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

Select the correct answer.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

A binary covalent compound is composed of two different elements (usually nonmetals). For example, a molecule of chlorine trifluoride, ClF3 contains 1 atom of chlorine and 3 atoms of fluorine.

Rule 1. The element with the lower group number is written first in the name; the element with the higher group number is written second in the name. Exception: when the compound contains oxygen and a halogen, the name of the halogen is the first word in the name.

Rule 2. If both elements are in the same group, the element with the higher period number is written first in the name.

Rule 3. The second element in the name is named as if it were an anion, i.e., by adding the suffix -ide to the root of the element name (e.g., fluorine = F, "fluoride" = F-; sulfur = S, "sulfide" = S2-).

Rule 4. Greek prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the chemical formula for the compound. Exception: if the compound contains one atom of the element that is written first in the name, the prefix "mono-" is not used.
