Considering the Hess's Law, the enthalpy change for the reaction is -906.4 kJ/mol.

<h3>Hess's Law</h3>

Hess's Law indicates that the enthalpy change in a chemical reaction will be the same whether it occurs in a single stage or in several stages. That is, the sum of the ∆H of each stage of the reaction will give us a value equal to the ∆H of the reaction when it occurs in a single stage.

<h3>ΔH in this case</h3>

In this case you want to calculate the enthalpy change of:

4 NH₃ + 5 O₂ → 4 NO + 6 H₂O

which occurs in three stages.

You know the following reactions, with their corresponding enthalpies:

Equation 1: 2 N₂ + 6 H₂ → 4 NH₃   ΔH = –183.6 kJ/mol

Equation 2:  2 N₂ + 2 O₂ → 4 NO     ΔH = 361.1 kJ/mol

Equation 3: 2 H₂ + O₂→ 2 H₂O     ΔH = -483.7 kJ/mol

Because of the way formation reactions are defined, any chemical reaction can be written as a combination of formation reactions, some going forward and some going back.

In this case, first, to obtain the enthalpy of the desired chemical reaction you need 4 moles of NH₃ on reactant side and it is present in first equation on product side. So you need to invert the reaction, and when an equation is inverted, the sign of delta H also changes.

Now, 4 moles of NO must be a product and is present in the second equation, so let's write this as such.

Finally, you need 6 moles of H₂O on the product side, so you need to multiply by 3 the third equation to obtain the amount of water that you need. Since enthalpy is an extensive property, that is, it depends on the amount of matter present, since the equation is multiply by 3, the variation of enthalpy also.

In summary, you know that three equations with their corresponding enthalpies are:

Equation 1: 2 4 NH₃ → N₂ + 6 H₂  ΔH = 183.6 kJ/mol

Equation 2:  2 N₂ + 2 O₂ → 4 NO     ΔH = 361.1 kJ/mol

Equation 3: 6 H₂ + 3 O₂→ 6 H₂O     ΔH = -1,451.1 kJ/mol

Adding or canceling the reactants and products as appropriate, and adding the enthalpies algebraically, you obtain:

4 NH₃ + 5 O₂ → 4 NO + 6 H₂O ΔH= -906.4 kJ/mol

Finally, the enthalpy change for the reaction is -906.4 kJ/mol.

Levart [38]

B) convection

Explanation:

Once the sun's energy reaches the earth's atmosphere by radiation, it is circulated within the atmosphere and oceans through convection.

The energy of the sun on earth is moved between the ocean and the atmosphere by air around us.

  • Heat transfer in fluids is by convection.
  • It involves the actual motion of the particles of medium from one place to another due to differences in temperature and density.
  • Air close to the surface of the ocean is less dense and hot due to high temperature.
  • The air rises and it is replaced by colder air masses.
  • This exchange leads to the development of convective cells.
  • This moves the energy of the sun between the atmosphere and the ocean surface.
