4). One mole of monoclinic sulfur at 25C was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter whose heat capacity (C) was 1620 J/K. T

he temperature of the calorimeter increased by 0.150 Co when the sulfur changed from the monoclinic to the orthorhombic form. Calculate the enthalpy change for the process S(monoclinic)  S(orthorhombic).

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the calorimeter and the solution.

The chemical equation used to calculate the heat released follows:

q=c\times \Delta T

where,

c = heat capacity of calorimeter = 1620 J/K

\Delta T = change in temperature = 0.150^oC=0.150K   (Change remains same)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=1620J/K\times 0.15K=243J

<u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

For the given chemical reaction:

S\text{ (monoclinic)}\rightarrow S\text{ (orthorhombic)}

We are given:

Moles of monoclinic sulfur = 1 mole

  • To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}

where,  

q = amount of heat released = -243 J

n = number of moles = 1 mole

\Delta H_{rxn} = enthalpy change of the reaction

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-243J}{1mol}=-243J/mol

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is -243 J/mol

What is the significance sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid
hammer [34]

Answer:

They are a base and an acid,  so they neutralize each other.

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide is a strong base. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid.

They react with (neutralize) each other to form a salt (sodium chloride) and water.

NaOH + HCl ⟶ NaCl + H₂O

A sample of an ideal gas in a cylinder of volume 2.67 L at 298 K and 2.81 atm expands to 8.34 L by two different pathways. Path
Igoryamba

Explanation:

  • For path A, the calculation will be as follows.

As, for reversible isothermal expansion the formula is as follows.

            W = -2.303 nRT log(\frac{V_2}{V_1})

Since, we are not given the number of moles here. Therefore, we assume the number of moles, n = 1 mol.

As the given data is as follows.

              R = 8.314 J/(K mol),          T = 298 K ,

          V_{2} = 8.34 L,    V_{1} = 2.67 L

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

            W = -2.303 nRT log(\frac{V_2}{V_1})

   = -2.303 \times 1 \times 8.314 J/K mol \times 298 log(\frac{8.34}{2.67})

     = -2.303 \times 1 \times 8.314 J/K mol \times 298 \times 0.494

    = -2818.68 J

Hence, work for path A is -2818.68 J.

  • For path B, the calculation will be as follows.

Step 1: When there is no change in volume then W = 0

Hence, for step 1, W = 0

Step 2: As, the gas is allowed to expand against constant external pressure P_{external} = 1.00 atm.

So,              W = -P_{external} \times \Delta V

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

               W = -P_{external} \times \Delta V

                   = -1 atm \times (8.34 L - 2.67 L)  

                    = -5.67 atm L

As we known that, 1 atm L = 101.33 J

Hence, work will be calculated as follows.

       W = -\frac{101.33 J}{1 atm L} \times 5.67 atm L

            = -574.54 J

Therefore, total work done by path B = 0 + (-574.54 J)

                        W = -574.54 J

Hence, work for path B is -574.54 J.
