Answer:

This atom has 1 valence electron

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The ionization energy for the following element is:

I 496

II 4562

III 6912

IV 9544

V 13353

The element that has this ionization energy is sodium (Na)

Sodium has 11 electrons:

2 electrons on the first shell

8 electrons on the second shell

1 electron on the outer shell = 1 valence electron

This atom has 1 valence electron

What is the change in enthalpy when 4.00 mol of sulfur trioxide decomposes to sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas? 250 2(g) + O2(g) ®

lidiya [134]

Answer: A. -396 kJ

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states.

$2SO_2(g)+O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$ $\Delta H^0=198kJ$

Reversing the reaction, changes the sign of $\Delta H$

$2SO_3(g)\rightarrow 2SO_2(g)+O_2 (g)$ $\Delta H^0=-198kJ$

On multiplying the reaction by 2, enthalpy gets multiplied by 2:

$4SO_3(g)\rightarrow 4SO_2(g)+2O_2 (g)$ $\Delta H=2\times -198kJ=-396kJ$

Thus the enthalpy change for the reaction $4SO_3(g)\rightarrow 4SO_2(g)+2O_2 (g)$ is -396 kJ.
