Identify the Lewis acid in the following reaction: Cr3+(aq)+6H2O(aq)⇌Cr(H2O)63+(aq)
2 answers:
Answer:The Lewis acid the in the given reaction is ion.
Explanation:
According Lewis Theory of acid base concept:
- Acids are those who accepts pair of electron pair
- Bases are those who donates pair of electron pair.
In the above reaction chromium (III) ion is acting as a Lewis acid and water is acting as Lewis base. Chromium ion easily accepts the electron pair that is lone pair of oxygen atom present in water molecule.

Explanation:
Enthalpy is denoted by H.
Enthalpy: Total heat change in a chemical reaction is called enthalpy.
The change of entalpy of a reaction is denoted by
Hass's Law:The change in enthalpy of any process can be determined by calculating the sum of change in enthalpy of each of the steps involved in the process.
g= gas
S= solid
P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→ 4Cl₅(s) =?
PCl₅(s)→ PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g) .......(1) = +157KJ
P₄(g)+6Cl₂(g)→ 4PCl₃(g).............(2) = -1207 KJ
If we flip a reaction the value of enthalpy will be change positive to negative or nagative to positive but the numerical value will be remain same.
We need rearrange the equation (1) because in the required equation Cl₂ is on the left side. So we flip the first equation.
PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g)→PCl₅(s)......(3) = -157KJ
Multiplying 4 with equation (3)
4 PCl₃(g)+4Cl₂(g)→4PCl₅(s)......(4) =4×( -157)KJ= -628 KJ
Adding equation (2) and (4) we get
P₄(g)+6Cl₂(g)+4 PCl₃(g)+4Cl₂(g)→4PCl₃(g)+4PCl₅(s) =( -1207-628)KJ
⇒P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→4PCl₃(g)-4PCl₃(g)+4PCl₅(s) = - 1835KJ
⇒P₄(g)+10Cl₂(g)→ 4Cl₅(s) = -1835 KJ
Therefore = -1835 KJ
