Answer:

335 Joules kJ of heat will be released

Explanation:

Given the balanced equation:

8 Al (s) + 3 Fe3O4 (s) ----------> 4 Al2O3 (s) + 9 Fe(s),

ΔH = -3350*KJ/mol rxn

This is the heat  released when 8 moles of Al react with 3 mol Fe3O4.

We then need to calculate the moles of reactants, verify if there is a limiting reagent and proceed to answer the question based on the soichiometry of the reaction.

Atomic weight Al = 26.98 g/mol  Molecular Weight Fe3O4 = 231.53 g/mol

mol Al = 47.6 g/26.98 g/mol = 1.76 mol

mol Fe3O4 = 69.12 g/ 231.53 g/mol = 0.30 mol

Limiting reagent calculation:

8 mol Al / 3 mol Fe3O4  x 0.30 mol Fe3O4 =  0.80  mol Al are required and we have 1.76 mol, therefore  Fe3O4 is the limiting reagent

Amount of Heat

-3350 kJ/ 3 mol Fe3O4  x 0.30 mol Fe3O4 = -335.00 kJ

Coal can be used to generate hydrogen gas (a potential fuel) by thefollowing endothermic reaction.C(s) + H2O (g) <==> CO(g
SpyIntel [72]

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

For the given equation:

C(s) + H_2O (g)\leftrightharpoons CO(g) + H_2(g)

Given that reaction is an endothermic reaction.

For the given options:

a)Adding more C

If the concentration of C that is the reactant is increased, so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease of concentration of C takes place. Therefore, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction to wards the formation of hydrogen gas.

b) Adding more H_2O

If the concentration of water that is the reactant is increased, so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease of concentration of water  takes place. Therefore, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction towards the formation of hydrogen gas.

c) Raising the temperature  of the reaction mixture

If the temperature is increased,heat of the equilibrium mixture will also increase so according to the Le-Chatlier's principle , the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in heat that is decrease in temperature occurs.

As, this is an endothermic reaction, forward reaction will decrease the temperature. Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction that is towards the formation of hydrogen gas.  

d) Increasing the volume  of reaction mixture

If the volume of the container is increased, the pressure will decrease according to Boyle's Law. Now, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where increase in pressure is taking place. As the number of moles of gas molecules is greater at the product side. So, the equilibrium will shift in the right direction that is towards the formation of hydrogen gas.  

e) Adding a catalyst  to reaction mixture

Role of catalyst is to attain the equilibrium quickly without disturbing the state of equilibrium. Hence, addition of catalyst will not change the equilibrium of the reaction.  

f) Adding an inert gas to reaction mixture

Adding inert gas to the mixture at constant volume will not effect the equilibrium. Hence, addition of an inert gas will not change the equilibrium of the reaction.

What is the complete set of quantum numbers for the fifth electron added to a hydrogen ion?
N76 [4]
1s2 2s2 2p1

fifth electron is in 2p orbital 

so answer is  2 2 -1 -1/2 , or 2 2 -1 1/2

*1/2 and -1/2 are spins, so they are interchangeable when writing the first electron in the ml
