Given that the reactants are the very consituents (elements)  of the final compound, the enthalpy change of this reaction is the same  heat of formation, Hf.

That means that the enthalpy chage for the reaction is -296.8 kj/mol

Answer : The enthalpy change for the reaction is -296.8 kJ/mol

Explanation :

Enthalpy change : It is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(reactant)]

The equilibrium reaction follows:

S(s)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons SO_2(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))})-(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(S(s))}+1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))})

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-296.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(S(s))}=0kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=(1\times -296.8)-(1\times 0+1\times 0)=-296.8kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the reaction is -296.8 kJ/mol

Determine the spec gravity of 500 mL alcohol if the density is 0.79g/ml
slava [35]

Answer:

S.G = 0.79.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information in the problem, it turns out possible for us to calculate the specific gravity of this alcohol by simply dividing its density, 0.79 g/mL by that of the water, 1 g/mL just as a reference for us to work with:

S.G=\frac{\rho _{alc}}{\rho _w}

Thus, we plug in the densities to obtain:

S.G=\frac{0.79g/mL}{1g/mL}\\\\S.G=0.79

Which is dimensionless as g/mL is cancelled out due to its presence on both top and bottom of the previous formula.

Regards!

What volume of oxygen gas is released at STP if 10.0 g of potassium chlorate is decomposed? (The molar mass of KClO3 is 122.55 g
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
<span>KCl<span>O3</span><span>(s)</span>+Δ→KCl<span>(s)</span>+<span>32</span><span>O2</span><span>(g)</span></span>

Approx. <span>3L</span> of dioxygen gas will be evolved.

Explanation:

We assume that the reaction as written proceeds quantitatively.

Moles of <span>KCl<span>O3</span><span>(s)</span></span> = <span><span>10.0⋅g</span><span>122.55⋅g⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span></span></span> = <span>0.0816⋅mol</span>

And thus <span><span>32</span>×0.0816⋅mol</span> dioxygen are produced, i.e. <span>0.122⋅mol</span>.

At STP, an Ideal Gas occupies a volume of <span>22.4⋅L⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span></span>.

And thus, volume of gas produced = <span>22.4⋅L⋅mo<span>l<span>−1</span></span>×0.0816⋅mol≅3L</span>

Note that this reaction would not work well without catalysis, typically <span>Mn<span>O2</span></span>.

Explain how low atomspheric oxygen levels affected alligators growth in terms of celluar respiration
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Answer: Hyperoxic alligators show significantly lower breathing rates than their siblings in normoxic and hypoxic groups. Conversely, each breath supports greater oxygen consumption in hyperoxic animals than in other groups. Statistical significance between groups was calculated by ANOVA with post hoc Tukey-Kramer

Argon, which comprises almost 1% of the atmosphere, is approximately 27 times more abundant than CO 2, but does not contribute t
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The gas argon does not reach a state of vibrational excitation when infrared radiation strikes this gas.

Explanation:

The dry atmosphere is composed almost entirely of nitrogen (in a volumetric mixing ratio of 78.1%) and oxygen (20.9%), plus a series of oligogases such as argon (0.93%), helium and gases of greenhouse effect such as carbon dioxide (0.035%) and ozone. In addition, the atmosphere contains water vapor in very variable amounts (about 1%) and aerosols.

Greenhouse gases or greenhouse gases are the gaseous components of the atmosphere, both natural and anthropogenic, that absorb and emit radiation at certain wavelengths of the infrared radiation spectrum emitted by the Earth's surface, the atmosphere and clouds . In the Earth's atmosphere, the main greenhouse gases (GHG) are water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and ozone (O3 ). There is also in the atmosphere a series of greenhouse gases (GHG) created entirely by humans, such as halocarbons (compounds containing chlorine, bromine or fluorine and carbon, these compounds can act as potent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and they are also one of the causes of the depletion of the ozone layer in the atmosphere) regulated by the Montreal Protocol. In addition to CO2, N2O and CH4, the Kyoto Protocol sets standards regarding sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs).

The difference between argon and greenhouse gases such as CO2 is that the individual atoms in the argon do not have free bonds and therefore do not vibrate. As a consequence, it does not reach a state of vibrational excitation when infrared radiation strikes this gas.
