Free-energy change, ΔG∘, is related to cell potential, E∘, by the equationΔG∘=−nFE∘where n is the number of moles of electrons t

mart [117]

Answer:

a) $\Delta G=372490 J$

b) $\Delta G=-568614 J$

Explanation:

a) The reaction:

$Mg(s) +Fe^{2+}(aq) \longrightarrow Mg^{2+}(aq) + Fe(s)$

The free-energy expression:

$\Delta G=-n*F*E$

$E=E_{red}-E_{ox]$

The element wich is reduced is the Fe and the one that oxidates is the Mg:

$-0.44V=E_{red}-(-2.37V)=1.93V$

The electrons transfered (n) in this reaction are 2, so:

$\Delta G=-2mol*96500 C/mol * 1.93 V$

$\Delta G=-372490 J$

b) If you have values of enthalpy and enthropy you can calculate the free-energy by:

$\Delta G=\Delta H - T* \Delta S$

with T in Kelvin

$\Delta G=-675 kJ*\frac{1000J}{kJ} - 298K*-357 J/K$

$\Delta G=-568614 J$

A cylinder of oxygen gas has a pressure of 6.00 atm at 25.0

Readme [11.4K]

P1/T1=P2/T2 Gal Lussac's Law
25 C= 298K (just add 273)
0 C= 273 k

6.00atm/298=P2/273

P2=5.50 atm

A 2kg metal cylinder is supplied with 1600J of energy to heat it from 5*C to 13*C. What is the SHC of the metal?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

100Jkg/°C

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of metal = 2kg

Amount of heat energy = 1600J

Initial temperature = 5°C

Final temperature = 13°C

Unknown:

Specific heat capacity of the metal = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of unit mass of a body by 1°C.

H = m x C x (T₂ - T₁ )

H is the amount of heat

m is the mass

C is the unknown specific heat capacity

T is the temperature

Insert the parameters and solve;

1600 = 2 x C x (13 - 5)

1600 = 16C

C = 100Jkg/°C
