Answer:

The formula of the gas produced is $PH_3$ .

Explanation:

Whenever metal phosphides reacts with water they form phosphine gas and alkaline solution of metal hydroxide.

$M_3P_x(s)+3xH_2O(l)\rightarrow 3M(OH)_x(aq)+xPH_3(g)$

So, when sodium phosphide is treated with water it gives phosphine gas and sodium hydroxide solution as a product.

$Na_3P(s)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow 3NaOH(aq)+PH_3(g)$

The formula of the gas produced is $PH_3$ .

Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction at 25 ∘ C. Standard enthalpy of formation values can be found in this li

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

-179.06 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced reaction.

HCl(g) + NaOH(s) ⟶ NaCl(s) + H₂O(l)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction (ΔH°r) using the following expression.

ΔH°r = 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaCl(s)) + 1 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O(l)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(HCl(g)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaOH(s))

ΔH°r = 1 mol × (-411.15 kJ/mol) + 1 mol × (-285.83 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-92.31 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-425.61 kJ/mol)

ΔH°r = -179.06 kJ
