  • <u>The reaction that takes place is:</u>

Hg(NO₃)₂(ac) + Na₂S(ac) → HgS(s) + 2Na⁺ + 2NO₃⁻

Now we calculate the moles of each reagent -using the molecular weights-, in order to determine the limiting reactant:

  • Moles of mercury (II) nitrate = 85.14 g * \frac{1mol}{324.7g}=0.2622 moles.
  • Moles of sodium sulfide = 14.334 g *\frac{1mol}{78.04g}=0.1837 moles.

Because the stoichiometric ratio between the reactants is 1:1, we compare the number of moles of each one upfront.

moles Hg(NO₃)₂ > moles Na₂S

<u>Thus Na₂S is the limiting reagent.</u>

So in order to find the mass of solid precipitate, we must calculate it using the moles of Na₂S:

0.1837 molNa_{2} S*\frac{1molHgS }{1molNa_{2}S}*\frac{232.66g}{1molHgS} =42.740g

The mass of the solid precipitate is 42.760 g.

  • In order to calculate the grams of the reactant in excess that will remain after the reaction, we convert the moles that reacted into mass and substract them from the original mass:

Mass of Hg(NO₃)₂ remaining = 85.14g-(0.1837molHg(NO_{3})_{2} * 324.7 g/mol)=25.49g

The mass of the remaning reactant in excess is 25.49 g.

  • Because we assume complete precipitation, there are no more Hg⁺² or S⁻² ions in solution. The moles of NO₃⁻ and Na⁺ in solution remain the same during the reaction, so the number is calculated from the number added in the reactant:

Hg⁺²: 0 mol

NO₃⁻: 0.2622molHg(NO_{3})_{2} *\frac{2molNO_{3}^{-}}{1molHg(NO_{3})_{2} *} =0.5244molNO_{3}^{-}

Na⁺: 0.1837molNa_{2} S*\frac{1molNa^{+}}{1molNa_{2}}=0.1837molNa^{+}

S²⁻: 0 mol

Find the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene, C2H4(g), given the following data: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) --&gt; 2CO2(g) + 2 H2O
Brums [2.3K]

Answer : The standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The formation reaction of C_2H_4 will be,

2C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)    \Delta H_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)     \Delta H_1=-1411kJ

(2) C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=-393.5kJ

(3) H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=-285.8kJ

Now we will reverse the reaction 1, multiply reaction 2 and 3 by 2 then adding all the equation, we get :

(1) 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)     \Delta H_1=+1411kJ

(2) 2C(s)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=2\times (-393.5kJ)=-787kJ

(3) 2H_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=2\times (-285.8kJ)=-571.6kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of C_2H_4 will be,

\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3

\Delta H=(+1411kJ)+(-787kJ)+(-571.6kJ)

\Delta H=52.4kJ

Therefore, the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

A student has a piece of aluminum metal what is the most reasonable assumption a student can make about the metal
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

<h2>- It could be stretched into a thin wire.</h2>

Explanation:

As per the question, the most rational claim that the student can make about the aluminum metal is that 'it could be stretched into a thin wire' without breaking which shows its ductility. It is one of the most significant characteristics of a metal. Metals can conduct electricity in any state and not only when melted. Thus, option A is wrong. Options C and D are incorrect as metals neither have the same shape always nor do they break on hitting with a hammer. Therefore, <u>option E</u> is the correct answer.
