Answer:

-604 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the complete combustion of propane.

C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(l)

Considering the standard enthalpies of formation (ΔH°f) and the moles (n) in the balanced equation, we can calculate the standard enthalpy of the reaction (ΔH°) using the following expression.

ΔH° = 3 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂(g)) + 4 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O(l)) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(C₃H₈(g)) - 5 mol × ΔH°f(O₂(g))

ΔH° = 3 mol × (-393.5 kJ/mol) + 4 mol × (-285.8 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-103.8 kJ/mol) - 5 mol × 0

ΔH° = -2220 kJ

2220 kJ of heat are released per mole of propane. The heat released when 12.0 g of propane is combusted is: (molar mass 44.1 g/mol)

\frac{-2220kJ}{mol} .\frac{1mol}{44.1g}.12.0g =-604 kJ

Answer:  600 kJ

-

Explanation:

                        C₃H₈ (g)  + 5 O₂ (g) =============== 3 CO₂ (g)  +  4 H₂O (l)

Δ⁰Hf   kJ/mol       -104             0                                       -393.5         -285.8

Δ⁰Hcomb C₃H₈ = 3(-393.5) + 4 (-285.80) - (-104)  kJ/mol

Δ⁰Hcomb = 2219.70 kJ/mol

n= m /MW   MW c₃H₈ = 44.1 g/mol

n= 12 g/44.1 g/mol = 0.27 mol

then for 12 g the heat released will be

0.27 mol x 2219.70 kJ/mol =  600 KJ

What is molar concept​
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The molar mass of a substance is defined as the mass in grams of 1 mole of that substance. One mole of isotopically pure carbon-12 has a mass of 12 g. ... That is, the molar mass of a substance is the mass (in grams per mole) of 6.022 × 1023 atoms, molecules, or formula units of that substance.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.

Explanation:

Thermodynamic work is called the transfer of energy between the system and the environment by methods that do not depend on the difference in temperatures between the two. When a system is compressed or expanded, a thermodynamic work is produced which is called pressure-volume work (p - v).

The pressure-volume work done by a system that compresses or expands at constant pressure is given by the expression:

W system= -p*∆V

Where:

  • W system: Work exchanged by the system with the environment. Its unit of measure in the International System is the joule (J)
  • p: Pressure. Its unit of measurement in the International System is the pascal (Pa)
  • ∆V: Volume variation (∆V = Vf - Vi). Its unit of measurement in the International System is cubic meter (m³)

In this case:

  • p= 10 atm= 1.013*10⁶ Pa (being 1 atm= 101325 Pa)
  • ΔV= 2 L- 20 L= -18 L= -0.018 m³ (being 1 L=0.001 m³)

Replacing:

W system= -1.013*10⁶ Pa* (-0.018 m³)

Solving:

W system= 18234 J

<u><em>The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.</em></u>
