Explanation:
Equation of the reaction:
Br2(l) + Cl2(g) --> 2BrCl(g)
The enthalpy change for this reaction will be equal to twice the standard enthalpy change of formation for bromine monochloride, BrCl.
The standard enthalpy change of formation for a compound,
ΔH°f, is the change in enthalpy when one mole of that compound is formed from its constituent elements in their standard state at a pressure of 1 atm.
This means that the standard enthalpy change of formation will correspond to the change in enthalpy associated with this reaction
1/2Br2(g) + 1/2Cl2(g) → BrCl(g)
Here, ΔH°rxn = ΔH°f
This means that the enthalpy change for this reaction will be twice the value of ΔH°f = 2 moles BrCl
Using Hess' law,
ΔH°f = total energy of reactant - total energy of product
= (1/2 * (+112) + 1/2 * (+121)) - 14.7
= 101.8 kJ/mol
ΔH°rxn = 101.8 kJ/mol.
Answer:
The answer to your question is 24.325
Explanation:
Data
Magnesium-24 Abundance = 78.70%
Magnesium-25 Abundance = 10.13%
Magnesium-26 Abundance = 11.17%
Process
1.- Convert the abundance to decimals
Magnesium-24 Abundance = 78.70/100 = 0.787
Magnesium-25 Abundance = 10.13/100 = 0.1013
Magnesium-26 Abundance = 11.17/100 = 0.1117
2.- Write an equation
Average atomic mass = (Atomic mass-1 x Abundance 1) + (Atomic mass 2 x
Abundance-2) + (Atomic mass 3 x Abundance 3)
3.- Substitution
Average atomic mass = (24 x 0.787) + (25 x 0.1013) + (26 x 0.1117)
4.- Simplification
Average atomic mass = 18.888 + 2.533 + 2.904
5.- Result
Average atomic mass = 24.325
