When an endothermic chemical reaction (the system) occurs inside a calorimeter containing water (the surroundings) and no heat escapes from the calorimeter, which of the following statements is true? a. Heat flows from the system to the surroundings and the temperature of the water increases.
b. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water decreases.
c. Heat flows from the system to the surroundings and the temperature of the water decreases.
d. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water increases.

b. Heat flows from the surroundings to the system and the temperature of the water decreases.

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics lets us know that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Also, energy transfer does accompany chemical reactions in the form of heat.

For an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings. This leads to a drop in the temperature of the surroundings as energy is removed.

This implies that the water temperature decreases.

explanation:

venn diagram is pictorial representation with of circles showing the relation between two finite sets or things. the intersection part of two circles conveys the relation present in between those sets or things.

here in the venn diagram of sand and salt two circles represent sand and salt. but the area falling under the intersection of these circle represents the mixture of sand and salt.

so, in a venn diagram the mixture will be placed in a middle that is in between the intersection of two circles.

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
