Which substances have /_\Hf = 0 kJ/mol by definition? Select all that apply.

2 answers:

8 0

Answer: O₂(g), Br₂(l) Fe(s), He(g)


Justification:

1) The state variable given, ΔHf°, is the standard enthalpy of formation. By definition it is the change in the enthalpy that accompanies the formation of a mole of compound in the standard state, from its constituent elements in the standard state.


2) Since the standard state of O₂(g), Br₂(l) Fe(s), He(g) is the very same shown, they do not evolve any heat for its formation. This is, that is the same state of the constituents, and no change is involved.


That is why, ΔHf°, of those elements is 0.

Explanation:

8H+(aq) + MnO4-(aq) + 5Fe2+(aq) → Mn2+(aq) + 5Fe3+(aq) + 4H2O(l)

To determine if a substance was reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number at the reactant and product side is compared.

When oxidation occurs, an element loses electrons and its oxidation number increases (becomes more positive). When reduction occurs, an element gains electrons and its oxidation number decreases or is reduced (becomes more negative).

H+ (oxidized or reduced) Answer 1 Choose...

There is an increase in oxidation number from 0 to 1. This means H+ was oxidized.

MnO4- (oxidizing or reducing agent) Answer 2 Choose...

In chemistry, an oxidizing agent is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances — in other words to accept their electrons

MnO4- is a strong oxidizing agent.

Fe2+ (oxidizing or reducing agent) Answer 3 Choose...

A reducing agent means it will itself get oxidized. In this reaction, Fe2+ is the reducing agent.

Fe2+ (oxidized or reduced) Answer 4 Choose...

Oxidized

O in MnO4- (oxidized or reduced) Answer 5 Choose...

There is no change in oxidation number of , so it was neither reduced nor was it oxidized.

Mn in MnO4- (oxidized or reduced) Answer 6 Choose...

There is a decreaase in oxidation number from +7 to +2. This means reduction.

For the generic equilibrium HA(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + A−(aq), which of these statements is true? For the generic equilibrium , which of

timama [110]

Answer: The correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.

Explanation:

Common ion effect is defined as the effect which occurs on equilibrium when a common ion (an ion which is already present in the solution) is added to a solution. This effect generally decreases the solubility of a solute.

Equilibrium reaction of HA and KA follows the equation:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)$

$KA\rightleftharpoons K^+(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)$

According to Le-Chateliers principle, if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in order to minimize the effect.

In the equilibrium reactions, $A^-$ ion is getting increased on the product side, so the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize this effect, which is in the direction of HA.

Thus, the addition of KA will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

Equilibrium constant depends on the temperature of the system. It does not have any effect on any change of pH.

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ions present in the solution

If the solution has high hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be low.
If the solution has low hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be high.

As, the equilibrium is shifting in the left direction, that means concentration of $H^+$ ions are getting decreases. This will increase the pH of the solution.

Hence, the correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.
