When a bond is broken that should be a type of reaction. When bonds are broken sometimes heat is released.

Given that a chlorine-oxygen bond has an enthalpy of 243 kJ/mol , an oxygen-oxygen bond has an enthalpy of 498 kJ/mol , and the

Alecsey [184]

Explanation:

The chemical equation is as follows.

$\frac{1}{2}Cl_{2}(g) + \frac{1}{2}O_{2}(g) \rightarrow ClO(g)$

And, the given enthalpy is as follows.

$\frac{1}{2}Cl_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow ClO_{2}(g)$ ; $\Delta H$ = 102.5 kJ

Cl-Cl = 243 kJ/mol, O=O = 498 kJ/mol

Since, the bond enthalpy of Cl-Cl is not given so at first, we will calculate the value of Cl-Cl as follows.

$\Delta H = \sum \text{bond broken in reactants} - \sum \text{bond broken in products}$

102.5 = $[(\frac{1}{2})x + 498] - [(2)(243)]$

102.5 = $(\frac{1}{2})x + 498 - 486$

102.5 - 12 = $\frac{x}{2}$

x = 181 kJ

Now, total bond enthalpy of per mole of ClO is calculated as follows.

$\Delta H = \sum E(\text{bond broken in reactants}) - \sum (\text{bond broken in products})$

x = $[(\frac{1}{2})181 + (\frac{1}{2})498] - 243$

= 339.5 - 243

= 96.5 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that the value for the enthalpy of formation per mole of ClO(g) is 96.5 kJ.

Sulfur burns in the air to form 33.6L of sulfur dioxide. (S = 32, O =16, 64g of sulfur dioxide has 22.4L, 32g of oxygen has 22.4

ivolga24 [154]

The mass of oxygen reacted/required in this reaction is obtained as 48g.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with mass- volume or mass - mole relationship which ultimately depends on the balanced reaction equation.

Now, we have the reaction; S + O2 ------>SO2

If 1 mole of sulfur dioxide contains 22.4 L

x moles of sulfur dioxide contains 33.6L

x = 1.5 moles of sulfur dioxide.

Since the reaction is 1:1, the number if moles of oxygen required/reacted is 1.5 moles.

Mass of oxygen required/reacted = 1.5 moles * 32 g/mol = 48g

Consider these reactions:

Virty [35]

511.2 grams of chlorine gas consumed (with excess H-) when

1,342.0 kJ of energy is released from the system.

<h3></h3><h3>What is an exothermic reaction?</h3>

In thermochemistry, an exothermic reaction is a "reaction for which the overall standard enthalpy change ΔH⚬ is negative."

Given that 1 mole of chlorine releases -184.6 energy.

Then, we have to find the number of moles of chlorine when 1,342.0 kJ of energy is released from the system.

So, calculating number of moles of chlorine.

Moles = $\frac{-1,342.0 \;kJ}{-184.6\;kJ}$

Moles = 7.2 mole

Now, calculating number mass of chlorine.

$\rm Moles=\rm\frac{Mass}{Molar \;mass}$

Mass = 7.2 mole x 71 g/mole

Mass = 511.2 gram
