The answer to this problem

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

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

Which flow diagram best explains the energy transformations that occur within an automobile running on diesel

anyanavicka [17]

In diesel engines, the chemical energy in the fuel is changed to heat energy, causing the pistons to expand via mechanical energy. The mechanical energy is finally converted to kinetic energy, which is observed as the movement of the vehicle.

In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to what other part of the atom?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

b. The number of electrons

Explanation:

A "neutral atom" has a neutral charge. This means that its charge is equal to zero. In order for the charges to cancel out each other, the atom's positive charge should be equal to the negative charge. These being said, the number of electrons (negatively-charged) is then equal to the number of protons (positively-charged). Those atoms which are not neutral are called "ions." This means that they either have more or less electrons than the protons.
