The balanced chemical reaction is written as:
P4 + 10Cl2 = 4PCl5
To determine the moles of PCl5 produced, we use the initial amount of the limiting reactant which is P4 and the relation from the reaction. We do as follows:
22.0 g P4 ( 1 mol / 123.90 g ) ( 4 mol PCl5 / 1 mol P4 ) = 0.7103 mol PCl5 produced
The chemical equation needs to be balanced so that it follows the law of conservation of mass.
Answer:
Classifying stars according to their spectrum is a very powerful way to begin to understand how they work. As we said last time, the spectral sequence O, B, A, F, G, K, M is a temperature sequence, with the hottest stars being of type O (surface temperatures 30,000-40,000 K), and the coolest stars being of type M (surface temperatures around 3,000 K). Because hot stars are blue, and cool stars are red, the temperature sequence is also a color sequence. It is sometimes helpful, though, to classify objects according to two different properties. Let's say we try to classify stars according to their apparent brightness, also. We could make a plot with color on one axis, and apparent brightness on the other axis, like this:

Answer:
- 10.555 kJ/mol.
Explanation:
∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.
Where, ∆G°rxn is the standard free energy change of the reaction (J/mol).
∆H°rxn is the standard enthalpy change of the reaction (J/mol).
T is the temperature of the reaction (K).
∆S°rxn is the standard entorpy change of the reaction (J/mol.K).
∵ ∆H°rxn = ∑∆H°products - ∑∆H°reactants
<em>∴ ∆H°rxn = (2 x ∆H°f NOCl) - (1 x ∆H°f Cl₂) - (2 x ∆H°f NO) </em>= (2 x 51.71 kJ/mol) - (1 x 0) - (2 x 90.29 kJ/mol) = - 77.16 kJ/mol.
∵ ∆S°rxn = ∑∆S°products - ∑∆S°reactants
<em>∴ ∆S°rxn = (2 x ∆S° NOCl) - (1 x ∆S° Cl₂) - (2 x ∆S° NO) </em>= (2 x 261.6 J/mol.K) - (1 x 223.0 J/mol.K) - (2 x 210.65 J/mol.K) =<em> - 121.1 J/mol.K. = - 0.1211 kJ/mol.K.</em>
<em></em>
∵ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn.
<em>∴ ∆G°rxn = ∆H°rxn - T∆S°rxn </em>= (- 77.16 kJ/mol) - (550 K)(- 0.1211 kJ/mol.K) = <em>- 10.555 kJ/mol.</em>
