Find ΔHrxn for the following reaction: <br><br> 2PbS(s)+3O2(g)→2PbO(s)+2SO2(g)
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = -827.5 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 PbS(s) + 3 O₂(g) → 2 PbO(s) + 2 SO₂(g)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction (ΔH°rxn) from the standard enthalpies of formation (ΔH°f) using the following expression.

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbO(s)) + 2 mol × ΔH°f(SO₂(g) )] - [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbS(s)) + 3 mol × ΔH°f(O₂(g) )]

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbO(s)) + 2 mol × ΔH°f(SO₂(g) )] - [2 mol × ΔH°f(PbS(s)) + 3 mol × ΔH°f(O₂(g) )]

ΔH°rxn = [2 mol × (-217.32 kJ/mol) + 2 mol × (-296.83)] - [2 mol × (-100.4) + 3 mol × 0 kJ/mol]

ΔH°rxn = -827.5 kJ

The atmospheric pressure in Francisco on ascertain day was 97.6kpa what was the pressure on mmhg
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

732.0601 mmHg

Explanation:

Given data:

Pressure = 97.6 KPa

Given pressure in mmHg = ?

Solution:

Kilo pascal and millimeter mercury both are units of pressure.

Kilo pascal is denoted as "KPa"

Millimeter mercury is denoted as " mmHg"

Kilo pascal is measure of force per unit area while also define as newton per meter square.

It is manometric unit of pressure. It is the pressure generated by column of mercury one millimeter high.

Conversation of kilopascal to mmHg:

97.6 × 7.501 = 732.0601 mmHg
