<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

AfilCa [17]

Answer: Hammer, anvil and stirrup are small bones in the ear behind ear drum and before cochlea. These bones helps in transfering the vibrations from ear drum to the cochlea which is further passed to auditory nerve and then to brain

The wastewater solution from a factory containing high levels of salts needs to be diluted before it can be released into the en
Vesna [10]

Answer:

3.5 atm

Explanation:

As stated in the question pressure is required to counteract the natural tendency  for water to dilute the more concentrated solution. The difference in concentrations will give us the answer using the osmotic pressure equation.

π = ( n/v)  RT where n/v is the molarity (mol/L), R is the gas constant and T is the temperature.

The difference in osmotic pressure of the solutions is:

Δπ = Δ c RT where c is the difference in molar concentrations.

pressure required = Δπ = (0.190 - 0.048) M x 0.821 Latm/Kmol x 298 K

= 3.47 atm

We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as 
     H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)

We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
     mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) * 
                           (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)                        
                        = 4.056 g H2

We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
     mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
                             (70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
                          = 142.4 g Cl2 

Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.
