1. calculate the approximate enthalpy of the reaction in joules. estimate that 1.0 ml of vinegar has the same thermal mass as 1.0 ml of water. iqnore the thermal mass of th sodium bicarbonate. note: it takes about 4.2 joules () to change 1.0 gram (1.0ml) of water 1.0 c

The characteristic of two different types of reactions are shown below. reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of and element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? a: their identity changes in both reaction a and b. b: their identity changes in reaction a but not b. c: their identity changes in reaction b but not a. d: their identity remains the same.

Some liquids can be distilled, but only at temperatures that are so high that it is impractical, or so high the compound decomposes. explain why distillation such compounds at significantly less than atmospheric pressure (some degree of vacuum) would solve this problem.
