Answer:

  • <em><u>Option A. </u></em><u><em>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</em></u>

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

  • Decomposition reactions
  • Synthesis or combination reaction
  • Single replacement reactions
  • Double replacement reactions
  • Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

  • <u>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</u>

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

  • <u>4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O</u> is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

  • <u>ZnS + 3 O₂ →  2ZnO + 2SO₂ </u>is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

  • <u>2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ </u>is a double replacement reaction because two  ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).

When 3.93 grams of lactic acid, CHoOs(s), are burned in a bomb
aliya0001 [1]

The heat released in the combustion of lactic acid is absorbed by the

calorimeter and in the decomposition of the lactic acid.

ΔH°f of lactic acid is approximately <u>-716.2 kJ</u>

Reasons:

Known parameters are;

Mass of the lactic acid = 3.93 grams

Heat  capacity of the bomb calorimeter = 10.80 kJ·K⁻¹

Change in temperature of the calorimeter, ΔT = 5.34 K

ΔHrxn = ΔErxn

ΔH°f of H₂O(l) = -285.8 kJ·mol⁻¹

ΔH°f of CO₂(g) = -393.5 kJ·mol⁻¹

The chemical equation for the reaction is presented as follows;

  • C₃H₆O₃ + 2O₂ → 3CO₂ + 3H₂O

The heat of the reaction = 10.80 kJ·K⁻¹ × 5.34 K = 57.672 kJ

Molar mass of C₃H₆O₃ = 90.07 g/mol

Number of moles of C₃H₆O₃ = \dfrac{3.93 \, g}{90.07 \, g/mol} = 0.043633 moles

Number of moles of CO₂ produced = 3 × 0.043633 moles = 0.130899 moles

Heat produced = 0.130899 mole × -285.8 kJ·mol⁻¹ = -37.4109342 kJ

Moles of H₂O produced = 0.130899 moles

Heat produced = 0.130899 mole × -393.5 ≈ -51.51 kJ

Therefore, we have;

Heat absorbed by the lactic acid = ΔH°f of H₂O + ΔH°f of CO₂ + Heat absorbed by the calorimeter

Which gives;

Heat absorbed by lactic acid  = -37.4109342 kJ - 51.51 kJ + 57.672 kJ ≈ -31.249 kJ

The heat absorbed by the lactic acid ≈ -31.249 kJ

  • \Delta H^{\circ}f \ of \ C_3H_6O_3 = \dfrac{-31.249}{0.043633} \approx  -716.2

ΔH°f of C₃H₆O₃ ≈ -716.2 kJ

Heat of formation of lactic acid ≈ <u>-716.2 kJ</u>.

How many moles of solute are in 53.1 mL of 12.5M HCI?
Deffense [45]
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters.

From this relation, we can figure out the number of moles of solute by multiplying the molarity of the solution by the volume in liters.

We have 53.1 mL, or 0.0531 L, of a 12.5 M, or 12.5 mol/L, solution. Multiplying 12.5 mol/L by 0.0531 L, we obtain 0.664 moles. So, in this volume of solution, there are 0.664 moles of solute (HCl).
