Stoichiometry

Chemistry
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago

Stoichiometry is the ratio of reactants to products in a balanced chemical reaction equation. 
the stoichiometry in this case of H₂ to O₂ is 2:1.
This means that 2 moles of H₂ reacts with 1 mol of O₂.
we have been asked to calculate the volume of H₂ gas.
Since both O₂ and H₂ are gases, at standard conditions its stated that molar volume of gases is 22.4 L
This means that at standard temperature and pressure, 1 mol of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L
first we need to calculate the number of O₂ moles reacted;
22.4 L of gas - 1 mol of O₂
1 L of gas - 1/22.4 mol/L 
then 20 L of O₂ - 1/22.4 mol/L * 20 L = 0.89 mol
stoichiometry of H₂ to O₂ is 2:1
the number of H₂ moles = 0.89*2 = 1.79 mol
1 mol occupies 22.4 L
Therefore 1.79 mol = 22.4 L/mol * 1.79 mol = 40 L
Therefore it can be seen that stoichiometry applies to volumes as well.
volume of H₂ : O₂ = 40 L : 20 L = 2:1
volume and moles both can be determined by stoichiometry.
Volume of H₂ reacted = 40 L

Which analogy can best be likened to the activation energy of a chemical reaction?
olganol [36]
The activation energy of a reaction is the minimum energy that must be overcome in order for the reaction to take place. One way of reaching the activation energy is by manipulating the process conditions like pressure or temperature. But the most common method is by adding an enzyme. An enzyme speeds up the rate of the reaction but does not actively take part in it.

An analogy would be pushing heavy wooden block down a slope. No matter how many people push on it, the block won't move because of friction. But if you spill oil on the floor, the block would effortlessly move down the slope. The oil here is like an enzyme in a reaction.

Sulfur dioxide, SO 2 ( g ) , can react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide, SO 3 ( g ) , by the reaction 2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 (
Alex

Answer:

ΔHorxn = - 11.79 KJ

Explanation:

2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 2 SO 3 ( g )

The standard enthalpies of formation for SO 2 ( g ) and SO 3 ( g ) are Δ H ∘ f [ SO 2 ( g ) ] = − 296.8 kJ / mol Δ H ∘ f [ SO 3 ( g ) ] = − 395.7 kJ / mol

From the reaction above, 2 mol of SO2 reacts to produce 2 mol of SO3. Assuming ideal gas behaviour,

1 mol = 22.4l

x mol = 2.67l

Upon cross multiplication and solving for x;

x = 2.67 / 22.4 = 0.1192 mol

0.1192 mol of SO2 would react to produce 0.1192 mol of SO3.

Amount of heat is given as;

ΔHorxn = ∑mΔHof(products) − ∑nΔHof(reactants)

Because O2(g) is a pure element in its standard state, ΔHοf [O2(g)] = 0 kJ/mol.

ΔHorxn = 0.1192 mol * (− 395.7 kJ / mol) - 0.1192 mol * ( − 296.8 kJ / mol)

ΔHorxn = - 47.17kj + 35.38kj

ΔHorxn = - 11.79 KJ

If density usually increases with decreasing temperature, why does ice float on liquid water? Explain.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

If you continue to cool water past 4 degrees Celsius, its density starts to plummet (you can see this in the graph). At zero degrees, i.e., the temperature at which water turns into ice, the density of water is actually quite low. It turns out that ice has a lower density than water, and any object that has a lower density than the liquid form on which it’s kept (in this case, water) will be able to float!
