Answer:

  • The second choice: <u><em>22 g He </em></u><em>will have the greatest volume at STP</em>

Explanation:

Following Avogadro's principle, under ideal condtions, the <em>volume</em> of the gases at the same conditions of temperature, and pressure, is proportional to the number of molecules.

Then, you can calculate the number of molecules for each of the gases to determine which is the sample with the greatest number of molecules and, hence, which will have the greatest volume at STP (standard temperature and pressure).

The formula to calcualte the number of molecules (in moles) is:

  • n = mass in grams / molar mass

Then, since the mass is the same (22 g) for the four options, the result will be dependent on the molar mass: the gass witht the smallest molar mass will give the largest number of moles for 22 g, and will have the  greatest volume.

<u><em>a) 22 g CO:</em></u>

  • Molar mass of CO ≈ 28 g/mol

<u><em>b) 22 g He:</em></u>

  • Molar mass of He ≈ 4.0 g/mol

<em><u>c) 22 g O₂ </u></em>

  • Molar mass of O₂ ≈ 32 g/mol

<em><u>d) 22 g Cl₂</u></em>

  • Molar mass of Cl₂ ≈ 71 g/mol

<u>Conclusion</u>: since He has the smallest molar mass, the sample of 22 g of He gas will have the greatest volume at STP.

Hydrogen reacts with chlorine to form hydrogen chloride (HCl (g), mc012-1.jpgHf = –92.3 kJ/mol) according to the reaction below.
Kobotan [32]

<u>Given:</u>

H2(g) + Cl2 (g) → 2HCl (g)

<u>To determine:</u>

The enthalpy of the reaction and whether it is endo or exothermic

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy of a reaction is given by the difference between the enthalpy of formation of reactants and products

ΔH = ∑nHf (products) - ∑nHf (reactants)

      = [2Hf(HCl)] - [Hf(H2) + Hf(Cl2)] = 2 (-92.3) kJ = - 184.6 kJ

Since the reaction enthalpy is negative, the reaction is exothermic

<u>Ans:</u> The enthalpy of reaction is -184. kJ and the reaction is exothermic
