Use Hess's Law to determine the enthalpy change (∆H) for the reaction: ClF + F2 → ClF3 Given: 2ClF + O2 → Cl2O + F2O. ∆H=167.4kJ

2ClF3 + 2O2 →Cl2O + 3F2O. ∆H=341.4kJ 2F2 + O2 →2F2O. ∆H=-43.4kJ

Answer:

The enthalpy change (∆H) for the reaction is -108.7 kJ

Explanation:

Hess's law can be stated as: when the reactants are converted to products, the enthalpy change is the same, regardless of whether the reaction is carried out in one step or in a series of steps. Then, Hess's Law states that the enthalpy of one reaction can be achieved by algebraically adding the enthalpies of other reactions.

So,  to calculate the ∆H (heat of reaction) of the combustion reaction, that is, the heat that accompanies the entire reaction, you must make the total sum of all the heats of the products and of the reagents affected by their stoichiometric coefficient ( number of molecules of each compound participating in the reaction) and finally subtract them.

Enthalpy of combustion = ΔH = ∑Hproducts - ∑Hreactants

2 ClF + O₂ → Cl₂O + F₂O ∆H=167.4kJ

Cl₂O + 3 F₂O → 2 ClF₃ + 2 O₂ ∆H= -341.4kJ  

The previous equation must be inverted, and the enthalpy value is also inverted, that is, the sign is changed.

2 F₂ + O₂ →2 F₂O ∆H=-43.4kJ

Reactants and products are added or canceled, taking into account that certain substances sometimes appear as a reagent and others as a product, so they are totally eliminated (there is nothing left of them anywhere in the reaction, if the same amount in reagents and products) or partially (this substance remains, in less quantity, only on one side), obtaining:

2 ClF + 2 F₂ → 2 ClF₃

Then, as all the reactants and products have a stoichiometric coefficient of 2, dividend by that number is obtained:

ClF + F₂ → ClF₃

Adding the enthalpies algebraically, and dividing by 2, because to get the "data" reaction you had to multiply by two, you get:

ΔH= [167.4 kJ - 341.4 kJ - 43.3 kJ]÷2

ΔH= -108.7 kJ

<u><em>The enthalpy change (∆H) for the reaction is -108.7 kJ</em></u>

What will happen if you take a frog out of the food chain?
Setler [38]
<span>there are a number of animals that eat  frogs that will die off, then the animals that eat them will go hungry, and their populations will die off as well. This would just keep going up the food chain. Essentially, the loss of the frogs could have deep, reverberating effects that we may not grasp until it’s too late.</span>
