<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is No.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=131.3kJ/mol=131300J/mol      (Conversion factor:  1 kJ = 1000)

\Delta S^o_{rxn}=134J/mol.K

Temperature of the reaction = 298 K

To calculate the standard Gibbs's free energy of the reaction, we use the equation:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=\Delta H^o_{rxn}-T\Delta S^o_{rxn}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta G^o_{rxn}=131300J/mol-[(298K)\times (134J/mol.K)]=91368J/mol

For the reaction to be spontaneous, the Gibbs free energy of the reaction must come out to be negative. But, from the above calculation, the Gibbs free energy of the reaction is positive. Thus, the reaction is non-spontaneous.

Hence, the correct answer is No.

When a 14.2-g sample of mercury (II) oxide is decomposed into its elements by heating, 13.2 g Hg is obtained. What is the percen
nevsk [136]
Mercury (ii) oxide is made up of mercury and oxygen. The total mass of mercury (ii) oxide is 14.2 g, after decomposition 13.2 g of mercury were formed, therefore the mass of oxygen 1 g (14.2 g -13.2 g).
Percentage of oxygen = (1/14.2)×100 = 7.04%
Percentage of mercury = (13.2/14.2) × 100 = 92.96%
Therefore, percentage composition of the compound, oxygen is 7.04% and mercury is 92.96%.

What data should be plotted to show that experimental concentration data fits a first-order reaction? A) 1/[reactant] vs. time B
natita [175]

Answer:

C) In[reactant] vs. time

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the integrated rate law equation is:

A = A_{0}e^{-kt}

where A(0) = initial concentration of the reactant

A = concentration after time 't'

k = rate constant

Taking ln on both sides gives:

ln[A] = ln[A]_{0}-kt

Therefore a plot of ln[A] vs t should give a straight line with a slope = -k

Hence, ln[reactant] vs time should be plotted for a first order reaction.
