"Inert" xenon actually forms many compounds, especially with highly electronegative fluorine. The ΔH° values for xenon difluorid

e, tetrafluoride, and hexafluoride are -2105, - 2284, and - 2402 kJ/mol, respectively. Find the average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride.

The average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

Given:

ΔH° of xenon difluoride (XeF2) = -105 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4)= -284 kJ/mol

ΔH° of xenon hexafluoride (XeF6) = -402 kJ/mol

The bond energy of Xe-F in XeF2 can be calculated as follows,

As we know that

ΔH° = ΔH°(bond formed) + ΔH°(bond broken)

The chemical reaction for the formation of XeF2 can be written in such a way,

Xe (g) + F2 (g) → XeF2 (g)

= [1 mol F2 (159 kJ/mol)] + [2(-Xe-F)] - 105 kJ/mol

= 159 kJ/mol + 2(-Xe-F) - 264 kJ/mol

= 2(-Xe-F)

Xe-F = 132 kJ/mol

Thus, we concluded that the average bond energy of the Xe¬F bonds in each fluoride is 132kJ/mol.

The number of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate molecules that would be produced from 24 turns of the calvin cycle would be
SVEN [57.7K]
The Calvin cycle, also called the light-independent or carbon fixation reactions, is the second stage of photosynthesis where water, and carbon dioxide (CO2) from air, are converted into organic compounds (i.e. sugars) using the energy from short-lived electronically excited carriers (ATP and NADPH) for the reactions. These organic compounds can then be used by the producing organism (i.e. plants) and the animals that feed on it. 

One product of the Calvin cycle is the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P), which is later on used in the production of glucose and in the regeneration of <span>Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP), which is an organic compound</span> essential to the reactions in the cycle. 

One turn of Calvin Cycle produces 2 G3P molecules, each comprising of 3 carbons. This gives a total of 6 carbons. Five (5) of these carbons will be used to regenerate RuBP and only 1 will be available to form a surplus G3P later on. This surplus G3P will be used for the production of glucose (a 6-carbon sugar). 

Thus, 3 turns of the carbon cycle will produce 1 surplus G3P. There are 8 sets of 3-turns in 24 cycles, therefore, 

                       1 net G3P molecule * 8 sets of 3-turns  = 8 G3P molecules

Therefore, there are 8 net or surplus G3P molecules produced for 24 cycles of the Calvin Cycle. The total G3P molecules produced, including the ones that participated in the regeneration of RuBP would be 48 G3Ps. 

For every 3 turns, 6 G3P molecules are produced, 5 of which will be used in the regeneration of RuBP and 1 will be the net or surplus, to be used for the production of glucose. The 48 G3Ps then come from the calculation, 

                       6 total G3P molecules * 8 sets of 3-turns  = 48 G3P molecules


The figure below shows the products of the cycle after 3 turns (Source: https://ka-perseus-images.s3.amazonaws.com/2f4bdc8f8275834d3f5ef434d93bf16b991b2357.png).

How many moles of electrons are required to reduce one mole of MnO4- to one mole of Mn2+? (2 points)
Dafna1 [17]
The answer would be 6 e-. This is becuase you are turning a charge of -4 into a +2. In order to do this, you transfer 4 electrons for a neutral charge, and an additional 2 for a charge of +2.

This makes a total charge of +2, and the total transferred electrons 6 e-
