Answer: The correct answer is -297 kJ.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we want to modify each of the equations given to get the equation at the bottom of the photo. To do this, we realize that we need SO2 on the right side of the equation (as a product). This lets us know that we must reverse the first equation. This gives us:

2SO3 —> O2 + 2SO2 (196 kJ)

Remember that we take the opposite of the enthalpy change (reverse the sign) when we reverse the equation.

Now, both equations have double the coefficients that we would like (for example, there is 2S in the second equation when we need only S). This means we should multiply each equation (and their enthalpy changes) by 1/2. This gives us:

SO3 —>1/2O2 + SO2 (98 kJ)

S + 3/2O2 —> SO3 (-395 kJ)

Now, we add the two equations together. Notice that the SO3 in the reactants in the first equation and the SO3 in the products of the second equation cancel. Also note that O2 is present on both sides of the equation, so we must subtract 3/2 - 1/2, giving us a net 1O2 on the left side of the equation.

S + O2 —> SO2

Now, we must add the enthalpies together to get our final answer.

-395 kJ + 98 kJ = -297 kJ

Hope this helps!

Endothermic reactions, on the other hand, absorb heat and/or light from their surroundings. For example, decomposition reactions are usually endothermic. In endothermic reactions, the products have more enthalpy than the reactants. Thus, an endothermic reaction is said to have a positive<span> enthalpy of reaction. This means that the energy required to break the bonds in the reactants is more than the energy released when new bonds form in the products; in other words, the reaction requires energy to proceed.</span>

The equilibrium constant for the reaction 2NO2(g) N2O4(g) is Keq = . If a sample at equilibrium was found to contain 0.058 M NO2
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

\boxed{3.6}

Explanation:

                  2NO₂ ⇌ N₂O₄

E/mol·L⁻¹:   0.058     0.012

K_{\text{eq}} = \dfrac{\text{[N$_{2}$O$_{4}$]}}{\text{[NO$_{2}$]$^{2}$}} = \dfrac{0.012}{0.058^{2}} = \mathbf{3.6} \\\\

\text{The $K_{\text{eq}}$ value would be $\boxed{\mathbf{3.6}}$}
