A 4.00g sample of helium has a volume of 24.4L at a temperature of 25.0oC and a pressure of 1.00 atm. The volume of the helium i

s reduced to 10.4L, but the temperature and pressure of the gas are kept con- stant. What is the new quantity of the gas, in moles? Show all work using units and sig figs.

Answer:

0.41 moles.

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of helium = 4.00 g

Initial Volume = 24.4 L

initial Temperature = 25.0 °C =( 25 + 273) = 298 K

initial Pressure = 1.00 atm

The volume was reduced to :

i.e

final volume of the helium - 10.4 L

Change in ΔV = 24.4 - 10.4 = 10.0 L

Temperature and pressure remains constant.

The new quantity of gas can be calculated by using the ideal gas equation.

PV = nRT

n = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

n = $\frac{1.00*10.0}{0.082057*298}$

n = 0.4089 moles

n = 0.41 moles.

Write the half-reactions as they occur at each electrode and the net cell reaction for this electrochemical cell containing indi

AlexFokin [52]

Explanation:

The given cell reaction is as follows.

$In(s)| In^{3+}(aq) || Cd^{2+}(aq) | Cd(s)$

Hence, reactions taking place at the cathode and anode are as follows.

At anode ; Oxidation-half reaction : $In(s) \rightarrow In^{3+}(aq) + 3e^{-}$ ...... (1)

At cathode; Reduction-half reaction : $Cd^{2+}(aq) + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Cd(s)$ ....... (2)

Hence, balance the half reactions by multiplying equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 3.

Therefore, net cell reaction is as follows.

$2In(s) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 6e^{-}$

$3Cd^{2+}(aq) + 6e^{-} \rightarrow 3Cd(s)$

Net reaction: $2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)$

Thus, we can conclude that the overall cell reaction is as follows.

$2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)$

What happens when gases change to plasma?

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:. In the case of neon, it is electrical energy that pulls the electrons off.

explanation-Plasma can be made from a gas if a lot of energy is pushed into the gas. In the case of neon, it is electrical energy that pulls the electrons off. When it is time to become a gas again, just flip the neon light switch off. Without the electricity to energize the atoms, the neon plasma returns to its gaseous state.

Use the given data at 500 K to calculate ΔG°for the reaction

Anton [14]

Answer : The value of $\Delta G^o$ for the reaction is -959.1 kJ

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)+2SO_2(g)$

First we have to calculate the enthalpy of reaction $(\Delta H^o)$ .

$\Delta H^o=H_f_{product}-H_f_{reactant}$

$\Delta H^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}]$

where,

$\Delta H^o$ = enthalpy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

$\Delta H_f^0$ = standard enthalpy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$\Delta H^o=[2mole\times (-242kJ/mol)+2mole\times (-296.8kJ/mol)}]-[2mole\times (-21kJ/mol)+3mole\times (0kJ/mol)]$

$\Delta H^o=-1035.6kJ=-1035600J$

conversion used : (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now we have to calculate the entropy of reaction $(\Delta S^o)$ .

$\Delta S^o=S_f_{product}-S_f_{reactant}$

$\Delta S^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(O_2)}]$

where,

$\Delta S^o$ = entropy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

$\Delta S_f^0$ = standard entropy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (189J/K.mol)+2mole\times (248J/K.mol)}]-[2mole\times (206J/K.mol)+3mole\times (205J/K.mol)]$

$\Delta S^o=-153J/K$

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy of reaction $(\Delta G^o)$ .

As we know that,

$\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o-T\Delta S^o$

At room temperature, the temperature is 500 K.

$\Delta G^o=(-1035600J)-(500K\times -153J/K)$

$\Delta G^o=-959100J=-959.1kJ$

Therefore, the value of $\Delta G^o$ for the reaction is -959.1 kJ
