Which is the next logical step in balancing the given equation? CS2(1)+Cl2(g) CCl4(1) S2Cl2(1)

1 answer:

7 0

Reaction of current interest is:

<span>CS2(l) + Cl2(g) </span>→ <span>CCl4(l) + S2Cl2(l)

While balancing the chemical reaction, care must be taken that number of atoms of reactant side is equal to number of reactant on product side.

In present case, There is 1 'C' atom of both reactant and product side
There are 2 'S' atoms on both reactant and product side.
However, there are 2 Cl atoms of reactant side, but 6 Cl atoms on product side.
Hence multiplying Cl2 by 3, would equal the number of Cl atoms on both the sides.

Thus, the balanced reaction is
</span>CS2(l) + 3 Cl2(g) → CCl4(l) + S2Cl2(l)

which has a higher entropy for the reaction: 2nh3(g)→n2(g) 3h2(g) which has a higher entropy for the reaction: reactants product

krok68 [10]

The one that has a higher entropy for the reaction is products.

<h3>What is entropy?</h3>

Entropy is a measureable physical characteristic and a scientific notion that is frequently connected to a condition of disorder, unpredictability, or uncertainty. It is the measurement of the amount of thermal energy per unit of temperature in a system that cannot be used for productive work. It is a measure of a system's molecular disorder or unpredictability since work is produced by organized molecular motion.

It should bm be noted that the entropy of gas is more than entropy of aqueous which is more than the entropy of liquid and the entropy of solid.

On the product side there are more gas than the reactant side. Therefore, product has more entropy.

What is the empirical formula for a compound that is 83.7% carbon and 16.3% hydrogen?

zubka84 [21]

Hello!

We use the amount in grams (mass ratio) based on the composition of the elements, see: (in 100 g solution)

C: 83.7% = 83,7 g
H: 16.3% = 16.3 g

Let us use the above mentioned data (in g) and values will be converted to amount of substance (number of moles) by dividing by molecular mass (g / mol) each of the values, lets see:

$C: \dfrac{83.7\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g}{12\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/mol} \approx 6.975\:mol$

$H: \dfrac{16.3\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g}{1\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/mol} = 16.3\:mol$

We note that the values found above are not integers, so let's divide these values by the smallest of them, so that the proportion is not changed, let's see:

$C: \dfrac{6.975}{6.975} = 1$

$H: \dfrac{16.3}{6.975} \approx 2.3$

Note: So the ratio in the smallest whole numbers of carbon to hydrogen is 3:7, t<span>hus, the minimum or empirical formula found for the compound will be:
</span>
$\boxed{\boxed{C_3H_7}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

I hope this helps. =)

If 0.092J of heat causes a 0.267 degree C temperature change, what mass of water is present?

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

0.082g

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Heat (Q) = 0.092J

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 0.267°C

Specific heat capacity (C) of water = 4.184J/g°C

Mass (M) =..?

Thus, the mass of present can be obtained as follow:

Q = MCΔT

0.092 = M x 4.184 x 0.267

Divide both side by 4.184 x 0.267

M = 0.092 / (4.184 x 0.267)

M = 0.082g

Therefore, mass of water was present is 0.082.

The emission spectrum of hydrogen shows discrete, bright, colored lines. Which characteristic of the Bohr model is best supporte

natali 33 [55]

The characteristic of the Bohr model that would best support his observation is this assumption: "The energy of the electron in an orbit is proportional to its distance from the nucleus. The further the electron is from the nucleus, the more energy it has." The discrete, bright, colored lines might represent the electrons and its distance from the nucleus. The lights are caused by the energy it has.

Chemist A burns 10.000 grams of C₂H₆ in a constant-volume container at 25ºC. Chemist B burns an unknown mass of C₂H₆ in a consta

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

10.000 grams

Explanation:

For the first law of thermodynamics, the energy must be conserved, that means that the energy in form of heat (Q) must be equal to the sum of work (W) and internal energy(ΔU) :

Q = W + ΔU

ΔU depends on the temperature and W in the variation of pressure and volume. Q depends on the temperature, but also the mass. So, there is the same temperature, ΔU is equal for both reaction, if there is no work done, the heat must be equal for both of them. So the mass such be the same.
