Answer : The enthalpy change of reaction is 206.9 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given final reaction is,

Hg_2Br_2(s)\rightarrow 2Hg(l)+Br_2(l)    \Delta H=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) Hg(l)+Br_2(l)\rightarrow HgBr_2(s)    \Delta H^o_1=-170.7kJ

(2) Hg(l)+HgBr_2(s)\rightarrow Hg_2Br_2(s)    \Delta H^o_2=-36.2kJ

First we will reverse the reaction 1 and 2 then adding both the equation, we get :

(1) HgBr_2(s)\rightarrow Hg(l)+Br_2(l)    \Delta H^o_1=+170.7kJ

(2) Hg_2Br_2(s)\rightarrow Hg(l)+HgBr_2(s)    \Delta H^o_2=+36.2kJ

The expression for final enthalpy is,

\Delta H=\Delta H^o_1+\Delta H^o_2

\Delta H=(+170.7kJ)+(+36.2kJ)

\Delta H=206.9kJ

Therefore, the enthalpy change of reaction is 206.9 kJ

<u>Answer:</u> \Delta H^o_3 is 206.3 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

Hg(l)+Br_2(l)\rightarrow HgBr_2(s)    \Delta H^o_1=-170.7kJ   ......(1)

Hg(l)+HgBr2(s)\rightarrow Hg_2Br_2 \Delta H^o_2=-36.2kJ  .......(2)

The final reaction is:  

HgBr_2(s)\rightarrow 2Hg(l)+Br_2(l)  \Delta H^o_3=?   ......(3)

By reversing both the equations and then adding them, we get:

\Delta H^o_3=-\Delta H^o_1+(-\Delta H^o_2)=-(-170.7)+[-(-36.2kJ)]=206.3kJ

Hence, \Delta H^o_3 is 206.3 kJ.

What is the mass of HF produced by three reaction of 3.0 10 to the 23 molecules of H2 with excess F2
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

It is 20. g HF

Explanation:

H2 + F2 ==> 2HF  ...  balanced equation

Since the question is asking us to find the mass of product formed, we will want to first convert the molecules of H2 into moles of H2 (we could do this at the end of the calculations, but it's just as easy to do it now).

moles of H2 present (using Avogadro's number):  

3.0x1023 molecules H2 x 1 mole H2/6.02x1023 molecules = 0.498 moles H2

From the balanced equation, we see that 1 mole H2 produces 2 moles HF.  Therefore, we can now find the theoretical mass of HF produced from 0.498 moles H2:

0.498 moles H2 x 2 moles HF/1 mol H2 = 0.996 moles HF formed.

The molar mass of HF = 20.01 g/mole, thus...

0.996 moles HF x 20.01 g/mole = 19.93 g HF = 20. g HF formed (to 2 significant figures)

Find the ph of a 0.250 m solution of nac2h3o2. (the ka value of hc2h3o2 is 1.80×10−5). express your answer numerically to four s
Slav-nsk [51]
Answer is: pH value of solution of NaC₂H₃O₂ is 9.07.
Chemical reaction: C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻.
Ka(HC₂H₃O₂) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.<span>
Ka · Kb = Kw.
</span>1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³ · Kb = 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶; the ionic product of water at 25°C.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ ÷ 1,8·10⁻⁵ mol/dm³.<span>
Kb(</span>C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 5,56·10⁻¹⁰ mol/dm³.
c(C₂H₃O₂⁻) = 0,25 M.
[OH⁻] = [HC₂H₃O₂] = x.
[C₂H₃O₂⁻] = 0,25 M - x.
Kb = [OH⁻] · [HC₂H₃O₂] / [C₂H₃O₂⁻].
5,56·10⁻¹⁰ = x² / (0,25 M -x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH⁻] = 0,0000118 M.
pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0,0000118M) = 4,93.
pH + pOH = 14.
pH = 14 - 4,93 = 9,07.

What is the linkage that binds one monosaccharide to another?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

glycosidic bond

A covalent bond formed between a carbohydrate molecule and another molecule (in this case, between two monosaccharides) is known as a glycosidic bond (Figure 4). Glycosidic bonds (also called glycosidic linkages) can be of the alpha or the beta type.
