04-10 A power plant burns 100 metric tons of coal per day with a sulfur content of 5%. The coal contains 3% ash (noncombustible

portion). Samples of the ash show that it has a sulfur content of 10% sulfur by weight. Sulfur that is not in the ash is in the flue gases. How many metric tons of SO2 are emitted from the smoke stack each day? Answer: 9.4 ton SO2/d

Answer:

9.4 metric ton of SO₂ are emitted from yhe smoke stack each year.

Explanation:

Total amount = 100 metric ton

Sulphur in the total amount = 5% = 5 metric ton

Ash = 3% = 3 metric ton

Sulphur in the ash = 10% of 3 metric ton = 0.3 metric ton

Sulphur in the flue gases = 5 metric ton - 0.3 metric ton = 4.7 metric ton

Combustion of sulphur: S (s) + O₂ (g) → SO₂ (g)

32 g S _________ 64 g SO₂

4.7 x 10⁶ g ______    x

x = 9.4 x 10⁶ g = 9.4 metric ton of SO₂

In the following reaction, what is the quantity of heat (in kJ) released when 5.87 moles of CH₄ are burned?
IRISSAK [1]

Taking into account the definition of enthalpy of a chemical reaction, the quantity of heat released when 5.87 moles of CH₄ are burned is 4,707.74 kJ.

The enthalpy of a chemical reaction as the heat absorbed or released in a chemical reaction when it occurs at constant pressure. That is, the heat of reaction is the energy that is released or absorbed when chemicals are transformed into a chemical reaction.

The enthalpy is an extensive property, that is, it depends on the amount of matter present.

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

CH₄ (g) + 2 O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O(g)

and the enthalpy reaction ∆H° has a value of -802 kJ/mol.

This equation indicates that when 1 mole of CH₄ reacts with 2 moles of O2, 802 kJ of heat is released.

When 5.87 moles of CH₄ are burned, then you can apply the following rule of three: if 1 mole of CH₄ releases 802 kJ of heat, 5.87 moles of CH₄ releases how much heat?

heat=\frac{5.87 molesof CH_{4}x802 kJ}{1 mol of CH_{4} }

<u><em>heat= 4,707.74 kJ</em></u>

Finally, the quantity of heat released when 5.87 moles of CH₄ are burned is 4,707.74 kJ.

A 0.500-g sample of KCl is added to 50.0g of water in a calprimeter (Figure 5.12) If the temperature decreases by 1.05C. what is
Sauron [17]

Answer : The reaction is endothermic.

Explanation :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

\Delta T = change in temperature = 1.05^oC

Q = heat involved in the dissolution of KCl = ?

m = mass = 0.500 + 50.0 = 50.5 g

c = specific heat of resulting solution = 4.18J/g^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=50.5g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 1.05^oC

Q=+221.64J

The heat involved in the dissolution of KCl is positive that means as the change in temperature decreases then the reaction is endothermic and as the change in temperature increases then the reaction is exothermic.

Hence, the reaction is endothermic.

Which of the following electron configurations gives the correct arrangement of the four valence electrons of the carbon atom in
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

D) 2s^12p^3

Explanation:

Carbon.

The electronic configuration is -  

1s^22s^22p^2

Thus, 2s orbital is fully filled and p orbital can singly filled 3 electrons. Thus, Carbon has 2 singly occupied orbitals.

But in methane, CH_4 it forms 4 bonds. So, 1 electron each from 2s orbital jumps to the next orbital in the p subshell.

Thus, the configuration is:-

1s^22s^22p^2

Thus, the valence electron configuration is:-

2s^12p^3
