Answer : The enthalpy for the combustion of 1 mole of pentane is -3024.8 kJ

Explanation :

Enthalpy change : It is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(reactant)]

The equilibrium reaction follows:

C_5H_{12}(g)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 5CO_2(g)+6H_2O(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(n_{(CO_2)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2)})+(n_{(H_2O)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O)})]-[(n_{(C_5H_{12})}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C_5H_{12})})+(n_{(O_2)}\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2)})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(C_5H_{12}(g))}=-119.9kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(5\times -393.5)+(6\times -241.8)]-[(1\times -393.5)+(8\times 0)=-3024.8kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy for the combustion of 1 mole of pentane is -3024.8 kJ

<span>The enthalpy of the reaction in an aqueous solution can be determined by taking the difference between the summation of enthalpies of the products multiplied to their respective stoichiometric coefficient and the summation of enthalpies of the reactants multiplied to their respective  stoichiometric coefficient. In this case, the equation is -241(6) + -393.5 (5) -[-119.9] equal to 641.4 kJ </span>

According to the law of conservation of mass, what is the same on both sides of a balanced chemical equation?
Firlakuza [10]

According to the law of conservation of mass, what is the same on both sides of a balanced chemical equation?

A. the volume of the substances

B. the subscripts

C. the total mass of atoms

D. the coefficients

Answer:

A balanced equation demonstrates the conservation of mass by having the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.

Explanation:

Every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. ... Use coefficients of products and reactants to balance the number of atoms of an element on both sides of a chemical equation.

Consider the balanced equation for the combustion of methane.

CH

4

+

2O

2

→

CO

2

+

2H

2

O


All balanced chemical equations must have the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.


In this equation, we have 1

C

atom, 4

H

atoms, and 4

O

atoms on each side of the arrow.


The number of atoms does not change, so the total mass of all the atoms is the same before and after the reaction. Mass is conserved.


Here is a video that discusses the importance of balancing a chemical equation.

Which transition metals usually form only one monatomic cation? select all that apply.
lyudmila [28]

Zn, Cd, and Ag are transition metals that usually form only one monoatomic cation.

A monatomic cation is a cation made of only one atom.

Cations are positively charged ions, in this example Ag⁺, Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺.

These cations form only one type of ion, while iron and copper form more than one type of cations.

Iron and copper form cations with different charges (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cu⁺, Cu²⁺).

It depends on electron configuration which type would be formed.

Electron configuration of zinc atom: ₃₀Zn 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s²

Transition metals are elements in the d-block of the Periodic table.

Which macromolecules break apart by hydrolysis?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Dehydration synthesis reactions build molecules up and generally require energy, while hydrolysis reactions break molecules down and generally release energy. Carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids are built up and broken down via these types of reactions, although the monomers involved are different in each case.

In the reaction mg 2hcl right arrow. mgcl2 h2 which element’s oxidation number does not change? cl mg h
netineya [11]

The correct answer is Cl.

Chlorine is a substance that's employed in industry and is present in a number of household goods. There are times when chlorine takes the form of toxic gas. Chlorine gas can be converted into a liquid by applying pressure and cooling so that it can be transported and stored. The term "oxidation number" refers to the number of electrons that an element's atom either loses or gains during the production of a compound. The charge that an atom seems to have when forming ionic connections with other heteroatoms is used to define an atom's oxidation number. Even if it develops a covalent bond, an atom with a higher electronegativity is given a negative oxidation state.
