The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>Zn + 2AgNO3 = Zn(NO3)2 + 2Ag

To determine the grams of silver metal that is being produced, it is important to first determine which is the limiting reactant and the excess reactant from the given initial amounts. We do as follows:

4.35 g Zn ( 1 mol / 65.38 g ) ( 2 mol AgNO3 / 1 mol Zn ) = 0.1331 mol AgNO3 needed
35.8 g AgNO3 ( 1 mol / 169.87 g ) ( 1 mol Zn / 2 mol AgNO3 ) = 0.1054 mol Zn needed

Therefore, the limiting reactant would be the zinc metal since it would be consumed completely in the reaction. The excess amount of AgNO3 would be:

0.2107 mol AgNO3 - 0.1331 mol AgNO3 = 0.0776 mol AgNO3 left ( 169.87 g / 1 mol ) = 13.19 g AgNO3 left

0.0665 mol Zn ( 2 mol Ag / 1 mol Zn) ( 107.9 g / 1 mol) = 14.3581 g Ag produced</span>

Consider the following reaction:C2H4(g) + F2(g) -----------&gt; C2H4F2(g) Delta H = -549 kJEstimate the carbon-fluorine bond ene
frutty [35]

Answer:

Bond energy of carbon-fluorine bond is 485 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Enthalpy change for a reaction,  is given as:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n_{i}\times (E_{bond})_{i}]-\sum [n_{j}\times (E_{bond})_{j}]

Where (E_{bond})_{i}  and (E_{bond})_{j} represents average bond energy in breaking "i" th bond and forming "j" th bond respectively.n_{i} and n_{j} are number of moles of bond break and form respectively.

In this reaction, one mol of C=C, four moles of C-H and one mol of F-F bonds are broken. One mol of C-C bond, four moles of C-H bonds and two moles of C-F bonds are formed

So, -549kJ=(1mol\times 614kJ/mo)+(4mol\times E_{C-H})+(1mol\times 154kJ/mol)-(1mol\times 347kJ/mol)-(4mol\times E_{C-H})-(2mol\times E_{C-F})

or, -549kJ=(1mol\times 614kJ/mo)+(1mol\times 154kJ/mol)-(1mol\times 347kJ/mol)-(2mol\times E_{C-F})

or, E_{C-F}=485kJ/mol

So bond energy of carbon-fluorine bond is 485 kJ/mol

How does increasing the temperature affect a reaction?
Luden [163]

Answer:A. An increase in temperature increases the reaction rate.

Explanation:because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.
