Use the following information S(s)+O2(g)→SO2(g), ΔH∘ = -296.8kJ SO2(g)+12O2(g)→SO3(g) , ΔH∘ = -98.9kJ to calculate ΔH∘f for H2SO

4(aq) (in kilojoules per mole). [For H2O(l),ΔH∘f = -285.8kJ/mol].

Answer : The enthalpy of formation of H_2SO_4 is, -812.4 kJ/mole

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The formation of H_2SO_4 will be,

S+H_2+2O_2\rightarrow H_2SO_4    \Delta H_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) S+O_2\rightarrow SO_2     \Delta H_1=-298.2

(2) SO_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow SO_3    \Delta H_2=-98.2

(3) SO_3+H_2O\rightarrow H_2SO_4    \Delta H_3=-130.2

(4) H_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow H_2O    \Delta H_4=-285.8

Now adding all the equations, we get the expression for enthalpy of formation of H_2SO_4 will be,

\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3+\Delta H_4

\Delta H=(-298.2)+(-98.2)+(-130.2)+(-285.8)

\Delta H=-812.4kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of formation of H_2SO_4 is, -812.4 kJ/mole

When Jorge looks at the Moon from Earth, he sees different phases of the Moon depending on the time of the month he observes the
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Because of the revolution of the moon about the earth.

Explanation:

The moon is the natural satellite of the earth; which rotates about its axes and orbits around the earth. As the moon orbits the earth with respect to time, it would complete a revolution in 27.3 days.

During revolution, different phases of the moon can be observed by someone on the earth. This is due to its location at different time during the process. Therefore, Jorge was able to see different phases of the moon because of its revolution about the earth.

It has been established that 8.0x10^4 tons of gold (Au) have been mined. Assume gold cost $350 per ounce. Whats the total worth
bazaltina [42]
So first lets find out how much gold there is. 10^4=10,000so that means 8.0x10,000= 8,000. now we have to find out how much money that is. All we have to do is multiply 8,000 by 350. When multiplied you get $2,800,000
