<u>Given:</u>

Mass of Ag = 1.67 g

Mass of Cl = 2.21 g

Heat evolved = 1.96 kJ

<u>To determine:</u>

The enthalpy of formation of AgCl(s)

<u>Explanation:</u>

The reaction is:

2Ag(s) + Cl2(g) → 2AgCl(s)

Calculate the moles of Ag and Cl from the given masses

Atomic mass of Ag = 108 g/mol

# moles of Ag = 1.67/108 = 0.0155 moles

Atomic mass of Cl = 35 g/mol

# moles of Cl = 2.21/35 = 0.0631 moles

Since moles of Ag << moles of Cl, silver is the limiting reagent.

Based on reaction stoichiometry: # moles of AgCl formed = 0.0155 moles

Enthalpy of formation of AgCl = 1.96 kJ/0.0155 moles = 126.5 kJ/mol

Ans: Formation enthalpy = 126.5 kJ/mol

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy of formation of AgCl is -127.3 kJ/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Given mass of silver chloride = 2.21 g

Molar mass of silver chloride = 143.32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of silver chloride}=\frac{2.21g}{143.32g/mol}=0.0154mol

<u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

To calculate the enthalpy change of formation of AgCl, we use the equation:

\Delta H_f_{AgCl}=\frac{q}{n}

where,

q = amount of heat released = -1.96 kJ

n = number of moles of AgCl = 0.0154 moles

\Delta H_f_{AgCl} = enthalpy of formation of silver chloride

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H_f_{AgCl}=\frac{-1.96kJ}{0.0154mol}=127.3kJ/mol

Hence, the enthalpy of formation of AgCl is -127.3 kJ/mol

What is the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon whose molar mass is 536 g/mol and contains 89.55 w/w% carbon?
leonid [27]

Given the percentage composition of HC as C → 81.82 % and H → 18.18 %

So the ratio of number if atoms of C and H in its molecule can will be:

C : H = 81.82 12 : 18.18 1 C : H = 6.82 : 18.18 = 6.82 6.82 : 18.18 6.82 = 1 : 2.66 ≈ 3 : 8

So the Empirical Formula of hydrocarbon is:

C 3 H 8

As the mass of one litre of hydrocarbon is same as that of C O 2 The molar mass of the HC will be same as that of C O 2 i.e 44 g mol

Now let Molecular formula of the HC be ( C 3 H 8 ) n

Using molar mass of C and H the molar mass of the HC from its molecular formula is:

( 3 × 12 + 8 × 1 ) n = 44 n So 44 n = 44 ⇒ n = 1

Hence the molecular formula of HC is C 3 H 8

Does that help?

Arada [10]

When a compound containing C, H and O is completely combusted in air what reactant besides the hydrocarbon is involved in the reaction is Oxygen.

<h3>What is hydrocarbon?</h3>

A hydrocarbon is an organic molecule composed completely of hydrogen and carbon in organic chemistry. Group 14 hydrides include hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons are often colourless and hydrophobic, with scents that are weak or exemplified by gasoline and lighter fluid. They exist in a wide range of molecular forms and phases, including gases (like methane and propane), liquids (like hexane and benzene), low melting solids (like paraffin wax and naphthalene), and polymers (such as polyethylene and polystyrene). Hydrocarbon refers to naturally occurring petroleum, natural gas, and coal, as well as their hydrocarbon derivatives and refined forms, in the fossil fuel industry. The primary source of energy on the planet is the combustion of hydrocarbons.
