The standard enthalpy change for the reaction of SO3(g) with H2O(l) to yield H2SO4(aq) is ΔH∘ = -227.8 kJ . Use the following in

formation S(s)+O2(g)→SO2(g), ΔH∘ = -296.8kJ SO2(g)+12O2(g)→SO3(g) , ΔH∘ = -98.9kJ to calculate ΔH∘f for H2SO4(aq) (in kilojoules per mole). [For H2O(l),ΔH∘f = -285.8kJ/mol].

Answer:

-909.3KJ/mole

Explanation:

The heat of reaction is accessible from the heat of formation of reactants and products using the formula below:

ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants

Before we proceed, it is important to know that the enthalpy of formation of element is zero ,be it a single element or a molecule of an element.

From the reaction for the formation of sulphuric acid, we know we need to know the heat of formation of sulphur (vi) oxide and water. The examiner is quite generous and have us for water already.

Now we need to calculate for sulphur (vi) oxide. This is calculated as follows:

We first calculate for sulphur(iv)oxide. This can be obtained from the reaction between sulphur and oxygen. The calculation goes thus:

ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants

ΔH = [ 1 mole suphur(iv) oxide × x] - [ (1 mole of elemental sulphur × 0) + (1 mole of elemental oxygen × 0]

We were already told this is equal to -296.8KJ. Hence the heat of formation of sulphur(iv) oxide is -296.8KJ.

We then proceed to the second stage.

Now, here we have 1 mole sulphur (iv) oxide reacting with 0.5 mole oxygen molecule.

We go again :

ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants

ΔH = [ 1 mole of sulphur (vi) oxide × y] - [ (1 mole of sulphur (iv) oxide × -296.8) + (0.5 mole of oxygen × 0)].

We already know that the ΔH here equals -98.9KJ.

Hence, -98.9 = y + 296.8

y = -296.8KJ - 98.9KJ = -395.7KJ

We now proceed to the final part of the calculation which ironically comes first in the series of sentences.

Now, we want to calculate the standard heat of formation for sulphuric acid. From the reaction, we can see that one mole of sulphur (vi) oxide, reacted with one mole of water to yield one mole of sulphuric acid.

Mathematically, we go again :

ΔH = Σ ΔHf products - Σ ΔHf reactants

ΔH = [ 1 mole of sulphuric acid × z] - [( 1 mole of sulphur vi oxide × -395.7) + ( 1 mole of water × -285.8)].

Now, we know that the ΔH for this particular reaction is -227.8KJ

We then proceed to to open the bracket.

-227.8 = z - (-395.7 - 285.8)

-227.8 = z - ( -681.5)

-227.8 = z + 681.5

z = -227.8-681.5 = -909.3KJ

Hence, ΔH∘f for sulphuric acid is -909.3KJ/mol

What is the reason behind that the melting and boiling point of iron is more than that of sodium? Write any two differences betw
liraira [26]

Answer:

difference between metal and alloy is that the metal is a pure substance whereas the alloy is a mixture of two or more components.

Explanation:

Mostly the metalloids have the appearance just like the metallic appearance And also they are the brittle one's . Boron and silicon are the example. Note; By combining with other metals metalloid can form the alloy

A metal (M) forms an oxide with the formula MO. If the oxide contains 7.17 % O by mass, what is the identity of the metal?
Nataly_w [17]

The metal is lead, Pb.

One unit of the oxide contains one atom of O (16.00 u).

∴ Mass of oxide = 16.00 u O × (100 u MO/7.17 u O) = 223.15 u MO

Mass of M = mass of MO – mass of O = 223.15 u -16.00 u = 207.2 u

The only element with an atomic mass of 207.2 u is lead (Pb) and the formula of the oxide is PbO.

Solid ammonium chloride, NH4Cl, is formed by the reaction of gaseous ammonia, NH3, and hydrogen chloride, HCl. NH3(g)+HCl(g)⟶NH4
Mashutka [201]

9.41 atm is the pressure in atmospheres of the gas remaining in the flask

<h3>What is the pressure in atmospheres?</h3>

The equation NH3(g) + HCl(g) ==> NH4Cl(s) is balanced.

Divide the moles of each reactant by its coefficient in the balanced equation, and the limiting reagent is identified as the one whose value is less. With the issue we now have...

6.44 g NH3 times 1 mol NH3/17 g equals 0.3688 moles of NH3 ( 1 = 0.3688)

HCl: 6.44 g of HCl times one mole of HCl every 36.5 g equals 0.1764 moles ( 1 = 0.1764). CONTROLLING REAGENT

NH4Cl will this reaction produce in grams

0.1764 moles of HCl multiplied by one mole of NH4Cl per mole of HCl results in 9.44 g of NH4Cl (3 sig. figs.)

the gas pressure, measured in atmospheres, that is still in the flask

NH3(g) plus HCl(g) results in NH4Cl (s)

0.3688......0.1764............0..........

Initial

-0.1764....-0.1764........+0.1764...Change

Equilibrium: 0.1924.......0...............+0.1924

There are 0.1924 moles of NH3 and no other gases in the flask. This is at a temperature of 25 °C (+273 = 298 °K) in a volume of 0.5 L. After that, we may determine the pressure by using the ideal gas law (P).

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V = 0.1924 mol, 0.0821 latm/mol, and 298 Kmol / 0.5 L

P = 9.41 atm

9.41 atm is the pressure in atmospheres of the gas remaining in the flask
