What happens when piece of sodium is exposed to moist air?

1 answer:

I am Lyosha [343]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Sodium reacts with the oxygen in air to form sodium oxide, and traces of yellowish sodium peroxide. ... Probably, the reaction with atmospheric oxygen will be faster, because I have never seen sodium metal turning whitish on exposure, though it does lose its lustre and and reactivity (just the surface).

Answer : The value of $\Delta H$ for the reaction is, -565.6 kJ

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the molar mass of CO.

Molar mass CO = Atomic mass of C + Atomic mass of O = 12 + 16 = 28 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of CO.

$\text{Moles of }CO=\frac{\text{Mass of }CO}{\text{Molar mass of }CO}=\frac{1g}{28g/mole}=\frac{1}{28}mole$

Now we have to calculate the value of $\Delta H$ for the reaction.

The balanced equation will be,

$2CO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)$

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, $\frac{1}{28}mole$ of CO release heat = 10.1 kJ

So, 2 mole of CO release heat = $2\times 28\times 10.1=565.6kJ$

Therefore, the value of $\Delta H$ for the reaction is, -565.6 kJ (The negative sign indicates the amount of energy is released)
