Calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of carbon disulfide (CS2) from it's elements, given that C(graphite) + O2(g) → CO2(
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Standard enthalpy of formation of Carbon disulfide CS2 = 87.3 KJ/mol

Explanation:

forming CS2 means that it should in the product side

C(graphite) + O2 → CO2                  ΔH = -393.5

2S(rhombic) + 2O2 → 2SO2            ΔH = -296.4 x 2

CO2 + 2SO2 → CS2 + 3O2             ΔH = -1073.6 x -1

the second reaction is multiplied by 2 so that the SO2 and O2 can cancel out.

the third reaction is reversed (multiplied by -1) so that CS2 will be on the product side.

after adding the reaction and cancelling out similarities, the final reaction is: C(graphite) + 2S(rhombic) → CS2

Add ΔH to find the enthalpy of formation of CS2

ΔHf = (-393.5) + (-296.4 x 2) + (-1073.6 x -1) = 87.3 KJ/mol

How would I Determine the number of moles in 3.51 x 10^23 formula units of CaCl2
Andrej [43]

Answer:

by using this formula you will get it

Explanation:

number of mole = number of particles÷ Avogadro's number

n=3.51×10^23÷ 6.02×10^23

n = 0.58 moles

The pH of a 0.1 M solution of an unknown weak acid is 3.7. What is the pKa of this acid?
Ahat [919]

Explanation:

Knowing the pH, you know the concentration of protons:

−log[H+]=pH=3.7

[H+]=10−3.7 M

Now, since the weak (monoprotic) acid dissociates into its conjugate base and a proton, the mols of protons are equimolar with the mols of conjugate base---the protons came FROM the weak acid, so the conjugate base that forms must be equimolar with the protons given out to the solvent.

HA⇌A−+H+

Hence, [A−]=[H+] in the same solution volume. Using the equilibrium constant expression, we get:

Ka=[H+]2eq[HA]eq

Don't forget that the HA form of HA had given away protons, so the mols of protons given away to generate A− is subtracted from the mols of (protons in) HA.

=[H+]2eq[HA]i−[H+]eq

=(10−3.7M)20.02M−10−3.7M

Ka=2.0105×10−6 M
