Answer : The standard enthalpy change for the combustion of CO(g) is, -283 kJ/mol

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The combustion of CO will be,

CO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_{rxn}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) C(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO(g)     \Delta H_1=-110.5kJ/mol

(2) C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)     \Delta H_2=-393.5kJ/mol

Now we are reversing reaction 1 and then adding both the equations, we get :

(1) CO(g)\rightarrow C(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)     \Delta H_1=110.5kJ/mol

(2) C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)     \Delta H_2=-393.5kJ/mol

The expression for enthalpy change for the reaction will be,

\Delta H_{rxn}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2

\Delta H_{rxn}=(110.5)+(-393.5)

\Delta H_{rxn}=-283kJ/mol

Therefore, the standard enthalpy change for the combustion of CO(g) is, -283 kJ/mol

A compound has a molar mass of 90. grams per mole and the empirical formula CH2O. What is the molecular formula of this compound
k0ka [10]

Answer:

C₃H₆O₃

Explanation:

Data:

EF = CH₂O

MM = 90. g/mol

Calculations:

EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016  + 16.00) u  = 30.03 u

The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.

MF = (EF)ₙ

n = \dfrac{\text{MF Mass}}{\text{EF Mass }} = \dfrac{\text{90. u}}{\text{30.03 u}} = 3.00  \approx 3

MF = (CH₂O)₃ = C₃H₆O₃

With what elements does nitrogen form ionic bonds?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Group 1 and 2 elements

Explanation:

Nitrogen, a non-metal will form ionic bonds with most group 1 and group 2 metals on the periodic table.

How does ionic bonds form?

  • They are bonds formed between a highly electronegative specie and one with very low electronegativity.
  • As such, ionic bonds forms between metals and non-metals
  • In this bond type, the metal due to its electropositive nature will transfer electrons to the non-metals for it to gain.
  • The non-metals becomes negatively charged as the metal is positively charged.
  • The electrostatic attraction between the two specie leads to the formation of ionic bonds.

Most metals in group 1 and 2 fits in this description. Some of them are calcium, magnesium, lithium, Barium e.t.c.

It mostly favors group 2 metals.
