<u>Ans: 650 J = 155 calories</u>
<u>Given:</u>
Energy in joules = 650 J
<u>To determine:</u>
The energy in calories
<u>Explanation:</u>
1 joule = 0.2388 calories
Therefore, 650 joules = 0.2388 calories * 650 J/1 J = 155 calories
Answer:
43.0 kJ
Explanation:
The free energy (ΔG) measures the total energy that is presented in a thermodynamic system that is available to produce useful work, especially at thermal machines. In a reaction, the value of the variation of it indicates if the process is spontaneous or nonspontaneous because the free energy intends to decrease, so, if ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous.
The standard value is measured at 25°C, 298 K, and the value of free energy varies with the temperature. It can be calculated by the standard-free energy of formation (G°f), and will be:
ΔG = ∑n*G°f products - ∑n*G°f reactants, where n is the coefficient of the substance in the balanced reaction.
By the balanced reaction given:
2NOCl(g) --> 2NO(g) + Cl2(g)
At ALEKS Data tab:
G°f, NOCl(g) = 66.1 kJ/mol
G°f, NO(g) = 87.6 kJ/mol
G°f, Cl2(g) = 0 kJ/mol
ΔG = 2*87.6 - 2*66.1
ΔG = 43.0 kJ
Thermodynamic quantity equivalent to the total heat content of a system It is equal to the internal energy of the system plus the product of pressure and volume
Answer:
Ionic bonds hold charged particles in solid NaCl together, such that they are unable to move or conduct electricity.
Explanation:
Consider an electric current that flows through a conductor: charge moves in a uniform direction from one end of the conductor towards the other.
Thus, there are two conditions for a substance to conduct electricity:
- The substance shall contain charged particles, and
- These charged particles shall be free to move across the substance.
A conductor of electricity shall meet both requirements.
Now, consider the structure of solid NaCl
. NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains an ocean of oppositely charged ions:
- Positive
ions, and - Negative
ions.
Ions carry charge. Thus, solid NaCl contains charged particles and satisfies the first condition.
Inside solid NaCl
, electrostatic attractions ("ionic bonds") between the oppositely charged ions hold these ions in rigid ionic lattices. These ions are unable to move relative to each other. As a result, they cannot flow through the solid to conduct electricity. Under solid state, NaCl is unable to satisfy the second condition.
As a side note, melting NaCl into a liquid breaks the ionic bonds and free the ions from the lattice. Liquid NaCl is a conductor of electricity.
