Many portable gas heaters and grills use propane, C3H8(g). Using enthalpies of formation, calculate the quantity of heat produce

d when 12.0 g of propane is completely combusted in air under standard conditions. Assume that liquid water is forming. Express the heat in kilojoules to three significant digits.

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

A reaction is started with both reactants and products and proceeds in the reverse direction to reach equilibrium. Which of the
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

A) Yes. The reaction reaches equilibrium when the rate of reaction of the reverse reaction is equal to the rate of the forward reaction , then the only cause for the reverse reaction to be favoured is that the initial rate of the reverse was greater than the forward one.

B) No. The rate constant of the reverse reaction can be greater than the forward one  but the rate also depends on concentrations, thus a reverse reaction with greater rate constant can result in the net reaction proceeding in the forward reaction, the reverse reaction or be at equilibrium depending on the concentrations or reactants and products

C) No. A lower activation energy means a higher rate constant , but a higher rate constant does not mean that the net reaction will proceed to the reactants ( see point B)

D) No. The energy changes determine conditions under thermodynamic equilibrium and therefore the net direction of the reaction will depend on the temperature and concentrations of reactants and products with respect to the equilibrium conditions.

Alika [10]

Let's see

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail E=hv

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

  • lambda is wavelength
  • h is Planck constant
  • c is velocity of sound in air
  • E in energy

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \lambda=\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{2.89\times 10^{-19}}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \lambda=6.878\times 10^{-7}m

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \lambda=68.8\mu m

Explanation:
                   Let suppose you burn 168 g ( 2 moles ) of NaHCO₃, a gas will produced and product is left behind. On measuring the product formed it will be almost equal to 105 g. This shows that the product is Na₂CO₃ and 1 mole of it is being produced after decomposition of sodium bicarbonate.
