If two protons and two neutrons are added to the nucleus of a carbon atom, what nucleus does it become?

1 answer:

5 0

If two protons are added to carbon, the chemical identity changes to oxygen, which is two spaces over horizontally on the periodic table. The number of protons is what we call the atomic number (Z), and this is what defines the identity of an element. Since we also added two neutrons, this is simply oxygen, or oxygen-16, the most abundant isotope of oxygen.

I2(g) + Cl2(g)2ICl(g) Using standard thermodynamic data at 298K, calculate the entropy change for the surroundings when 1.62 mol

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The change in entropy of the surrounding is -146.11 J/K.

Explanation:

Enthalpy of formation of iodine gas = $\Delta H_f_{(I_2)}=62.438 kJ/mol$

Enthalpy of formation of chlorine gas = $\Delta H_f_{(Cl_2)}=0 kJ/mol$

Enthalpy of formation of ICl gas = $\Delta H_f_{(ICl)}=17.78 kJ/mol$

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$I_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2ICl(g),\Delta H_{rxn}=?$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(ICl)})]-[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(I_2)})+(1\times \Delta H_f_{(Cl_2)})]$

$=[2\times 17.78 kJ/mol]-[1\times 0 kJ/mol+1\times 62.436 kJ/mol]=-26.878 kJ/mol$

Enthaply change when 1.62 moles of iodine gas recast:

$\Delta H= \Delta H_{rxn}\times 1.62 mol=(-26.878 kJ/mol)\times 1.62 mol=-43.542 kJ$

Entropy of the surrounding = $\Delta S^o_{surr}=\frac{\Delta H}{T}$

$=\frac{-43.542 kJ}{298 K}=\frac{-43,542 J}{298 K}=-146.11 J/K$

1 kJ = 1000 J

The change in entropy of the surrounding is -146.11 J/K.

Place the following in order of increasing molar entropy at 298 K.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

SO < CO2 < C3H8

Explanation:

Entropy refers to the degree of disorderliness of a system. The standard molar entropy of a substance refers to the entropy of 1 mole of the substance vunder standard conditions.

The molar entropy depends on the number of microstates in the system which in turn depends on the number of atoms in the molecule.

C3H8 has 11 atoms and hence the highest number of microstates followed by CO2 having three atoms and least of all SO having only two atoms.
