Calculate the entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction below at 350K: N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH3(g) Entropy data: NH3

krek1111 [17]

Answer : The entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction is, -198.3 J/K

Explanation :

We have to calculate the entropy change of reaction $(\Delta S^o)$ .

$\Delta S^o=S_{product}-S_{reactant}$

$\Delta S^o=[n_{NH_3}\times \Delta S^0_{(NH_3)}]-[n_{N_2}\times \Delta S^0_{(N_2)}+n_{H_2}\times \Delta S^0_{(H_2)}]$

where,

$\Delta S^o$ = entropy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

$\Delta S^0{(NH_3)}$ = standard entropy of $NH_3$

$\Delta S^0{(H_2)}$ = standard entropy of $H_2$

$\Delta S^0{(N_2)}$ = standard entropy of $N_2$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (192.5J/K.mole)]-[1mole\times (191.5J/K.mole)+3mole\times (130.6J/K.mole)]$

$\Delta S^o=-198.3J/K$

Therefore, the entropy change for the surroundings of the reaction is, -198.3 J/K

What is the concentration (in M) of a 225ml potassium sulfate solution that contains 4.15g of potassium?

mars1129 [50]

The concentration of solution in M or mol/L can be calculated using the following formula:

$C=\frac{n}{V}$ .... (1)

Here, n is number of moles and V is volume of solution in L.

The molecular formula of potassium sulfate is $K_{2}SO_{4}$ thus, there are 2 moles of potassium in 1 mol of potassium sulfate.

1 mol of potassium will be there in 0.5 mol of potassium sulfate.

Mass of potassium is 4.15 g, molar mass is 39.1 g/mol.

Number of moles can be calculated as follows:

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass

Putting the values,

$n=\frac{(4.15 g}{(39.1 g/mol}=0.1061 mol$

Thus, number of moles of $K_{2}SO_{4}$ will be $0.1061\times 0.5=0.053 mol$ .

The volume of solution is 225 mL, converting this into L,

$1 mL=10^{-3}L$

Thus,

$225 mL=0.225 L$

Putting the values in equation (1),

$C=\frac{(0.053 mol}{0.225 L}=0.236 M$

Therefore, concentration of potassium sulfate solution is 0.236 M.

What is the balanced symbol equation for magnesium chloride + sodium carbonate --> magnesium carbonate + sodium chloride

Semenov [28]

Answer:

MgCl₂+ Na₂CO₃ ==> MgCO₃ + NaCl

From a quick observation

You see that the right hand side of the eqn is deficient of Sodium and Chlorine

Simply Add a Coefficient of 2 to NaCl to balance it with the left.

Your answer now becomes

MgCl₂ + Na₂CO₃ ==> MgCO₃ + 2NaCl.✅

Determine the electron geometry (eg) and molecular geometry (mg) of CO2.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

eg=linear, mg=linear

Explanation:

First of all, it must be stated that most triatomic molecules are either linear or bent. This depends on the electron geometry of the molecule and the number of bonding groups, multiple bonds and lone pairs present.

CO2 contains four regions of electron density and two bonding groups. For a specie containing two bonding groups, a linear molecular geometry is expected with an angle of 180°.

For a specie having two bonding groups and no lone pairs with multiple bonds, the expected electron geometry is also linear.
