<u>Answer:</u> The internal energy change for the reaction is -2850 J

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>Sign convention of heat:</u>

When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.

  • <u>Sign convention of work:</u>

Work done for expansion process is taken as negative and work done for compression is taken as positive.

According to the First law of thermodynamics,

\Delta U=q+w

where,

\Delta U = internal energy

q = heat absorbed or released  = -2290 J

w = work done = -560 J

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta U=(-2290)+(-560)\\\\\Delta U=-2850J

Hence, the internal energy change for the reaction is -2850 J

How many hydrogen atoms are in 5.20 mol of ammonium sulfide?
Fofino [41]
1) Molecular formula of ammonium sulfide

(NH4)2 S

2) That means that there are 2*4 = 8 atoms of hydrogen in each molecule of ammoium sulfide, so in 5.20 mol of molecules will be 8 * 5.20 mol = 41.6 moles of atoms of hydrogen

3) To pass to number of atoms multiply by Avogadro's number: 6.022 * 10^23

41.6 moles * 6.022 * 10^23 atoms / mol = 250.5 * 10^23 = 2.50 * 10^25 atoms

Answer: 2.50 * 10^25
