Answer: ΔH for the reaction is -277.4 kJ
Explanation:
The balanced chemical reaction is,
The expression for enthalpy change is,
![\Delta H=\sum [n\times \Delta H(products)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H(reactant)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%28products%29%5D-%5Csum%20%5Bn%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H%28reactant%29%5D)
![\Delta H=[(n_{CCl_4}\times \Delta H_{CCl_4})+(n_{HCl}\times B.E_{HCl}) ]-[(n_{CH_4}\times \Delta H_{CH_4})+n_{Cl_2}\times \Delta H_{Cl_2}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5B%28n_%7BCCl_4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCCl_4%7D%29%2B%28n_%7BHCl%7D%5Ctimes%20B.E_%7BHCl%7D%29%20%5D-%5B%28n_%7BCH_4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCH_4%7D%29%2Bn_%7BCl_2%7D%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_%7BCl_2%7D%5D)
where,
n = number of moles
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get
![\Delta H=[(1\times -139)+(1\times -92.31) ]-[(1\times -74.87)+(1\times 121.0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H%3D%5B%281%5Ctimes%20-139%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20-92.31%29%20%5D-%5B%281%5Ctimes%20-74.87%29%2B%281%5Ctimes%20121.0%5D)
Therefore, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, -277.4 kJ
Answer:
The characteristics of cathode rays do not depend upon the material of electrodes and the nature of the gas present in the cathode ray tube.
The properties of a mineral depend on the kind of atoms of mineral being examined
The copper wire was sanded before burning in order to make sure that copper metal was exposed on the surface of the wire.
Answer: B
Explanation
The copper wire when placed in atmosphere without coating leads to oxidation of copper metal with respect to the impurities present in the atmosphere.
As copper is electropositive in nature, so electronegative ions present in the universe will try to react with copper and the copper will react easily with other elements.
So generally copper wire is coated with color or polymer coating.
In this case, the copper wire without any coating is sanded, so that the eddy sheets or polishing materials on friction with copper wire will remove the impurities by the electrostatic law of conservation of charges and charge transfer.
As the impurities are removed when copper wire is sanded, the copper atoms will be exposed on the surface of the wire leading to burning of copper in the copper wire.
