Given the values of ΔGfo given below in kJ/mol, calculate the value of ΔGo in kJ for the combustion of 1 mole of butane to form

carbon dioxide and liquid water. ΔGfo (C4H10(g)) = -17 ΔGfo (CO2(g)) = -395 ΔGfo (H2O(l)) = -238

Answer:

Δ_rG=-2753kJ

Explanation:

Hello,

Butane's combustion is:

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2} O_2-->4CO_2+5H_2O

Now the change in the Gibbs free energy for this reaction is computed via (don't forget that oxygen's Gibbs free energy of formation is 0 since it is an element):

Δ_rG=4Δ_fG_{CO_2}+5Δ_fG_{H_2O}-Δ_fG_{C_4H_{10}}

Δ_rG=4(-395kJ/mol)+5(-238kJ/mol)-(-17kJ/mol)

Δ_rG=-2753kJ/mol

Now, since the calculation is done for 1 mol of butane, the change in the Gibbs free energy for this fuel is:

Δ_rG=-2753kJ

Best regards.

Identifying a trend in temperature change over time
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

More than three decade the temperature of earth is increasing equally by the rate of 0.8 Celsius (1.4 Fahrenheit). It is going to be very harmful for the human being as well animals.  The global warming is the main reason and hole in the ozone layer had been the cause of increasing the temperature of the earth. Humans are also involved in cause in temperature of earth by cutting forests and making land suitable for residence and not planting more trees instead of the cut trees.

In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance. What is the total resistance?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

17 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance.

We need to find the total resistance of the circuit.

The equivalent resistance for series combination is given by :

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+....

For 17 light bulbs, the equivalent resistance is given by :

R_{eq}=R+R+....\text{upto 17 terms}\\\\R_{eq}=17R\\\\=17

Hence, the total resistance is 17 ohms. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Determine total H for bonds broken and formed, the overall change in H, and the final answer with units. Is it ENDOthermic or EX
Mrac [35]
  • E(Bonds broken) = 1371 kJ/mol reaction
  • E(Bonds formed) = 1852 kJ/mol reaction
  • ΔH = -481 kJ/mol.
  • The reaction is exothermic.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

2 H-H + O=O → 2 H-O-H

There are two moles of H-H bonds and one mole of O=O bonds in one mole of reactants. All of them will break in the reaction. That will absorb

  • E(Bonds broken) = 2 × 436 + 499 = 1371 kJ/mol reaction.
  • ΔH(Breaking bonds) = +1371 kJ/mol

Each mole of the reaction will form two moles of water molecules. Each mole of H₂O molecules have two moles O-H bonds. Two moles of the molecule will have four moles of O-H bonds. Forming all those bond will release

  • E(Bonds formed) = 2 × 2 × 463 = 1852 kJ/mol reaction.
  • ΔH(Forming bonds) = - 1852 kJ/mol

Heat of the reaction:

  • \Delta H_{\text{rxn}} = \Delta H(\text{Breaking bonds}) + \Delta H(\text{Forming bonds})\\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = +1371 + (-1852) \\\phantom{ \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}} = -481 \; \text{kJ} / \text{mol}

\Delta H_{\text{rxn}} is negative. As a result, the reaction is exothermic.
