ΔH° = -851.5 kJ/mol given that

\begin{array}{cc}\textbf{Species}&{\bf {\Delta H_f\textdegree{}}}\\ \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3\;(s) & -824.2\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}\\\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3\;(s) & -1675.7\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}\end{array}

(Source: Chemistry Libretexts.)

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to a thermodynamic data table for the standard enthalpy of formation for each species.

Don't be alerted if the data for Al (s) and Fe (s) are missing. Why?

  • The standard enthalpy of formation of a substance measures the ΔH required to form each mole of it from the most stable allotrope of its elements under STP.
  • Both Al (s) and Fe (s) are already the most stable form of their element under STP (note that the state symbol matters.) There's no need to form them again.

As a result, \Delta H_f\textdegree{} = 0 for both Al (s) and Fe (s).

\displaystyle \Delta H_{\text{rxn}}\textdegree{} = \text{Sum of }\Delta H\text{ for all }\textbf{Product} - \text{Sum of }\Delta H\text{ for all }\textbf{Reactant}}\\\phantom{\Delta H_{\text{rxn}}\textdegree{}} = (1\times \Delta H_f\textdegree{}(\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3\;(s)) + 1\times \Delta H_f\textdegree{}(\text{Al}\;(s)) \\ \phantom{\Delta H_{\text{rxn}}\textdegree{}=}-(1\times \Delta H_f\textdegree{}(\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3\;(s)) + 1\times\Delta H_f\textdegree{}(\text{Fe}\;(s))

\Delta H_{\text{rxn}}\textdegree{}} = (1 \times (-1675.7)) - (1\times(-824.2)) = -851.5\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

The number "1" here emphasizes that in case there are more than one mole of any species in one mole of the reaction, it will be necessary to multiply the \Delta H_f\textdegree{} of that species with its coefficient in the equation.

A cylinder with a moveable piston contains 0.552 mol of gas and has a volume of 259 mL . Part A What will its volume be if an ad
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The new volume will be 367mL

Explanation:

Using PV = nRT

V1 = 259mL = 0.000259L

n1 = 0.552moles

At constant temperature and pressure, the value is

P * 0.000259 = 0.552 * RT ------equation 1

= 0.552 / 0.000259

= 2131.274

V2 = ?

n2 = 0.552 + 0.232

n2 = 0.784mole

Using ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P * V2 = 0.784 * RT ---------- equation 2

Combining equations 1 and 2 we have;

V2 = 0.784 / 2131.274

V2 = 0.000367L

V2 = 367mL

How a cation is formed by an atom?​
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Cations are positively charged atoms and hence we need to make the atom positively charged in order to get a cation

We know that an atom is neutral as a whole, so we have equal number of electrons and protons

since we cannot mess with the number of protons in an atom, we have to do it by altering the number of electrons

If we reduce the amount of electrons in an atom, the net charge will be positive and hence a cation will be formed

Hund's rule states that electrons must spread out within a given subshell before they can pair
Temka [501]

Answer:

Groups 14, 15, and 16 have 2,3, and 4 electrons in the p sublevel (p sublevel has 3 "spaces" AKA orbitals), because Hunds says one in each orbital before doubling up if you had 2 electrons, group 14, they would both be in the first orbital, with 3 electrons, group 15, two in the first orbital one in the 2nd none in the 3rd. With 4 electrons, group 16, then you would have 2 in the first 2 orbitals and NONE in the 3rd.

Explanation:

If you are in group 13 you only have 1 electron so it can only be in one orbital. with group 17, you have 5 electrons, so 2 in the first 2 in the second and 1 in the 3rd, correct for Hunds rule anyway. Noble gasses, group 18, have 6 elecctrons, so every orbital is full any way you look at it.
