A redox reaction is a reaction that involves both reduction and oxidation, it involves a reducing agent which looses electrons and undergoes oxidation and an oxidizing agent that gains electrons (reduction). I believe the following are true about redox reactions; Electrons move from one substance to another, One atom gains electrons and one looses electrons.
Answer:
ΔH⁰(11.4g NH₄NO₃) = -30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of NH₄NO₃(s) given) (exothermic)
Explanation:
3NH₄NO₃(s) + C₁₀H₂₂(l) + 14O₂(g) => 3N₂(g) + 17H₂O(g) + 10CO₂(g)
ΔH⁰(f): 3(-365.6)Kj 1(-301)Kj 14(0)Kj 3(0)Kj 17(-241.8)Kj 10(-393.5)Kj
= -1096.8Kj = -301Kj = 0Kj = 0Kj = -4110.6Kj = -3930.5Kj
ΔHₙ°(rxn) = ∑
(ΔH˚(f)products) - ∑(ΔH˚(f)reactants)
= [3(0)Kj + 17(-241.8)Kj + (-393.5)Kj] - [(-(1096.8)Kj + (-301)Kj + (0)Kj]
= [-(8041.1) - (-1397.8)]Kj
= -6643.3Kj (for 3 moles NH₄NO₃ used in above equation)
∴ Standard Heat of Rxn = -6643.3Kj/3moles = -214.8Kj/mole NH₄NO₃(s)
ΔH°(rxn for 14.11g NH₄NO₃(s)) = (11.4g/80.04g·mol⁻¹)(-214.8Kj/mol) = 30.5937Kj ≅ 30.59Kj (4 sig. figs. ~mass of NH₄NO₃(s) given)
It depends on the pH level of the water.
Answer : The amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ
Explanation :
Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the water
![q=[q_1+q_2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=q%3D%5Bq_1%2Bq_2%5D)
![q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=q%3D%5Bc_1%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20T%2Bm_2%5Ctimes%20c_2%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20T%5D)
where,
q = heat released by the reaction
= heat absorbed by the calorimeter
= heat absorbed by the water
= specific heat of calorimeter = 
= specific heat of water = 
= mass of water = 254 g
= change in temperature = 
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
![q=[(783J/^oC\times -2.28^oC)+(254g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times -2.28^oC)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=q%3D%5B%28783J%2F%5EoC%5Ctimes%20-2.28%5EoC%29%2B%28254g%5Ctimes%204.184J%2Fg%5EoC%5Ctimes%20-2.28%5EoC%29%5D)
Therefore, the amount of heat evolved by a reaction is, 4.81 kJ
