Substitution Reactions are those reactions in which one nucleophile replaces another nucleophile present on a substrate. These reactions can take place via two different mechanism i.e SN¹ or SN². In SN¹ substitution reactions the leaving group leaves first forming a carbocation and nucleophile attacks carbocation in the second step. While in SN² reactions the addition of Nucleophile and leaving of leaving group take place simultaneously.
Example:
OH⁻ + CH₃-Br → CH₃-OH + Br⁻
In above reaction,
OH⁻ = Incoming Nucleophile
CH₃-Br = Substrate
CH₃-OH = Product
Br⁻ = Leaving group
Organic reactions are typically slower than ionic reactions because in organic compounds the covalent bonds are first broken, this breaking of bonds is a slower step, while, in ionic compounds no bond breakage is required as it consists of ions, so only bond formation takes place which is a quicker and fast step.
Answer: +178.3 kJ
Explanation:
The chemical equation follows:
The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
The DH°rxn for the decomposition of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is +178.3 kJ
Particles in a: gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.

<span>A chemical reaction in which energy is absorbed is known as an endothermic reaction. The characteristics of the reaction in order from start to finish is as follows:
1. Lower energy of reactants
2. Transition state
3. Higher energy of products
This implies that in an endothermic reaction, </span><span>the products are less stable than the reactants.</span>
