Find the ΔG° for the combustion of half a mole of glucose C6H12O6 in kJ

Chemistry
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

-1435 kJ

Explanation:

The Gibbs free energy, ΔG is an indication the amount of (useful) work that can be obtained from a chemical reaction involving reacting species and it is negative for spontaneous reaction

ΔG° = ΔH° - TΔS

ΔG = ΔG° + RT㏑Q

ΔG = G (reactants) - G(products)

Given that the combustion reaction of glucose is as follows;

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

The above reaction has a ΔG° value of -2870 kJ

Therefore, the free energy for half mole of glucose = -2870 kJ/2 = -1435 kJ

An element has an atomic number of 78. the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom of the element would be _____.
Maurinko [17]

78 and 78. An atom of the element has 78 electrons and 78 protons.

The atomic number is 78, so the atom has 78 protons (+).

If the atom is neutral, it must contain 78 electrons (-).

Given the balanced equation 2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O, how many moles of CO2 are produced when 14.9g of O2 are used?
Anna [14]

Answer: The number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 0.287 moles.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of O_2 = 14.9 g

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of O_2

\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{Given mass }O_2}{\text{Molar mass }O_2}

\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{14.9g}{32g/mol}=0.466mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of CO_2

The balanced chemical equation is:

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 10H_2O+8CO_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 13 mole of O_2 react to give 8 moles of CO_2

So, 0.466 mole of O_2 react to give \frac{8}{13}\times 0.466=0.287 mole of CO_2

Therefore, the number of moles of CO_2 produced are, 0.287 moles.

In the determination of the specific heat of a metal, why is it desirable to use the minimum volume of water that will allow imm
Softa [21]

Answer:

Because it will allow a bigger temperature change.

Explanation:

The specific heat of the metal can be calculated by the heat change between it and the water. The total amount of heat must be 0, thus, the heat of the metal (Qm) plus the heat of water (Qw):

Qm + Qw = 0

The heat is the mass multiplied by the specific heat (c) and by the temperature change:

mm*cm*ΔTm + mw*cw*ΔTw = 0

mm*cm*ΔTm = - mw*cw*ΔTw

So, as higher is the value of mw, as low is the value of ΔTw, and if ΔTw is very low, and so the calculations may not be precise.
