Three things that should happen for a chemical reaction to occure :
1. Position of electrons must change
2. Chemical bonds must be formed and broken between atoms and
3. No changes should happen to the nuclei

SnO2 + 2 H2 ——> Sn + 2 H2O

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

0.15g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of water = 1.2 x 10²¹ molecules

Unknown:

Mass of SnO₂ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to work from the known to the unknown specie;

SnO₂ + 2H₂ → Sn + 2H₂O

Ensure that the equation given is balanced;

Now,

the known species is water;

6.02 x 10²³ molecules of water = 1 mole

1.2 x 10²¹ molecules of water = $\frac{1.2 x 10^{21} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }$ = 0.2 x 10⁻²moles

Number of moles of water = 0.002moles

From the balanced chemical equation:

2 mole of water is produced from 1 mole of SnO₂

0.002 moles of water will be produced from $\frac{0.002}{2}$ = 0.001moles

To find the mass;

Mass = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of SnO₂ = 118.7 + 2(16) = 150.7g/mol

Mass = 0.001 x 150.7 = 0.15g

Which of the following statements is true? A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures. B) This reaction will

viktelen [127]

Answer:

D) This reaction will be nonspontaneous only at high temperatures.

Explanation:

According the equation of Gibb's free energy -

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

∆G = is the change in gibb's free energy

∆H = is the change in enthalpy

T = temperature

∆S = is the change in entropy .

And , the sign of the ΔG , determines whether the reaction is Spontaneous or non Spontaneous or at equilibrium ,

i.e. ,

ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous

ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous

ΔG = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium

The reaction has the value for ∆H = negative , and ∆S = negative ,

Now ,

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

= ( - ∆H ) - T( - ∆S )

= ( - ∆H ) +T( ∆S )

Now, for making the reaction Spontaneous ΔG = negative ,

Hence ,

The temperature is low, then the value for ΔG will be negative , i.e. , Spontaneous reaction .

And , vice versa , at higher temperature , the reaction will have ΔG positive , and the reaction will be non -Spontaneous reaction .

The standard free energy of formation will be zero , only for the compounds that are in their pure form ,

Hence , Al(s) will have ΔG = 0 .
