How do hydrogen bonds make water a liquid?

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

More specifically, hydrogen bonds are an attraction between the electronegative oxygen and the less electronegative hydrogen on a different molecule. It is extra strong as far as intermolecular forces go because the oxygen bonded to the hydrogens pulls the electrons away from the hydrogen, leaving the positive nucleus more exposed.

The heat of reaction for the combustion of propane is –2,045 kJ. This reaction is: C3H8(g) +502 (g) 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g). Determi
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

\Delta _fH_{C_3H_8}=-102.7kJ/mol

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can consider that the given heat of combustion is indeed the heat of reaction since it corresponds to the combustion of propane, which is computed by using the heat formation of all the involved species as shown below:

\Delta _cH=3*\Delta _fH_{CO_2}+4*\Delta _fH_{H_2O}-\Delta _fH_{C_3H_8}-5*\Delta _fH_{O_2}

Thus, since the heat of formation of gaseous carbon dioxide is -393.5 kJ/mol, water -241.8 kJ/mol and oxygen 0 kJ/mol, the heat of formation of propane is:

\Delta _fH_{C_3H_8}=3*\Delta _fH_{CO_2}+4*\Delta _fH_{H_2O}-5*\Delta _fH_{O_2}-\Delta _cH\\\\\Delta _fH_{C_3H_8}=3*(-393.5)+4*(-241.8)-5*0-(-2045)\\\\\Delta _fH_{C_3H_8}=-102.7kJ/mol

Best regards.

In a study of the decomposition of the compound XX via the reaction
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

( About ) 0.03232 M

Explanation:

Based on the units for this reaction it should be a second order reaction, and hence you would apply the integrated rate law equation "1 / [X] = kt + 1 / [X_o]"

This formula would be true for the following information -

{ X_o = the initial concentration of X, k = rate constant, [ X ] = the concentration after a certain time ( which is what you need to determine ), and t = time in minutes }

________

Therefore, all we have left to do is plug in the known values. The initial concentration of X is 0.467 at a time of 0 minutes, as you can tell from the given data. This is not relevant to the time needed in the formula, as we need to calculate the concentration of X after 18 minutes ( time = 18 minutes ). And of course k, the rate constant = 1.6

1 / [X] = ( 1.6 )( 18 minutes ) + 1 / ( 0.467 ) - Now let's solve for X

1 / [X] = 28.8 + 1 / ( 0.467 ),

1 / [X] = 28.8 + 2.1413...,

1 / [X] = 31,

[X] = 1 / 31 = ( About ) 0.03232 M

Now for this last bit here you probably are wondering why 1 / 31 is not 0.03232, rather 0.032258... Well, I did approximate one of the numbers along the way ( 2.1413... ) and took the precise value into account on my own and solved a bit more accurately. So that is your solution! The concentration of X after 18 minutes is about 0.03232 M
