The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes:
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Then,
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The total ionic equation looks as follows:
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows:
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Answer is: 28 kJ.
Chemical reaction: A₂ + B₂ ⇄ 2AB.
Ea(forward) = 105 kJ/mol.
Ea(reverse) = 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = ?
<span>The enthalpy change of reaction is the change in the energy of the reactants to the products.
</span>ΔH(reaction) = Ea(forward) - Ea(reverse).
ΔH(reaction) = 105 kJ/mol - 77 kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = 28 kJ/mol; this is endothermic reaction (ΔH <span>> 0).</span>
Wavelength = 434nm = 434 x 10⁻⁹m
planck's constant = <span>h= 6.626 x 10 ⁻³⁴ J
E =?
by using the formula;
E = hc /</span>λ
value for c is 3 x 10⁸ m/s
E = (6.626 x 10 ⁻³⁴ J)(3 x 10⁸ m/s) / 434 x 10⁻⁹m
E = 1.9878 x 10⁻²⁵ / 434 x 10⁻⁹m
E = 4.58 x 10⁻¹⁹ joules
