Answer:
31.24 kJ
Explanation:
- SiO₂(g) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g) ΔH° = 624.7 kJ/mol
First we <u>convert 3.00 grams of SiO₂ to moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:
- 3.00 g SiO₂ ÷ 60.08 g/mol = 0.05 mol
Now we <u>calculate the heat absorbed</u>, using the <em>given ΔH°</em>:
If the complete reaction of 1 mol of SiO₂ absorbs 624.7 kJ, then with 0.05 mol:
- 0.05 mol * 624.7 kJ/mol = 31.24 kJ of heat would be absorbed.
Answer:
Mg
Explanation:
The standard reduction potentials are
<u>E°/V
</u>
Au³⁺(aq ) + 3e⁻ ⟶ Au(s); 1.42
Hg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Hg(l); 0.85
Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ ⟶ Ag(s); 0.80
Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu(s); 0.34
Mg2+(aq) + 2e- ⟶ Mg(s); -2.38
The more negative the standard reduction potential, the stronger the metal is as a reducing agent.
Mg is the only metal with a standard reduction potential lower than that of Cu, so
Only Mg will react spontaneously with Cu²⁺.
false, the rusting of iron can be prevented by painting, oiling, greasing or varnishing its surface.
