Answer:

<em>There are </em><u><em>4 moles</em></u><em> of chloride ions in 2 moles of calcium chloride.</em>

Explanation:

Start by writing the chemical formula of calcium chloride.

The suffix -ide in chloride means that chlorine is working as the ion Cl⁻, this is with oxidation state -1.

Calcium, being an alkaline earth metal, uses oxidation state +2, Ca²⁺

Then, two atoms of Cl are combined with one atom of calcium, because in this way each Cl atom will accept one electron from a Ca atom, which will donate its two valence electrons.

That is indicated in the chemical formula with subscripts: <u><em>CaCl₂</em></u>, meaning that each formula-unit of calcium chloride has 2 ions of chlorine and 1 ions of calcium, or twice the number of moles of chloride ion.

1 mol CaCl₂ : 1 mol Ca⁺ : 2 mol Cl⁻

⇒ 2 mol CaCl₂ : 2 mol Ca⁺ : 4 mol Cl⁻

Hence, there are 4 moles of chloride ions in 2 moles of calcium chloride.

When 6.85×10⁵ cal is converted to kilojoules, the result obtained is 2866.04 KJ

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>

Energy (cal) = 6.85×10⁵ cal
Energy (KJ) =?

<h3>Conversion scale </h3>

1 cal = 0.004184 KJ

<h3>How to convert 6.85×10⁵ cal to kilojoules</h3>

1 cal = 0.004184 KJ

Therefore,

6.85×10⁵ cal = 6.85×10⁵ × 0.004184

6.85×10⁵ cal = 2866.04 KJ

Thus, 6.85×10⁵ cal is equivalent to 2866.04 KJ

Consider the formation of [Ni(en)3]2+ from [Ni(H2O)6]2+. The stepwise ΔG∘ values at 298 K are ΔG∘1 for first step=−42.9 kJ⋅mol−1

timurjin [86]

Answer:

kf = 1.16 x 10¹⁸

Explanation:

Step 1: [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(H₂O)₄(en)]²⁺ ΔG°1 = -42.9 kJmol⁻¹

Step 2: [Ni(H₂O)₄(en)]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(H₂O)₂(en)₂]²⁺ ΔG°2 = -35.8 kJmol⁻¹

Step 3: [Ni(H₂O)₂(en)₂]²⁺ + 1en → [Ni(en)₃]²⁺ ΔG°3 = -24.3 kJmol⁻¹

________________________________________________________

Overall reaction: [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ + 3en → [Ni(en)₃]²⁺ ΔG°r

ΔG°r = ΔG°1 + ΔG°2 + ΔG°3

ΔG°r = -42.9 - 35.8 - 24.3

ΔG°r = -103.0 kJmol⁻¹

ΔG°r = -RTlnKf

-103,000 Jmol⁻¹ = - 8.31 J.K⁻¹mol⁻¹ x 298 K x lnKf

kf = e ^(-103,000/-8.31x298)

kf = e ^41.59

kf = 1.16 x 10¹⁸
