Answer:

Explanation:

Bisulphate ion is a weak acid as it can form hydronium ion in water .

HSO₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ SO₄⁻² + H₃O⁺

The equilibrium constant of this reaction is very small , hence bisulphate ion is very weak acid.

What is the change in enthalpy when 4.00 mol of sulfur trioxide decomposes to sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas? 250 2(g) + O2(g) ®

lidiya [134]

Answer: A. -396 kJ

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states.

$2SO_2(g)+O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$ $\Delta H^0=198kJ$
