Why is the mass in amu of a carbon-12 atom reported as 12.011 in the periodic table of the elements?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bas_tet [7]3 years ago
7 0

The mass of an element listed in the Periodic Table is the weighted average of all its naturally occurring isotopes.

Naturally occurring carbon is about

99 % carbon-12 (12.000 u) + 1 % carbon-13 (13.003 u).

That extra carbon-13 makes the <em>average atomic mass</em>  greater than 12.000 u.

Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction at 25 ∘ C. Standard enthalpy of formation values can be found in this li
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

-179.06 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced reaction.

HCl(g) + NaOH(s) ⟶ NaCl(s) + H₂O(l)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction (ΔH°r) using the following expression.

ΔH°r = 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaCl(s)) + 1 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O(l)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(HCl(g)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(NaOH(s))

ΔH°r = 1 mol × (-411.15 kJ/mol) + 1 mol × (-285.83 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-92.31 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-425.61 kJ/mol)

ΔH°r = -179.06 kJ
