<span>Answer: he strong acid- strong base reaction should give more energy. So why is the heat of neutralization (enthalpy) of a strong acid such as HCl with a strong base like NaOH more than the heat of neutralization of a weak acid, such as acetic acid with NaOH? The enthalpy of neutralization of an acid by a base is defined as heat change when one gram equivalent of acid is neutralized by a base ,the reaction being carried out in dilute aqueous solution ... enthalpy of neutralization of base by an acid is defined in a similar manner... for example when 1 gram equivalent of HCl is neutralized with NaOH 57.1 kj of heat is produced .. HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq)----> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)... H = -57.1 kj/mole hence enthalpy of neutralization of HCl with NaOH is 57.1 kj enthalpy of neutralization of any strong acid (like HCl,HNO3,H2SO4) with a strong base (like LiOH,NaOH,KOH) or vice versa is always the same i.e. 57.1 kj...this is because strong acids ,strong bases and salt that they form are all completely ionized in dilute aqueous solutions ...thus the reaction between any strong acid and strong base for example in the above case may be written as : NaOH (aq) + HCl(aq) -----> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)... H = -57.1 kj/mole they will dissociate as : Na(+) (aq) + OH(-) (aq) + H(+) (aq) + Cl(-) (aq) ---> Na(+) (aq) + Cl(-) (aq) + H2O (l) common ions will cancel out.. H(+) (aq) + OH(-) (aq) ----> H2O (l) thus neutralization is simply a reaction between H(+) ions given by acids and OH(-) ions given by base to form one mole of H2O.....since strong acid and strong base completely ionize in aqueous solution number of H(+) and OH(-) produced by 1 gram equivalent of strong acid and strong base is always the same ...hence enthalpy of neutralization between a strong acid and strong base is always constant... if either the acid or base or both are weak the enthalpy of neutralization is less than 57.1 kj ...the reason for this behaviour can be explained by considering the neutralization between a strong base like NaOH and weak acid like acetic acid.. now acetic acid ionizes to a small extent whereas NaOH ionizes completely as : NaOH (aq) ----> Na(+) (aq) + OH(-) (aq) CH3COOH (aq)<--------> CH3COO(-)(aq) + H(+)(aq) (an equilibrium) when H(+) given by acid combine with OH(-) given by base the equilibrium shifts to right (in accordance with Le Chatelier's principle) ,so more of acetic acid dissociates ...a part of heat produced during combination of H(+) and OH(-) ions is used up for complete dissociation of acetic acid ...the heat thus used up is called enthalpy of dissociation or enthalpy of ionization ..it is 1.9 kj for acetic acid...hence net heat evolved in above reaction is 57.1 - 1. 9 = 55.2 kj ...which less than that evolved in strong base and strong acid reaction.</span>

A quantity of 0.225 g of a metal M (molar mass = 27.0 g/mol) liberated 0.303 L of molecular hydrogen (measured at 17°C and 741 m
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Oxide of M is M_2O_3 and sulfate of M_2(SO_4)_3

Explanation:

0.303 L of molecular hydrogen gas measured at 17°C and 741 mmHg.

Let moles of hydrogen gas be n.

Temperature of the gas ,T= 17°C =290 K

Pressure of the gas ,P= 741 mmHg= 0.9633 atm

Volume occupied by gas , V = 0.303 L

Using an ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9633 atm\times 0.303 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 290 K}=0.01225 mol

Moles of hydrogen gas produced = 0.01225 mol

2M+2xHCl\rightarrow 2MCl_x+xH_2

Moles of metal =\frac{0.225 g}{27.0 g/mol}=8.3333 mol

So, 8.3333 mol of metal M gives 0.01225 mol of hydrogen gas.

\frac{8.3333}{0.01225 mol}=\frac{2}{x}

x = 2.9 ≈ 3

2M+6HCl\rightarrow 2MCl_3+3H_2

MCl_3\rightarrow M^{3+}+Cl^-

Formulas for the oxide and sulfate of M will be:

Oxide of M is M_2O_3 and sulfate of M_2(SO_4)_3.

How does examining past data help prepare people for feature weather hazards?
klemol [59]

Answer:

It lets people prepare for future weather hazards:

- If, in certain months and on certain dates, the past data shows that there's a history of rain or heat stroke on those days, people can prepare in the future for those events.

- They can also expect wind speeds, temperatures and stuff like that!

Acetylene, C2H2, can be converted to ethane, C2H6, by a process known as hydrogenation. The reaction is C2H2(g) + 2H2(g) ⇌ C2H6(
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

-255.4 kJ

Explanation:

The free energy of a reversible reaction can be calculated by:

ΔG = (ΔG° + RTlnQ)*n

Where R is the gas constant (8.314x10⁻³ kJ/mol.K), T is the temperature in K, n is the number of moles of the products (n =1), and Q is the reaction quotient, which is calculated based on the multiplication of partial pressures by the partial pressure of the products elevated by their coefficient divide by the multiplication of the partial pressure of the reactants elevated by their coefficients.

C₂H₂(g) + 2H₂(g) ⇄ C₂H₆(g)

Q = pC₂H₆/[pC₂H₂ * (pH₂)²]

Q = 0.261/[8.58*(3.06)²]

Q = 3.2487x10⁻³

ΔG = -241.2 + 8.314x10⁻³x298*ln(3.2487x10⁻³)

ΔG = -255.4 kJ

List two reasons why atmospheric pressure changes ​
Dahasolnce [82]
This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature. Warm air is less dense than cooler air because the gas molecules in warm air have a greater velocity and are farther apart than in cooler air.
