Mg₃N₂ + 6H₂O = 3Mg(OH)₂ + 2NH₃
Answer: +178.3 kJ
Explanation:
The chemical equation follows:
The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaO(s))})+(1\times \Delta H^0f_{CO_2}]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaCO_3(s))})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28CaO%28s%29%29%7D%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5E0f_%7BCO_2%7D%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_f_%7B%28CaCO_3%28s%29%29%7D%29%5D)
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
![\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-635.1))+(1\times (-393.5))]-[(1\times (-1206.9))]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-635.1%29%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-393.5%29%29%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20%28-1206.9%29%29%5D)
The DH°rxn for the decomposition of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is +178.3 kJ
The symbols for three different cations with 14 protons are Si²⁺, Si⁴⁺, and Si³⁺.
An element with 14 protons must be <em>silicon, S</em>i.
Its electron configuration is [Ne] 3s²3p², so it could lose up to four valence electrons.
The most likely cations are Si²⁺, Si⁴⁺, and Si³⁺ (or Si⁺).
The substances have different atomic masses, one is organic and one is inorganic, and Cl and Oxygen belong to different groups. There are more differences but these are the most basic ones.
