Consider the following intermediate chemical equations.

Chemistry
1 answer:
QveST [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 250 kJ

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 Hess’s law, the chemical equation can be treated as algebraic expressions 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.

P_4(s)+6Cl_2\rightarrow 4PCl_3  \Delta H_1=-2439kJ (1)

4PCl_5(g)\rightarrow P_4(s)+10Cl_2(g)  \Delta H_2=3438kJ (2)

Net chemical equation:

PCl_5(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)  \Delta H=? (3)

Adding 1 and 2 we get,

4PCl_5(g)\rightarrow 4PCl_3(g)+4Cl_2 \Delta H_3=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2=-2439+3438=1000kJ   (4)

Now dividing equation (4) by 4, we get

PCl_5(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)+Cl_2

\Delta H=\frac{\Delta H_3}{4}=\frac{1000kJ}{4}=250kJ   (4)

Henry finds an element that is light blue, breaks easily in his hand, and does not reflect light. How should Henry classify the
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The options are not given, here are the options.

metal

a. Metal

b. a metalloid

c. a non-metal

d. a gas

The correct option is C.

Non metal

Explanation:

Henry should classify it as non metals because non metals are substances or elements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity they break easily I .e meaning they lack the ducibility of metals, meaning they cannot be stretched, they are brittle, they are not shiny and does not reflect light, they have high electronegativities that is they have atoms that can hold electrons to what they have.

How many moles of Fluorine (F2) are<br><br> needed to completely react 8.0<br><br> moles of NF3?
Anna [14]

Answer:

12 moles of F₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of F₂ needed to produce 8 moles of NF₃. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, Xmol of F₂ will react to produce 8 moles of NF₃ i.e

Xmol of F₂ = (3 × 8)/2

Xmol of F₂ = 12 moles

Thus, 12 moles of F₂ is needed for the reaction.

Consider the following three-step reaction pathway.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

NO \longrightarrow N_2O_2 \longrightarrow N_2O \longrightarrow N2

Explanation:

The intermediates are the products of all the steps of the reaction pathway, with the exception of the last one. So the intermediates will be:

  • N2O2 from the first step
  • N2O from the second step

The list from reactant to final product:

NO \longrightarrow N_2O_2 \longrightarrow N_2O \longrightarrow N2

<em>Note: the water is considered a by-product, given that is not the product of interest in this steps.</em>
