A small sample of methane burns, releasing 120.0 kJ of heat and doing 830.0 kJ of work. The total energy released is -950.0 kJ.

  • What is energy?

Energy is a property that is transferred to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.

A small sample of methane undergoes combustion. As the hot gas mixture expands, it releases energy (E).

  • It releases 120.0 kJ of heat. By convention, when heat is released, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, q = -120.0 kJ.
  • It does 830.0 kJ of work. By convention, when the system does work on the surroundings, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, w = -830.0 kJ.

The change in the energy is the sum of the heat released and the work done.

ΔE = q + w = -120.0 kJ + (-830.0 kJ) = -950.0 kJ

A small sample of methane burns, releasing 120.0 kJ of heat and doing 830.0 kJ of work. The total energy released is -950.0 kJ.

The following reaction is found to be at equilibrium at 25 celcius: 2SO3--->O2 + 2SO2 + 198kJ/mol. If the value for Kc at 25
kondaur [170]

Answer:

D.) Products are weakly favored

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2SO₃ ⇄ O₂ + 2SO₂ + 198kJ/mol

The kc is defined as:

kc = [O₂] [SO₂]² / [SO₃]²

As the kc is 8,1:

8,1 [SO₃]² =  [O₂] [SO₂]²

The products are favored 8,1 times. This is a weakly favored because the usual kc are in the order of 1x10⁴. Thus, right answer is:

D.) Products are weakly favored

I hope it helps!
