Answer:

The reaction is spontaneous.

Explanation:

Margarita [4]3 years ago

A positive overall cell potential indicates that reaction will be spontaneous. There is a connection between the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) and the overall potential:

ΔG = -nFE

where: n - the number of changed electrons, F - Faraday constant, E - the overall potential.
In order for a process to be spontaneous, the Gibbs free energy change has to be negative, and the above relation indicated that the overall potential has to be positive (since the number of electrons and Faraday constant have positive value).

Describe a Mesosaurus. ​
ElenaW [278]

Mesosaurus lived in freshwater lakes and ponds. Elongated and slim, it measured about 3.3 feet long. The skull and tail were both long and narrow, and the animal probably undulated through the water as it fed on small crustaceans and other prey with its jaws, which were full of long, thin, pointed teeth.

If 7.25g of chlorine is reacted with excess hydrogen and produces 7.25 g HCl. What is the percent yield?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

94.61 %

Explanation:

percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) X 100%

The balanced equation for the reaction is:

H2 (g ) + Cl2(g) => 2 HCl (l)

So, the theoretical yield =  

 7.25g of chlorine X (2mol of Cl / 35.453 g of Cl) X (2mol Cl / 2mol of HCl) X  37.469g of Hcl / 2mol of Hcl = 0.409 x 18.735 = 7.663g of Hcl

Using this theoretical yield and the provided value for actual yield, the percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) X 100%

= (7.25 g / 7.663g) X 100

= 94.61 %
