<u>Given:</u>

Mass of methanol = 1.02 g

<u>To determine:</u>

Enthalpy for the reaction of 1.02 g of methanol with excess O2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Balanced equation-

2CH3OH(g) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)

The reaction enthalpy is given as:

ΔHrxn = ∑nH°f(products) - ∑nH°f(reactants)

where n = number of moles

H°f = standard enthalpy of formation.

ΔHrxn = [2H°f(CO2(g)) + 4H°f(H2O(g))] - [2H°f(CH3OH(g)) + 3H°f(O2(g))]

           = [2(-393.5) + 4(-241.8)]-[2(-201.5) + 3(0)] = -1351.2 kJ

Now, 1 mole of CH3OH = 32 g

The calculated ΔHrxn corresponds to 2 moles of CH3OH. i.e.

The enthalpy change for 64 g of Ch3OH = -1351.2 kJ

Therefore, for 1.02g gaseous methanol we have:

ΔH = 1.02 * -1351.2/64 = -21.5 kJ

Ans: The enthalpy for the given reaction is -21.5 kJ

Why does it generally take more enthalpy to ignite a solid than a gas or liquid?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

It is due to the nature of the reactants

Explanation:

To ignite a solid, we require more heat component compared to liquids and gases. For ignition to occur, oxygen gas combines with a reactant in most cases.

Some factors affect the rate rate at which a chemical proceeds. One of the factors is the nature of reactants.

The solid phase is very slow while the gaseous phase is rapid and fast.

            solid phase < liquid phase <  gas phase

Gases are free and the molecules move in all direction. They easily combine and react very fast.

Identify the solute and solvent in each of the solutions. A. salt ( NaCl ) (NaCl) in water salt: water: B. air (a solution of 78
stira [4]

Answer:

A) solute - NaCl, solvent - water

B) solute - O2 and other gases, solvent - N2

C) solute - ethanol, solvent - water

D) solute - tin, solvent - copper

Explanation:

Solute(s) is/are the minor component(s) in a solution, dissolved in the solvent.

Solvent is the component of a solution that is present in the greatest amount. It is the substance in which the solute is dissolved.

If both solute and solvent exist in equal quantities (such as in a 50% ethanol, 50% water solution), the concepts of "solute" and "solvent" become less relevant, but the substance that is more often used as a solvent is normally designated as the solvent (in this example, water).
