Explanation:

A clastic sedimentary rock is a rock that is formed from pre-existing rock materials and minerals. This materials have been transported to their new positions by the agents of denudation.

Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of rock fragments predominantly.
The matrix is usually remnants of other rocks.
A cementing material can form between clasts and holds them in place. Cements are usually iron oxides, calcite e.t.c.
These rock types are usually formed from mechanincal weathering of rocks
Mechanical weathering breaks down rocks into chunks.
Examples are breccia, conglomerates, e.t.c.

Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction at 25 ∘ 25 ∘ C. Standard enthalpy of formation values can be found in th

WINSTONCH [101]

<u>Answer:</u> The standard enthalpy change of the reaction is coming out to be -16.3 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as $\Delta H$

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Mg(OH)_2(s)+2HCl(g)\rightarrow MgCl_2(s)+2H_2O(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(MgCl_2(s))})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(H_2O(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta H_f_{(Mg(OH)_2(s))})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCl(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H_f_{(Mg(OH)_2(s))}=-924.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(HCl(g))}=-92.30kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(MgCl_2(s))}=-641.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.8kJ/mol$
