Answer:

- 13,150.6kJ

Explanation:

CH4 + 2 O2 ------> CO2 + 2 H2O ΔH= – 890 kJ

The ΔH is enthalpy change of combustion , which is the heat is either absorbed or released by the combustion of one mole of a substance.

ΔH=−890 kJ/mol (released in the combustion of one mole of methane)

using the molar mass  (in grams )of methane to get moles of sample

(237g × 1 mole of CH4)/16.04g=14.776 moles  of CH4

Since 1 mole produces 890 kJ of heat upon combustion, then 14.776 moles will produce

ΔH = 14.776moles of CH4 × 890kJ/1mole of CH4

=13,150.6kJ

Therefore ΔH = - 13,150.6kJ

RSB [31]

Answer:

- 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹coulombs

Explanation:

Charge on individual oil droplet would be multiple of charge on one electron . So we will find out the minimum common factor of given individual charges that is the LCM of all the charges given.

LCM of given charges like 3.204 , 4.806 ,8.01 and 14.42 . We have neglected the power of ten( 10⁻¹⁹)  because it is  already a common factor to all.

The LCM  is 1.602 . So charge on electron is 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹.

What stress will shift the following equilibrium system to the left?
Alona [7]

<u>Answer:</u> Increasing temperature

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Principle of Le Chatelier states that <u>if a system in equilibrium is subjected to a change of conditions, it will move to a new position in order to counteract the effect that disturbed it and recover the state of equilibrium. </u>

The variation of one or several of the following factors can alter the equilibrium condition in a chemical reaction:

  • Temperature
  • The pressure
  • The volume
  • The concentration of reactants or products

In the case of the reaction in the question, <u>the change that moves the balance to the left will be the one that moves it towards the reagents</u>, that is, that favors the production of reagents instead of products.

  • Decreasing the concentration of SO3 and increasing the concentration of SO2 <u>will favor the production of SO3</u>, which is the product of the reaction.
  • Decreasing the volume increases the pressure of the system and the balance will move to where there is less number of moles. In the case of the reaction in question, we have 3 moles of molecules in the reactants (1 mole of O2 + 2 moles of SO2) while in the products there are 2 moles of SO3 only, therefore, <u>decreasing the volume will displace the balance to the right</u>, which corresponds to the sense in which there is less number of moles.

The reaction of the question is an exothermic since ΔH <0, therefore in the reaction heat is produced and it can be written in the following way,

2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g) + heat

  • So, if we increase the temperature we will be adding heat to the system, so the balance would move to the left to compensate for the excess heat in the system.
