A plumber is going to put two pipes in a wall, one in front and one in back. The pipes will be touching once they are installed. Both pipes are the same size and have the same number of molecules. The diagram above shows the pipes now, before they have touched. Use the information in the diagram to answer the question. How does the temperature of the front pipe compare with the temperature of the back pipe before the pipes touch? What will happen after the pipes have been touching for a while?

Base your answer on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry. nitrogen dioxide, no2, is a dark brown gas that is used to make nitric acid and to bleach flour. nitrogen dioxide has a boiling point of 294 k at 101.3 kpa. in a rigid cylinder with a movable piston, nitrogen dioxide can be in equilibrium with colorless dinitrogen tetroxide, n2o4. this equilibrium is represented by the equation below. 2no2(g) n2o4(g) + 58kj at standard pressure, compare the strength of intermolecular forces in no2(g) to the strength of intermolecular forces in n2(g).

One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(ii) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. the sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(ii) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(ii) sulfate. scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: (s) (aq) (s) (aq) suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. he adds powdered iron to a copper(ii) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. he then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass of .

Two solids are mixed in a flask and stirred. after a few minutes, the flask becomes cold. which of the following best describes this reaction? a. an exothermic reaction b. a combustion reaction c. an endothermic reaction d. a decomposition reaction
