Entropy is the term defined as a measure of the disorder of a system. This occurs mainly when the thermal energy is not available for the mechanical things.

Phthalates used as plasticizers in rubber and plastic products are believed to act as hormone mimics in humans. The value of ΔHc

jeka94

Answer:

$T_f$ = 25.05°C

Explanation:

Given:

the value of ΔHcomb (heat of combustion) for dimethylphthalate (C10H10O4) is = 4685 kJ/mol.

mass = 0.905g of dimethylphthalate

molar mass = 194.18g dimethylphthalate

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = ???

$T_i$ = 21.5°C

$C_{calorimeter}$ = 6.15 kJ/°C

$T_f$ = ???

since we have our molar mass and mass of dimethylphthalate ;we can determine the number of moles as;

0.905g of dimethylphthalate × $\frac{1 mole (dimethylphthalate)}{194.184g(dimethylphthalate)}$

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = 0.000466 moles

Heat released = moles of dimethylphthalate × heat of combustion

= 0.000466 moles × 4685 kJ

= 21.84 kJ

∴ Heat absorbed by the calorimeter = $C_{calorimeter}$ $(T_f-T_i} )$

21.84 kJ =6.15 kJ/°C $* (T_f-21,5^0C)$

21.84 KJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - (6.15 kJ/^0C*21.5^0C)$

21.84 KJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$ - 132.225 kJ

21.84 KJ + 132.225 kJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$

154.065 kJ = $(6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)$

$T_f$ = $\frac{154.065kJ}{6.15kJ/^0C}$

$T_f$ =25.05°C

Tetrachloromethane, CCl4 is produced from the substitution reaction between methane and chlorine gas. If the rate of formation o

Korolek [52]

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas : 0.2 mol/dm³

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time.

For reaction :

$\tt aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD$

The rate reaction :

$\tt -\dfrac{1}{a}\dfrac{d[-A]}{dt}= -\dfrac{1}{b}\dfrac{d[-B]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{c}\dfrac{d[C]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{d}\dfrac{d[D]}{dt}$

Reaction for formation CCl₄ :

<em />

From equation, rate of reaction = rate of formation CCl₄ = 0.05 mol/dm³

Rate of formation of CCl₄ = reaction rate x coefficient of CCCl₄

0.05 mol/dm³ = reaction rate x 1⇒reaction rate = 0.05 mol/dm³

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas (Cl₂) :

Rate of disappearance of Cl₂ = reaction rate x coefficient of Cl₂

Rate of disappearance of Cl₂ = 0.05 x 4 = 0.2 mol/dm³
