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.

Afirmar que el h20 es la formula que corresponde al agua, esto es una teoría, idea, ley, hipotesis o experimentación
frozen [14]

Answer:

Ley.

Explanation:

En la teoría de la ciencia, la regularidad de los procesos en la naturaleza se denomina ley de la naturaleza. Las leyes naturales se diferencian de otras leyes en que los seres humanos no pueden ponerlas en vigor ni anularlas a su discreción. En tal sentido, la composición química del agua es indudablemente una ley natural, en tanto el hombre no puede modificarla sin modificar las características inherentes del agua como tal.

What happens when magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide?
I am Lyosha [343]

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. On the other hand, atomic number of iodine is 53 and its electronic configuration is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{5}.

Hence, there are 7 valence electrons in an iodine atom and there are 2 valence electrons in a magnesium atom.

So, one atom of iodine requires one electron from a donor atom to complete its octet. But one magnesium atom contains two valence electrons.

Therefore, one magnesium atom will combine with two iodine atoms to result in the formation of magnesium iodide as follows.  

            Mg^{2+} + 2I^{-} \rightarrow MgI_{2}

Therefore, an ionic bond will be formed when  magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide.

Hydrazine (N2H4) is used as rocket fuel. It reacts with oxygen to form nitrogen and water.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

See explanation below for answers

Explanation:

This is a stochiometry reaction. LEt's write the overall reaction again:

N₂H₄ + O₂ ---------> N₂ + 2H₂O

This reaction is taking place at Standard temperature and pressure conditions (STP) which are P = 1 atm and T = 273 K.  To know the volume of N₂ formed, we need to know first how many moles are formed, and this can be calculated with the reagents and the limiting reagent. Let's calculate the moles first of the reagents:

MM N₂H₄ = 32 g/mol;    MM O₂ = 32 g/mol

mol N₂H₄ = 2000 / 32 = 62.5 moles

mol O₂ ? 2100 / 32 = 65.63 moles

Now that we have the moles, we need to apply the stochiometry and calculate the limiting reagent. According to the overall reaction we have a mole ratio of 1:1 between N₂H₄ and O₂, therefore:

1 mole N₂H₄ ---------> 1 mole O₂

62.5 moles ----------> X

X = 62.5 moles of O₂

But we have 65.63 moles, therefore, the limiting reactant is the N₂H₄.

We also have a 1:1 mole ratio with the N₂, so:

moles N₂H₄ = moles N₂ = 62.5 moles

Now that we have the moles, we can calculate the volume with the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

V = nRT / P

R: gas constant (0.082 L atm / K mol)

Replacing we have:

v = 62.5 * 0.082 * 273 / 1

V = 1399.13 L of N₂

Now, how many grams of the excess remains?, we know how many moles are reacting so, let's see how much is left:

moles remaining = 65.63 - 62.5 = 3.12 moles

then the mass of oxygen:

m = 3.12 * 32 = 100.16 g of O₂
