Weathering breaks down rock and other material
A vice, you can tighten it and then work on what is held in it without having to hold it still or in the position you want.
<u>Given:</u>
Mass of Ag = 1.67 g
Mass of Cl = 2.21 g
Heat evolved = 1.96 kJ
<u>To determine:</u>
The enthalpy of formation of AgCl(s)
<u>Explanation:</u>
The reaction is:
2Ag(s) + Cl2(g) → 2AgCl(s)
Calculate the moles of Ag and Cl from the given masses
Atomic mass of Ag = 108 g/mol
# moles of Ag = 1.67/108 = 0.0155 moles
Atomic mass of Cl = 35 g/mol
# moles of Cl = 2.21/35 = 0.0631 moles
Since moles of Ag << moles of Cl, silver is the limiting reagent.
Based on reaction stoichiometry: # moles of AgCl formed = 0.0155 moles
Enthalpy of formation of AgCl = 1.96 kJ/0.0155 moles = 126.5 kJ/mol
Ans: Formation enthalpy = 126.5 kJ/mol
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "A a naturally occurring, inorganic solid that has a crystal shape and a definite chemical composition." The correct definition of minerals is that it is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid that has a crystal shape and a definite chemical <span>composition</span>
