The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The normal boiling point of acetic acid is 118.1°C. If a sample of the acetic acid is at 125.2°C, predict the signs of ∆H, ∆S, and ∆G for the boiling process at this temperature.

A. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G < 0

B. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G > 0

C. ∆H > 0, ∆S < 0, ∆G < 0

D. ∆H < 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G > 0

E. ∆H < 0, ∆S < 0, ∆G > 0

Answer:

A. ∆H > 0, ∆S > 0, ∆G < 0

Explanation:

During boiling, a liquid is converted to vapour. This is a phase change for which heat is absorbed because energy must be taken in to break the intermolecular bonds in the liquid before it can be converted to a gas. Hence ∆H>0

Secondly, a phase change from liquid to gas leads to an increase in entropy hence ∆S>0.

Thirdly, the process is spontaneous. For every spontaneous process ∆G<0

Consider this reaction mechanism: Step 1: Mo(CO)6→ Mo(CO)5 + CO Step 2: Mo(CO)5 + P(CH3)3→ Mo(CO)5P(CH3)3 Which of these is an i
Alja [10]

Answer:

Mo(CO)5 is the intermediate in this reaction mechanism.

Explanation:

The reaction mechanism describes the sequence of elementary reactions that must occur to go from reactants to products. Reaction intermediates are formed in one step and then consumed in a later step of the reaction mechanism.

In this reaction mechanism, Mo(CO)5 is the product of 1st reaction and then it is used as a reactant in 2nd reaction. So, Mo(CO)5 is the reaction intermediates.

The overall balanced equation would be,

Mo(CO)6 + P(CH3) ↔ CO + Mo(CO)5 +  P(CH3)3

Cinnamon owes its flavor and odor to cinnamaldehyde (C9H8O). Determine the boiling point elevation of a solution of 92.7 mg of c
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The boiling point elevation is 3.53 °C

Explanation:

∆Tb = Kb × m

∆Tb is the boiling point elevation of the solution

Kb is the molal boiling point elevation constant of CCl4 = 5.03 °C/m

m is the molality of the solution is given by moles of solute (C9H8O) divided by mass of solvent (CCl4) in kilogram

Moles of solute = mass/MW =

mass = 92.7 mg = 92.7/1000 = 0.0927 g

MW = 132 g/mol

Moles of solute = 0.0927/132 = 7.02×10^-4 mol

Mass of solvent = 1 g = 1/1000 = 0.001 kg

m = 7.02×10^-4 mol ÷ 0.001 kg = 0.702 mol/kg

∆Tb = 5.03 × 0.702 = 3.53 °C (to 2 decimal places)

When a student mixes 50 mL of 1.0 M HCl and 50 mL of 1.0 M NaOH in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature of the resultant so
zmey [24]

Answer: 54.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the moles of HCl and NaOH.

\text{Moles of HCl}=\text{Concentration of HCl}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.0M\times 0.05=0.05mole

\text{Moles of NaOH}=\text{Concentration of NaOH}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.0\times 0.05L=0.05mole

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of HCl neutralizes by 1 mole of NaOH

So, 0.05 mole of HCl neutralizes by 0.05 mole of NaOH

Thus, the number of neutralized moles = 0.05 mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of water:

As we know that the density of water is 1 g/ml. So, the mass of water will be:

The volume of water = 50ml+50ml=100ml

\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}=1g/ml\times 100ml=100g

Now we have to calculate the heat absorbed during the reaction.

q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

where,

q = heat absorbed = ?

c = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m = mass of water = 100 g

T_{final} = final temperature of water = 27.5^0C

T_{initial} = initial temperature of metal = 21.0^0C

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=100g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (27.5-21.0)^0C

q=2719.6J=2.72kJ

Thus, the heat released during the neutralization = 2.72 KJ

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of neutralization per mole of HCl:

0.05 moles of HCl releases heat = 2.72 KJ

1 mole of HCl releases heat =\frac{2.72}{0.05}\times 1=54.4KJ

Thus the enthalpy change for the reaction in kJ per mol of HCl is 54.4 kJ
