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

How many moles of ethylene (C2H4) can react with 12.9 liters of oxygen gas at 1.2 atmospheres and 297 Kelvin? C2H4(g) + 3O2(g) y
7nadin3 [17]
1) Convert 12.9 liters of Oxygen to mol at the given conditions:

PV = nRT ⇒ n = PV/RT

n = [1.2atm*12.9 l] / [0.082 atm l /K mol * 297K]

n = 0.636 mol of O2

2) use the stoichiometry derived from the balanced chemical equation

 1mol C2H4 / 3  mol O2 =  x mol C2H4 / 0.636 mol O2

x = 0.636 / 3 mol O2 = 0.212 mol O2.

Answer: 0.212 mol O2

Calculate the volume of chlorine molecules produced at room temperature and pressure, when 234g of sodium chloride are electroly
rewona [7]

The volume of chlorine molecules produced at STP would be 96 dm³.

<h3>Stoichiometric problem</h3>

Sodium chloride ionizes during electrolysis to produce sodium and chlorine ions as follows:

NaCl --- > Na^+ + Cl^-

This means that 1 mole of sodium chloride will produce 1 mole of sodium ion and 1 mole of chlorine ion respectively.

Recall that: mole = mass/molar mass

Hence, 234 g of sodium chloride will give:

                         234/58.44 = 4.00 moles.

Thus, the equivalent number of moles of chlorine produced by 234 g of sodium chloride will be 4 moles.

Recall that:

1 mole of every gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure = 24 Liters.

Hence:

4 moles of chlorine = 4 x 24 = 96 Liters or 96 dm³.

Cecil writes the equation for the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen below.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

C) to show that atoms are conserved in chemical reactions

Explanation:

When writing a chemical reaction, we should always consider the Mass Conservation Law, which basically states that; in an isolated system; the total mass should remain constant, this is, the total mass of the reactives should be equal to the total mass of the products

For this case, we should add the apporpiate coefficients in order to be in compliance with this law:

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

So, we can check the above statement:

For reactives (left side):

4H

2O

For product (right side):

4H

2O
