In order to <span>decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container, you need to decrease the temperature of the container. The volume of the system is rigid so it means volume is constant. By the ideal gas law, temperature and pressure are directly related. Increasing the temperature, increases the pressure and the opposite to happens.</span>
Answer:
-125 kJ
Explanation:
You calculate the energy required to break all the bonds in the reactants. Then you subtract the energy to break all the bonds in the products.
H₂C=CH₂ + H₂ ⟶ H₃C-CH₃
Bonds: 4C-H + 1C=C 1H-H 6C-H + 1C-C
D/kJ·mol⁻¹: 413 612 436 413 347
The formula relating ΔHrxn and bond dissociation energies (D) is
ΔHrxn = Σ(Dreactants) – Σ(Dproducts)
(Note: This is an exception to the rule. All other thermochemical reactions are “products – reactants”. With bond energies, it’s “reactants – products”. The reason comes from the way we define bond energies.)
<em>For the reactant</em>s:
Σ(Dreactants) = 4 × 413 + 1 × 612 + 1 × 436 = 2700 kJ
<em>For the products:</em>
Σ(Dproducts) = 6 × 413 + 1 × 347 = 2825 kJ
<em>For the system</em>
:
ΔHrxn = 2700 - 2825 = -125 kJ
Answer:
I believe the answer is D
