Answer:

6ΔG°(f) H₂O = -229 Kj/mol

Explanation:

4NH₃(g) + 5O₂(g) => 4NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

ΔG°(f) 4mol(-16.66Kj/mol) | 5mol(0Kj/mol) || 4mol(+86.71Kj/mol) | 6ΔG°(f) H₂O

Hess's Law

ΔG°(Rxn) = ∑ΔG°(f) Products - ∑ΔG°(f) Reactants

-957.9 Kj = [(4mol(+86.71Kj/mol)) + 6ΔG°(f) H₂O(g)] - [4mol(-16.66Kj/mol) + 5mol(0Kj/mol)]

-957.9 Kj = [4(86.7)Kj + 6ΔG°(f) H₂O] - [4(-16.66)Kj] = 346.84Kj + 6ΔG°(f) H₂O + 66.64Kj

ΔG°(f) H₂O = ((-957.9 - 346.84 -66.64)/6)Kj = -228.56 Kj ≅ -228.6 Kj*

Hydrogen gas (a potential future fuel) can be formed by the reaction of methane with water according to the following equation:

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Explanation:

Moles of methane gas at 734 Torr and a temperature of 25 °C.

Volume of methane gas = V = 26.0 L

Pressure of the methane gas = P = 734 Torr = 0.9542 atm

Temperature of the methane gas = T = 25 °C = 298.15 K

Moles of methane gas = n

$PV=nRT$

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9542 atm\times 26.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}=1.0135 mol$

Moles of water vapors at 700 Torr and a temperature of 125 °C.

Volume of water vapor = V' = 23.0 L

Pressure of water vapor = P' = 700 Torr = 0.9100 atm

Temperature of water vapor = T' = 125 °C = 398.15 K

Moles of water vapor gas = n'

$P'V'=n'RT'$

$n'=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9100 atm\times 23.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 398.15 K}=0.6402 mol$

$CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+3H_2(g)$

According to reaction , 1 mol of methane reacts with 1 mol of water vapor. As we can see that moles of water vapors are in lessor amount which means it is a limiting reagent and formation of hydrogen gas will depend upon moles of water vapors.

According to reaction 1 mol of water vapor gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.6402 moles of water vapor will give:

$\frac{3}{1}\times 0.6402 mol=1.9208 mol$ of hydrogen gas

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained theoretically = 1.9208 mol

The reaction produces 26.0 L of hydrogen gas measured at STP.

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Then 26 L of volume of gas will be occupied by:

$\frac{1}{22.4 L}\times 26 L= 1.1607 mol$

Moles of hydrogen gas obtained experimentally = 1.1607 mol

Percentage yield of hydrogen gas of the reaction:

$\frac{Experimental}{Theoretical}\times 100$

$\%=\frac{ 1.1607 mol}{1.9208 mol}\times 100=60.42\%$

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Determine how many atoms of pure silver will be created when 19.83 x 1023 atoms of copper are used in the following reaction:

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\boxed{3.966 \times 10^{24}\text{ atoms of Ag}}$

Explanation:

(a) Balanced equation

Cu + 2AgNO₃ ⟶ Cu(NO₃)₂+ 2Ag

(b) Calculation

You want to convert atoms of Cu to atoms of Ag.

The atomic ratio is ratio is 2 atoms Ag:1 atom Cu

$\text{Atoms of Ag} = 19.83 \times 10^{23}\text{atoms Cu} \times \dfrac{\text{2 atoms Ag}}{\text{1 atom Cu}}\\\\= 3.966 \times 10^{24}\text{ atoms of Ag}\\\\\text{The reaction will produce }\boxed{\mathbf{3.966 \times 10^{24}}\textbf{ atoms of Ag}}$
