Answer:

8.60 x 10⁴ kJ

Explanation:

The energy released per gram of methane is first calculated:

(2498kJ)/(45.0g) = 55.5 kJ/g

The heat released by the combustion of 1.55 kg of methane is then calculated:

(55.5kJ/g)(1.55kg)(1000g/kg) = 86025kJ

To three significant digits, the answer is 8.60 x 10⁴ kJ.

45g ---> 2498kJ
1.55g ----> ?kJ
Answer: (1.55x2498)/45 approx 86.04 (kJ)

Answer:

The answer is " $\bold{0.525\ \ atm^{-1}}$ "

Explanation:

Given equation:

$2SO_2(g) + O_2(g) \leftrightharpoons 2SO_3(g)$

Given value:

$\Delta rH =-198.2 \ \ \frac{KJ}{mol}$

$Kp=1100 \ K$

$\Delta x = 2-(2+1)\\\\$

$= 2-(2+1)\\\\= 2-(3)\\\\= -1$

$\left\begin{array}{cccc}I\ (atm)&1&0.5&0\\C\ (atm)&2x&-x&2x\\E\ (atm) &1-2x&0.5-x&2x\end{array}\right$

calculating the total pressure on equilibrium= $(1-2x)+(0.5-x)+2x \ atm\\\\$

$= 1-2x+0.5-x+2x\\\\= 1+0.5-x\\\\=1.5-x\\$

$\therefore \\\\\to 1.50-x= 1.35 \\\\\to 1.50-1.35= x\\\\\to 0.15= x\\\\ \to x= 0.15\\\\$

calculating the pressure in $So_2$ :

$= (1-2 \times 0.15)$

$= 1-0.30 \\\\ =0.70 \ atm$

calculating the pressure in $O_2$ :

$= (0.5- 0.15)\\\\= 0.35 \ atm \\$

calculating the pressure in $So_3$ :

$= (2 \times 0.15)\\\\= (.30) \ atm \\\\$

Calculating the Kp at 1100 K:

$= \frac{(Pressure(So_3))^2}{(Pressure(So_2))^2 \times Pressure(O_2)}\\\\= \frac{0.30^2}{0.70^2 \times 0.35}\\\\= \frac{0.30 \times 0.30 }{0.70\times 0.70 \times 0.35}\\\\= \frac{0.09 }{0.49\times 0.35} \\\\= \frac{0.09 }{0.1715} \\\\= 0.5247 \ \ or \ \ 0.525 \ \ atm^{-1} \\\\$
