Answer:

no. of water molecules associated to each molecule of MnCl_2 = 4

Explanation:

Mass of MnCl_2 before heating = 19.8 g

Mass of MnCl_2 after heating = 12.6 g

Difference in mass of MnCl_2 before and after heating

                                 = 19.8 - 12.6 = 7.2 g

Difference in mass corresponds to mass of water driven out.

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

No. of moles of water = \frac{7.2}{18} = 0.4\ mol

Mass of MnCl_2 obtained after heating is mass of anhydrous MnCl_2.

Mass of anhydrous MnCl_2 = 12.6 g

Molar mass of MnCl_2 = 125.9 g/mol

No. of mol of anhydrous MnCl_2 = \frac{125.9}{125.9} = 0.1\ mol

so,

0.1 mol of MnCl_2 have 0.4 mol of water

1 mol of MnCl_2 will have = \frac{0.4}{0.1} =4\ mol

Hence, no. of water molecules associated to each molecule of MnCl_2 = 4

Calculate ΔH o rxn for the following: CH4(g) + Cl2(g) → CCl4(l) + HCl(g)[unbalanced] ΔH o f [CH4(g)] = −74.87 kJ/mol ΔH o f [CCl
anzhelika [568]

Answer:  ΔH for the reaction is -277.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

CH_4(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow CCl_4(l)+HCl(g)

The expression for enthalpy change is,

\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H(products)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H(reactant)]

\Delta H=[(n_{CCl_4}\times \Delta H_{CCl_4})+(n_{HCl}\times B.E_{HCl}) ]-[(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})+n_{Cl_2}\times \Delta H_{Cl_2}]

where,

n = number of moles

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

\Delta H=[(1\times -139)+(1\times -92.31) ]-[(1\times -74.87)+(1\times 121.0]

\Delta H=-277.4kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, -277.4 kJ
