Answer : The value of
for the reaction is +571.6 kJ/mole.
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 this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression 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.
The given chemical reaction is,

Now we have to determine the value of
for the following reaction i.e,

According to the Hess’s law, if we reverse the reaction then the sign of
change.
So, the value
for the reaction will be:


Hence, the value of
for the reaction is +571.6 kJ/mole.

Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed and the change in enthalpy for the reaction is positive.
If we look at the reaction 2HgO + 45kcal ----> 2Hg + O2; we will notice that
i) 45kcal of energy was taken in (absorbed) for the reaction to occur
ii) The value of the reaction enthalpy is positive
For these two reasons, the reaction is an endothermic reaction as written.
Answer:
Repeated SN2 reactions occur leading to the formation of a racemic mixture
Explanation:
S-2-iodooctane is a chiral alkyl halide with an asymmetric carbon atom. The presence of an asymmetric carbon atom implies that it can rotate plane polarized light and thus lead to optical isomerism. The two configurations of the compound are R/S according to the Cahn-Prelong-Ingold system.
However, when S-2-iodooctane is treated with sodium iodide in acetone, repeated SN2 reactions occur since the iodide ion is both a good nucleophile and a good leaving group. Hence a racemic modification is formed in the system with time hence we end up with (±)- Iodooctane.
Answer : The change in boiling point is, 
Explanation :
Formula used :

where,
= change in boiling point = ?
i = Van't Hoff factor = 3 (for MgI₂ electrolyte)
= boiling point constant for water = 
m = molality = 0.615 m
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get


Therefore, the change in boiling point is,
