A sample of the sugar d-ribose (C5H10O5) of mass 0.727 g was placed in a calorimeter and then ignited in the presence of excess

oxygen. The temperature rose by 0.910 K. In a separate experiment in the same calorimeter, the combustion of 0.825 g of benzoic acid, for which the internal energy of combustion is −3251 kJ mol−1, gave a temperature rise of 1.940 K. Calculate the enthalpy of formation of d-ribose.

Answer:

The internal energy of combustion of d-ribose = -2127 kJ/mol

The enthalpy of formation of d-ribose = -1269.65 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of d-ribose = 0.727 grams

The temperature rose by 0.910 K

In a separate experiment in the same calorimeter, the combustion of 0.825 g of benzoic acid, for which the internal energy of combustion is −3251 kJ mol−1, gave a temperature rise of 1.940 K.

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate ΔU  for benzoic acid

The calorimeter is a constant-volume instrument so:

ΔU = q

ΔU = (0.825 g/ 122.12 g/mol) * (−3251 kJ /mol)

ΔU = -21.96 kJ

Step 3: Calculate ΔU  for d-ribose

c = |q| / ΔT

⇒ with ΔT = 1.940 K

c = 21.96 kJ / 1.940 K

c = 11.32 kJ /K

For d-ribose: ΔU = -cΔT

ΔU  = -11.32 kJ/K * 0.910 K

ΔU = - 10.3 kJ

Step 4: Calculate moles of d-ribose

moles ribose = 0.727 grams / 150.13 g/mol

moles ribose = 0.00484 moles

Step 5: Calculate the internal energy of combustion for d-ribose

ΔrU = ΔU / n

ΔrU  = -10.3 kJ / 0.004842 moles

ΔrU = -2127 kJ/mol

Step 6: Calculate The enthalpy of formation of d-ribose

The combustion of ribose is:

C5H10O5(s) + 5O2(g) → 5CO2(g) + 5H20(l)

Since there is no change in the number of moles of gas,  ΔrH = ΔU  

For the combustion of ribose, we consider the following reactions:

5CO2(g) + 5H2O(l) → C5H10O5(s) +5O2(g)      ΔH = -2127 kJ/mol

C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g)      ΔH = -393.5 kJ/mol

H2(g) + 1/2 O2(g) → H2O(l)    ΔH = -285.83 kJ/mol

ΔH = 2127 kJ/mol + 5(-393.5 kJ/mol) + 5(-285.83 kJ/mol)

ΔH = 2127 kJ/mol - -1967.5 kJ/mol - 1429.15 kJ/mol

ΔH =  -1269.65 kJ/mol

The internal energy of combustion of d-ribose = -2127 kJ/mol

The enthalpy of formation of d-ribose = -1269.65 kJ/mol

Based on the kinetic theory, which statement is true?
Effectus [21]

answer is A

The kinetic theory is used to explain the behaviour of gases.

One of the assumptions states that "a gas is composed of a large number of identical molecules moving at different speeds".

As you move from bottom on the periodic table to the top shielding
masha68 [24]

Answer:

AS we move from bottom to top on periodic table shielding decreased.

Explanation:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As we move from bottom to top the energy level decreased because of decreased in electron thus shielding decreased and atomic size also decreased.
