The empirical formula for this compound that contain 31.14%sulfur and 68.86%chlorine by mass
Kaylis [27]

The empirical formula is SCl_2.

The <em>empirical formula</em> (EF) is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.

The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.

So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio </em>of S to Cl.

Assume that you have 100 g of sample.

Then it contains 31.14 g S and 68.86 g Cl.

<em>Step</em> 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>

Moles of S = 31.14 g S × (1 mol S/(32.06 g S) = 0.971 30 mol S  

Moles of Cl = 68.86 g Cl × (1 mol Cl/35.45 g Cl) = 1.9425 mol Cl

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of each element

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

S:Cl = 0.971 30: 1.9425 = 1:1.9998 ≈ 1:2

<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>

EF = SCl_2

A certain reaction is thermodynamically favored at temperatures below 400. K, but it is not favored at temperatures above 400. K
Ilya [14]

Answer:

-0.050 kJ/mol.K

Explanation:

  • A certain reaction is thermodynamically favored at temperatures below 400. K, that is, ΔG° < 0 below 400. K
  • The reaction is not favored at temperatures above 400. K, that is. ΔG° > 0 above 400. K

All in all, ΔG° = 0 at 400. K.

We can find ΔS° using the following expression.

ΔG° = ΔH° - T.ΔS°

0 = -20 kJ/mol - 400. K .ΔS°

ΔS° = -0.050 kJ/mol.K
