1.Draw the born-Haber lattice energy cycle for sodium chloride. Explain the concept of resonance using the nitrate ion structure
.
1 answer:
Answer:
1. Born Haber cycle is used to calculate enthalpy of formation of an ionic solid
2. Resonance structures are used to represent the bonding in some chemical species.
Explanation:
The Born–Haber cycle is a method popularly known in chemistry used in computing enthalpy. The enthalpy of formation of an ionic solid cannot be measured directly. The lattice enthalpy refers to the enthalpy change involved in the formation of an ionic compound from gaseous ions the process is exothermic process. A Born–Haber cycle works on the principle of Hess's law. It can be used to calculate the lattice enthalpy by comparing the standard enthalpy change of formation of the ionic compound from the elements to the enthalpy required to make gaseous ions from the elements.
Resonance is an idea introduced by Linus Pauling to explain chemical bonding from the valence bond perspective. The idea of resonance affords us the opportunity to describe the bonding in certain molecules by combining several structures called chemical or canonical structures. The real structure of the specie lie somewhere between the structures indicated by the resonance structures. The resonance structures of the nitrate ion are shown in the image attached.

Answer:
2 mol H₂O
Explanation:
With the reaction,
- 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)
1.55 moles of O₂ would react completely with ( 2*1.55 ) 3.1 moles of H₂. There are not as many moles of H₂, thus H₂ is the limiting reactant.
Now we <u>calculate the moles of H₂O produced</u>, <em>starting from the moles of limiting reactant</em>:
- 2.00 mol H₂ *
= 2 mol H₂O
