It is softer than topaz and and it is softer than diamond (diamond has a Mohs hardness of 10, which is the highest value of the scale)
Answer : The value of
for the reaction is -959.1 kJ
Explanation :
The given balanced chemical reaction is,

First we have to calculate the enthalpy of reaction
.

![\Delta H^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo%3D%5Bn_%7BH_2O%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f%5E0_%7B%28H_2O%29%7D%2Bn_%7BSO_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f%5E0_%7B%28SO_2%29%7D%5D-%5Bn_%7BH_2S%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f%5E0_%7B%28H_2S%29%7D%2Bn_%7BO_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f%5E0_%7B%28O_2%29%7D%5D)
where,
= enthalpy of reaction = ?
n = number of moles
= standard enthalpy of formation
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:
![\Delta H^o=[2mole\times (-242kJ/mol)+2mole\times (-296.8kJ/mol)}]-[2mole\times (-21kJ/mol)+3mole\times (0kJ/mol)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%5Eo%3D%5B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28-242kJ%2Fmol%29%2B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28-296.8kJ%2Fmol%29%7D%5D-%5B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28-21kJ%2Fmol%29%2B3mole%5Ctimes%20%280kJ%2Fmol%29%5D)

conversion used : (1 kJ = 1000 J)
Now we have to calculate the entropy of reaction
.

![\Delta S^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(O_2)}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20S%5Eo%3D%5Bn_%7BH_2O%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20S_f%5E0_%7B%28H_2O%29%7D%2Bn_%7BSO_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20S_f%5E0_%7B%28SO_2%29%7D%5D-%5Bn_%7BH_2S%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20S_f%5E0_%7B%28H_2S%29%7D%2Bn_%7BO_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20S_f%5E0_%7B%28O_2%29%7D%5D)
where,
= entropy of reaction = ?
n = number of moles
= standard entropy of formation
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:
![\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (189J/K.mol)+2mole\times (248J/K.mol)}]-[2mole\times (206J/K.mol)+3mole\times (205J/K.mol)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20S%5Eo%3D%5B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28189J%2FK.mol%29%2B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28248J%2FK.mol%29%7D%5D-%5B2mole%5Ctimes%20%28206J%2FK.mol%29%2B3mole%5Ctimes%20%28205J%2FK.mol%29%5D)

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy of reaction
.
As we know that,

At room temperature, the temperature is 500 K.


Therefore, the value of
for the reaction is -959.1 kJ
Answer:
(a) Pair 1: H₂S and HS⁻
Pair 2: NH₃ and NH₄⁺
(b) Pair 1: HSO₄⁻ and SO₄⁻
Pair 2: NH₃ and NH₄⁺
(c) Pair 1: HBr and Br⁻
Pair 2: CH₃O⁻ and CH₃OH
(d) Pair 1: HNO₃ and NO₃⁻
Pair 2: H₃O⁺
Explanation:
When an acid loses its proton (H⁺), a conjugate base is produced.
When a base accepts a proton (H⁺), it forms a conjugate acid.
(a) H₂S is an acid. When it loses a proton, it forms the conjugate base HS⁻.
NH₃ is a base. When NH₃ gains a proton, it forms the conjugate acid NH₄⁺
(b) The acid HSO₄⁻ loses a H⁺ ion and forms the conjugate base SO₄²⁻.
The base NH₃ accepts a H⁺ ion to form the conjugate acid NH₄⁺.
(c) HBr is an acid. When loses the H⁺ ion, it forms the conjugate base Br⁻.
CH₃O⁻ accepts a H⁺ ion to form the conjugate acid CH₃OH.
(d) HNO₃ loses a proton to form the conjugate base NO₃⁻.
H₂O gains a proton to form the conjugate acid H₃O⁺.
