Use bond energies to determine δhrxn for the reaction between ethanol and hydrogen chloride. ch3ch2oh(g)+hcl(g)âch3ch2cl(g)+h2o
(g)
1 answer:
For this reaction to proceed, the following bond breaking should occur:
*one C-O bond* one H-Cl bond
After, the following bond formations should occur:*one C-Cl bond*one O-H bond
Now, add the bond energies for the respective bond energies which can be found in the attached picture. For bond formations, energy is negative. For bond breaking, energy is positive.
ΔHrxn = (1)(358) + (1)(431) + 1(-328) + 1(-463) =<em> -2 kJ</em>
*one C-O bond* one H-Cl bond
After, the following bond formations should occur:*one C-Cl bond*one O-H bond
Now, add the bond energies for the respective bond energies which can be found in the attached picture. For bond formations, energy is negative. For bond breaking, energy is positive.
ΔHrxn = (1)(358) + (1)(431) + 1(-328) + 1(-463) =<em> -2 kJ</em>

Answer :
(a) 1.000 g of compound containing carbon and hydrogen is, 0.922 g and 0.0769 g respectively.
(b) There is no other element present in the compound.
Explanation :
(a) Now we have to determine the masses of C and H in the sample.
The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:
where, 'x' and 'y' are the subscripts of Carbon and hydrogen respectively.
We are given:
Mass of
Mass of
We know that:
Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol
Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol
For calculating the mass of carbon:
In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.
So, in 3.381 g of carbon dioxide, of carbon will be contained.
For calculating the mass of hydrogen:
In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.
So, in 0.692 g of water, of hydrogen will be contained.
Thus, 1.000 g of compound containing carbon and hydrogen is, 0.922 g and 0.0769 g respectively.
(b) Now we have to determine the compound contain any other elements or not.
Mass carbon + Mass of hydrogen = 0.922 g + 0.0769 g = 0.999 g ≈ 1 g
This means that there is no other element present in the compound.
