Answer:
-767,2kJ
Explanation:
It is possible to sum enthalpies of half-reactions to obtain the enthalpy of a global reaction using Hess's law. For the reactions:
1) H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) ⟶ H₂O(g) ΔH₁= −241.8 kJ
2) X(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ⟶ XCl₄(s) ΔH₂= +361.7 kJ
3) ¹/₂H₂(g) + ¹/₂Cl₂(g) ⟶ HCl (g) ΔH₃= −92.3 kJ
4) X(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) ΔH₄= − 607.9 kJ
5) H₂O(g) ⟶ H₂O(l) ΔH₅= − 44.0 kJ
The sum of (4) - (2) produce:
6) XCl₄(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ΔH₆ = ΔH₄ - ΔH₂ = -969,6 kJ
(6) + 4×(3):
7) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₇ = ΔH₆ + 4ΔH₃= -1338,8 kJ
(7) - 2×(1):
8) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂O(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₈ = ΔH₇ - 2ΔH₁= -855,2kJ
(8) - 2×(5):
9) XCl₄(s) + 2H₂O(l) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g) ΔH₉ = ΔH₈ - 2ΔH₅= <em>-767,2kJ</em>
I hope it helps!
Answer:
a. 63.2%
b. 11.7%
c. 73.3%
d. 0.995%
e. 55.5%
Explanation:
An ionic compound is a compound that is formed by ions, so one of the elements must donate electrons (which is the cation, the positive ion), and the other will receive these electrons (which is the anion, the negative ion).
The power of an element has to attract the electrons is called electronegativity, and so, as higher is the difference of electronegative of the elements, it is more probable that one of them will "still" the electrons and will form an ionic compound. The percent of this ionic character can be found by the Pauling's equation:
*100%
Where 
is the electronegativity difference of the elements. Thus, consulting an electronegativity table:
a. 
= 1.5
= 3.5
*100%
%IC = 63.2%
b. 
= 1.6
= 2.1
*100%
%IC = 11.7%
c. 
= 0.7
= 3.0
*100%
%IC = 73.3%
d. 
= 1.7
= 1.9
*100%
%IC = 0.995 %
e. 
= 1.2
= 3.0
*100%
%IC = 55.5%
Methane is the compound CH4, and burning it uses the reaction:
CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O, which is rather exothermic. To find the heat released by burning a certain amount of the substance, you should look at the bond enthalpy of each compound, and then compare the values before and after the reaction. In methane, there are 4 C-H bonds, which have bond energy of 416 kj/mol, resulting in a total bond energy of 1664 kj/mol. O2 is 494 kj/mol. Therefore we have a total of 2080 kj/mol on the left side. On the right side we have CO2, which has 2 C=O bonds, each at 799 kj/mol each, resulting in 1598 kj/mol, and H2O has 2 O-H bonds, at 459kj/mol each, resulting in a total of 2516 kj/mol on the right hand side. Now, this may be confusing because the left hand side seems to have less heat than the right, but you just need to remember: making minus breaking, which results in a total change of 436kj/mol heat evolved.
Now it is a simple matter of find the mols of CH4 reacted, using n=m/mr.
n = 9.5/16.042 = 0.592195 mol
Therefore, if we reacted 0.592195 mol, and we produced 436 kj for one mol, the total amount of energy evolved was 436*<span>0.592195 kj, or 258.197 kj.</span>
