Under what conditions is the change in internal energy, δe rxn , equal to the heat evolved in a chemical reaction?

1 answer:

4 0

the first law says that the change in internal energy of a system is given by:

δE = δq + δw

where δE is the i change in internal energy, 

δq is the amount of thermal energy added to the system from the surroundings 

δw is the l work done *on* the system *by* the surroundings. 

For a system only undergoing expansion work,
δw = -pδV, so: 

δE = δq - p δV 
when δV = 0, then δe=δq

A combustion reaction will always be associated with a change in entropy that will be:________.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Option (A) : Positive

Explanation:

A combustion reaction will always be associated with a change in entropy that is Positive due to the gaseous products released. Hence, there is a large positive entropy change.

Homogenized milk is a colloid. It has been treated to prevent its different components from separating when it stands. When non-

frez [133]

Answer:

Heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

A homogeneous mixture is defined as a mixture in which the constituents of the mixture are uniformly distributed. A typical example of a homogeneous mixture is when a salt is dissolved in water.

A heterogeneous mixture refers to a kind of mixture whereby the composition of the mixture is not uniform. A typically example of a heterogeneous mixture is non-homogenized milk.

Since non-homogenized milk is not homogeneous, the cream rises to the top and separates from the rest of the mixture because the emulsion has not been stabilized. However, homogenized milk is just milk whose emulsion has been stabilized the cream does not separate when left to stand.

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{2.20 g Pb}}$

Explanation:

They gave us the masses of two reactants and asked us to determine the mass of the product.

This looks like a limiting reactant problem.

1. Assemble the information

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ: 239.27 32.00 207.2

2PbS + 3O₂ ⟶ 2Pb + 2SO₃

m/g: 2.54 1.88

2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

$\text{Moles of PbS} = \text{2.54 g PbS } \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol PbS}}{\text{239.27 g PbS}} = \text{0.010 62 mol PbS}\\\\\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{1.88 g O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}} = \text{0.058 75 mol O}_{2}$

3. Calculate the moles of Pb from each reactant

$\textbf{From PbS:}\\\text{Moles of Pb} = \text{0.010 62 mol PbS} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Pb}}{\text{2 mol PbS}} = \text{0.010 62 mol Pb}\\\\\textbf{From O}_{2}:\\\text{Moles of Pb} =\text{0.058 75 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Pb}}{\text{3 mol O}_{2}}= \text{0.039 17 mol Pb}\\\\\text{PbS is the $\textbf{limiting reactant}$ because it gives fewer moles of Pb}$

4. Calculate the mass of Pb

$\text{ Mass of Pb} = \text{0.010 62 mol Pb} \times \dfrac{\text{207.2 g Pb}}{\text{1 mol Pb}} = \textbf{2.20 g Pb}\\\\\text{The reaction produces $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.20 g Pb}}$}$
