5. Sodium peroxide reacts vigorously with water in the following unbalanced equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

30.7 g of O₂ are produced

Explanation:

This is a redox reaction, where the peroxide is reduced to oxygen and oxidized to hydroxide. The equation is this one:

2Na₂O₂ + 2H₂O → 4NaOH + 3O₂

We assume that water is in excess, so the peroxide is the limiting reagent.

We convert the mass to moles: 50 g . 1mol / 78 g = 0.641 moles

2 moles of peroxide can produce 3 moles of oxygen (according to stoichiometry)

Then, 0.641 moles of peroxide will produce (0.641 . 3 ) /2 = 0.961 moles O₂

Finally, we convert the moles to mass: 0.961mol . 32 g / 1mol = 30.7 g of O₂

Sodium metal reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas according to the following equation: 2Na(s) + 2H2O(l)2NaOH(aq) + H2(g) Th
Maru [420]

Answer:

Number of moles of sodium reacted = 0.707 moles

Explanation:

P(H₂) = P(T) – P(H₂O)

P(H₂) = 754 – 17.5 = 736.5 mm Hg

Use the ideal gas equation which

PV= nRT, where P is the pressure V is the volume, n is the number of moles R is the Gas Constant and T is temperature

<u>Re- arrange to calculate the number of moles and using the data provided</u>

n = P x V/R x T

n =736.5 x 8.77/62.36367 x (mmHg/mol K) x (20 + 273)

n = 0.35348668

n = 0.353 moles H₂

<u>from the equation we know that</u>

0.353 mole H₂ x 2mole Na/1mole H₂, So

0.353 x 2 = 0.707 mole Na

The number of moles of Sodium metal reacted were 0.707 moles.

Lord kelvin described the concept of absolute zero temperature and the laws relating the change in thermal energy during chemica
kondaur [170]
Lord Kelvin, were he alive today, would be considered a Thermochemist. Thermochemistry is interested in the role of heat in chemical reactions. This includes the role of heat both as a biproduct of chemical reactions and a facilitator.

Kelvin's description of absolute zero is an important concept in thermochemistry. At absolute zero, there is no movement of molecules, and no energy available facilitate chemical reactions.
