<u>Answer:</u> The \Deltas H^o_{formation} for the reaction is -1406.8 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The chemical reaction for the formation reaction of AlCl_3 is:

2Al(s)+3Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2AlCl_3 (s)    \Delta H^o_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) HCl(g)\rightarrow HCl(aq.)    \Delta H_1=-74.8kJ    ( ×  6)

(2) H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2HCl(g)    \Delta H_2=-185kJ     ( ×  3)

(3) AlCl_3(aq.)\rightarrow AlCl_3(s)    \Delta H_3=+323kJ     ( ×  2)

(4) 2Al(s)+6HCl(aq.)\rightarrow 2AlCl_3(aq.)+3H_2(g)    \Delta H_4=-1049kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of AlCl_3 is,

\Delta H^o_{formation}=[6\times \Delta H_1]+[3\times \Delta H_2]+[2\times \Delta H_3]+[1\times \Delta H_4]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{formation}=[(-74.8\times 6)+(-185\times 3)+(323\times 2)+(-1049\times 1)]=-1406.8kJ

Hence, the \Deltas H^o_{formation} for the reaction is -1406.8 kJ.

Which objects cannot be observed in detail without a microscope?
Sonbull [250]

The objects which cannot be observed in detail without a microscope

include the following:

  • Red blood cell
  • Bacterium

<h3>What is a Microscope?</h3>

A microscope is an instrument which is used to view smaller objects such as

microbe,cells, tissues etc. This instrument is used in viewing the different

cells found in the body as they can't be seen with the eye.

The remaining options which can be seen with the eyes don't require

the use of microscopes.

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base but is not very soluble ( Ksp = 5.02 X 10-6 ). What is the pH of a saturated solution of Ca(O
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer : The pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

Explanation : Given,

K_{sp} = 5.02\times 10^{-6}

First we have to calculate the solubility of OH^- ion.

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be:

Ca(OH)_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2OH^-

Let the solubility will be, 's'.

The concentration of Ca^{2+} ion = s

The concentration of OH^- ion = 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^-]^2

Let the solubility will be, 's'

K_{sp}=(s)\times (2s)^2

K_{sp}=(4s)^3

Now put the value of K_[sp} in this expression, we get the solubility.

5.02\times 10^{-6}=(4s)^3

s=1.079\times 10^{-2}M

The concentration of Ca^{2+} ion = s = 1.079\times 10^{-2}M

The concentration of OH^- ion = 2s = 2\times (1.079\times 10^{-2}M)=2.158\times 10^{-2}M

First we have to calculate the pOH.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

pOH=-\log (2.158\times 10^{-2})

pOH=1.67

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-1.67=12.33

Therefore, the pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

A student is trying to develop a model of an instant heat pack. What is the essential characteristic of the chemical reaction th
Lana71 [14]

The standard enthalpy of reaction should be negative.

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

A thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system. It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume.

Inside the heat pack are two chemicals that get mixed when you smush them together. As they mix, some weak bonds are broken, which takes a little bit of energy. But new, stronger bonds form which release energy. Releasing that energy causes the surroundings to heat up.

Hence, option B is correct.
