stable than reactant, as shown in figure. So the overall change in enthalpy will be negative and so the ''q''.
(b)True. Explanation: As the heat evolving from the system, it will be dissipated in surrounding and will be reflected as increase in temperature of surrounding, in this case Erlenmeyer flask.
(c) False. As explained, heat is evolving from the system and dissipated in surrounding.

1) One of these statements is incorrect. Which one? Group of answer choices Energy is the capacity to do work or transfer heat. Exothermic processes transfer heat from the surroundings into the system. Endothermic processes have a positive ΔH value. Energy is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. 2) Choose the compound from the set that can be classified as a salt. Group of answer choices sodium hydroxide (NaOH) acetic acid (CH3CO2H) glucose (C6H12O6) magnesium bromide (MgBr2) 3) Which...
SYNOPSIS The product manager for coffee development at Kraft Canada must decide whether to introduce the company's new line of single-serve coffee pods or to await results from the product's launch in the United States. Key strategic decisions include choosing the target market to focus on and determining the value proposition to emphasize. Important questions are also raised in regard to how the new product should be branded, the flavors to offer, whether Kraft should use traditional distribution channels or...
