Answer:

Ionic character

A.  PF₃ > PBr₃ > PCl₃

B. BF₃ > CF₄ > NF₃

C. TeF₄ > BrF₃ > SeF₄

Explanation:

The most electronegative element is fluorine, followed chlorine, phosphorous nitrogen etc.

  • Atoms with high electronegativity tend to form negative ions.
  • Ionic compounds formed between elements with high electronegativity difference.
  • % ionic character is directly proportional to electronegativity difference.
  • According to Pauling Scale E.n for F(4.0), O(3.5), N(3.0), C(2.5), B(2.0), P(2.19), Se(2.55) , Te (2.1), Cl(3.16) and Br(2.96)
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( P and F = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81), (P and Br = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77) , (P and Cl = 3.16 - 2.96 = 0.2 )
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( N and F = 4 - 3 = 1), (B and F = 4 - 2 = 2) , (C and F = 4 - 2.5 = 1.5 )
  • ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( Se and F = 4 - 2.55 = 1.45), (F and Te = 4 - 2.1 = 1.9) , (F and Br = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81 )

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. In
KIM [24]

Answer:

ΔH = -470.4kJ

Explanation:

It is possible to sum 2 or more reactions to obtain the ΔH of the reaction you want to study (Hess's law). Using the reactions:

1. CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) → C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ

2. 6C2H2(g) + 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) → 5CH2CHCO2H(g)ΔH = 132kJ

6 times the reaction 1.

6CaC2(s) + 12H2O(l) → 6C2H2(g) + 6Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ*6 = -2484kJ

This reaction + 2:

6CaC2(s) + 3CO2(g) + 16H2O(l) →  + 6Ca(OH)2(s) + 5CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2484kJ + 132kJ = -2352kJ

As we want to calculate the net change enthalpy in the formation of just 1 mole of acrylic acid we need to divide this last reaction in 5:

6/5CaC2(s) + 3/5CO2(g) + 16/5H2O(l) →  + 6/5Ca(OH)2(s) + CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2352kJ / 5

<h3>ΔH = -470.4kJ</h3>

Enthalpy of <br><br> CH4(g) + 2NO2(g) -&gt; N2(g) + CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)
stira [4]

Answer:

-177.9 kJ.

Explanation:

Use Hess's law. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2CaO(s) ΔH = -1269.8 kJ We need to get rid of the Ca and O2 in the equations, so we need to change the equations so that they're on both sides so they "cancel" out, similar to a system of equations. I changed the second equation. Ca(s) + CO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → CaCO3(s) ΔH = -812.8 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ The sign changes in the second equation above since the reaction changed direction. Next, we need to multiply the first equation by two in order to get the coefficients of the Ca and O2 to match those in the second equation. We also multiply the enthalpy of the first equation by 2. 2Ca(s) + 2CO2(g) + O2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) ΔH = -1625.6 kJ 2CaO(s) → 2Ca(s) + O2(g) ΔH = +1269.8 kJ Now we add the two equations. The O2 and 2Ca "cancel" since they're on opposite sides of the arrow. Think of it more mathematically. We add the two enthalpies and get 2CaO(s) + 2CO2(g) → 2CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -355.8 kJ. Finally divide by two to get the given equation: CaO(s) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) and ΔH = -177.9 kJ.
