Calculate ΔH o rxn for the following: CH4(g) + Cl2(g) → CCl4(l) + HCl(g)[unbalanced] ΔH o f [CH4(g)] = −74.87 kJ/mol ΔH o f [CCl

anzhelika [568]

Answer: ΔH for the reaction is -277.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$CH_4(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow CCl_4(l)+HCl(g)$

The expression for enthalpy change is,

$\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H(products)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H(reactant)]$

$\Delta H=[(n_{CCl_4}\times \Delta H_{CCl_4})+(n_{HCl}\times B.E_{HCl}) ]-[(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})+n_{Cl_2}\times \Delta H_{Cl_2}]$

where,

n = number of moles

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$\Delta H=[(1\times -139)+(1\times -92.31) ]-[(1\times -74.87)+(1\times 121.0]$

$\Delta H=-277.4kJ$

Therefore, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, -277.4 kJ

When 0.250 moles of KCl are added to 200.0 g of water in a constant pressure calorimeter a temperature change is observed. Given

777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

Upon dissolution of KCl heat is generated and temperature of the solution raises.

Therefore, heat generated by dissolving 0.25 moles of KCl will be as follows.

$17.24 kJ/mol \times 0.25 mol$

= 4.31 kJ

or, = 4310 J (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Mass of solution will be the sum of mass of water and mass of KCl.

Mass of Solution = mass of water + (no. of moles of KCl × molar mass)

= 200 g + $(0.25 mol \times 54.5 g/mol)$

= 200 g + 13.625 g

= 213.625 g

Relation between heat, mass and change in temperature is as follows.

Q = $mC \Delta T$

where, C = specific heat of water = $4.184 J/g^{o}C$

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $mC \Delta T$

4310 J = $213.625 g \times 4.184 J/g^{o}C \times \Delta T$

$\Delta T = 4.82^{o}C$

Thus, we can conclude that rise in temperature will be $4.82^{o}C$ .

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Y is a 3-chloro-3-methylpentane.

The structure is shown in the figure attached.

Explanation:

The radical chlorination of 3-methylpentane can lead to a tertiary substituted carbon (Y) and to a secondary one (X).

The E2 elimination mechanism, as shown in the figure, will happen with a simulyaneous attack from the base and elimination of the chlorine. This means that primary and secondary substracts undergo the E2 mechanism faster than tertiary substracts.
