Answer:

D.) magnesium and sulphur

Explanation:

Generally, ionic bonds form between a metal and a nonmetal.

Generally, covalent bonds form between two nonmetals.

Generally, metallic bonds form between two metals.

Nonmetals are located on the right side of the periodic table (apart from the noble gases in the final column). Hydrogen is also a nonmetal. Metals are every other element in the periodic table.

A.) Hydrogen (nonmetal) and carbon (nonmetal) = covalent

B.) Aluminum (metal) and magnesium (metal) = metallic

C.) Silicon (nonmetal) and chlorine (nonmetal) = covalent

D.) Magnesium (metal) and sulphur (nonmetal) = ionic

A scientist measures the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction to be 67.9 kJ:

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: The standard enthalpy of formation of $H_2O(g)$ is -252.1 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(g)$

The expression for enthalpy change is,

$\Delta H=[n\times H_f_{products}]-[n\times H_f_{reactantss}]$

Putting the values we get :

$\Delta H=[2\times H_f{Fe}+3\times H_f{H_2O}]-[1\times H_f{Fe_2O_3}+3\times H_f{H_2}]$

$67.9kJ=[(2\times 0)+(3\times H_f{H_2O})]-[(1\times -824.2kJ/mol)+3\times 0kJ/mol)]$

$H_f{H_2O}=-252.1kJ/mol$

Thus standard enthalpy of formation of $H_2O(g)$ is -252.1 kJ/mol.
