Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants increases by 215. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, w

hich is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that -155. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction.
Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

Answer:

a) ΔU = 370 KJ

b) Endothermic

Explanation:

a)

The change in energy of the mixture can be given by first law of thermodynamics as:

ΔQ = ΔU + W

ΔU = ΔQ - W

where,

ΔQ = change in heat energy of system

ΔU = Change in internal energy of gases

W = Work done on gases = - 155 KJ

For an isobaric process (i.e constant pressure) we know that:

ΔQ = change in enthalpy = ΔH

ΔQ = 215 KJ

Therefore, using values in the equation, we get:

ΔU = 215 KJ - (-155 KJ)

<u>ΔU = 370 KJ</u>

b)

Since, the enthalpy of products is greater than the reactants. Therefore, this is an <u>endothermic reaction</u>.

Answer:

x²+6x+5=0

On comparing with the equation

ax² + bx + c = 0

a=1, b = 6 and c = 5

Now

b²– 4ac = 6² – 4 x 1 x 5 = 36 - 20 = 16

x =  \frac{ - b \:± \:  \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac }  }{2a}  \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 6\:± \:  \sqrt{16 }  }{2 \times 1}  \\ \\  x =  \frac{ - 6± {4}  }{2}  \\    \\ x =  \frac{ - 6 +  {4}  }{2} \:  \: or \:  \: x =  \frac{ - 6 -  {4}  }{2} \\   \\ \implies \: x =  \frac{  \cancel-2  }{ \cancel2}^{-1 }\:  \: or \:  \: x =  \frac{  \cancel-10  }{ \cancel2}^{-5}\\  \\    \implies \: { \blue{\fbox{ \: x =  - 1 \:  \:  \: or \:  \:  \:x  =  - 5}}}

How many grams of copper (II) fluoride, CuF2, are needed to make 5.1 liters of a 1.4M solution?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: 724.71 grams

Explanation:

Volume of solution (v) = 5.1 liters

Concentration of solution (c) = 1.4M

Amount of CuF2 needed (n) = ?

Since concentration (c) is obtained by dividing the amount of solute dissolved by the volume of solvent, hence

c = n / v

make n the subject formula

n = c x v

n = 1.4M x 5.1 Liters

n = 7.14 moles

Since, 7.14 moles of CuF2 (n) is needed, use the molar mass of CuF2 to get the mass in grams.

The atomic masses of Copper = 63.5g;

and Fluorine = 19g

So, I CuF2 = 63.5g + (19g x 2)

= 63.5g + 38g

= 101.5g/mol

Then, apply the formula

Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

7.14 moles = m / 101.5 g/mol

m = 7.14 moles x 101.5 g/mol

m = 724.71g

Thus, 724.71 grams of copper (II) fluoride, CuF2, are needed to make 5.1 liters of a 1.4M solution

Complete and balance the reaction in acidic solution. equation: ZnS + NO_{3}^{-} -&gt; Zn^{2+} + S + NO ZnS+NO−3⟶Zn2++S+NO Which
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Balanced reaction: 3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O

S is oxidized and N is reduced.

NO_{3}^{-} is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Reaction: ZnS+NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S+NO

\Rightarrow Oxidation: ZnS\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S

Balance charge: ZnS-2e^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S  ...............(1)

\Rightarrow Reduction: NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow NO

Balance H and O in acidic medium : NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O

Balance charge: NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}+3e^{-}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O ...............(2)

[3\timesEquation-(1)] + [ 2\timesEquation-(2)]:

3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O

Oxidation number of S increases from (-2) to (0) for the conversion of ZnS to S. Therefore S is oxidized.

Oxidation number of N decreases from (+5) to (+2) for the conversion of NO_{3}^{-} to NO. Therefore N is reduced.

NO_{3}^{-} consumes electron from ZnS. Therefore NO_{3}^{-} is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

Calculate ΔGrxn for this equation, rounding your answer to the nearest whole number. CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g) ΔGf,CaCO3 = −1,1
FrozenT [24]

Answer: \Delta G_{rxn} for the given reaction is 130.19kJ/mol

Explanation:

To Calculate the \Delta G_{rxn}, we use the formula:

\Delta G_{rxn}=\Delta G_{products}-\Delta G_{reactants}

For the given chemical reaction:

CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)

We are given:

\Delta G_{CaCO_3}=-1128.76kJ/mol\\\Delta G_{CaO}=-604.17kJ/mol\\\Delta G_{CO_2}=-394.4kJ/mol

Now, to calculate \Delta G_{rxn}, we put the values in the above equation:

\Delta G_{rxn}=(\Delta G_{CaO}+\Delta G_{CO_2})-\Delta G_{CaCO_3}

\Delta G_{reaction}=(-604.17-394.4)-(-1128.76)kJ/mol\\\Delta G_{reaction}=130.19kJ/mol

As, the value of \Delta G_{reaction} comes out to be positive, the reaction is said to be non-spontaneous reaction.
