Answer:

142.36 kg

Explanation:

volume of water in the lake = surface area x depth

= 18.5 x ( 1760 x 3 )² x 39 ft³

= 2.011 x 10¹⁰ ft³

= 2.011 x 10¹⁰ x 28.3168 liter .

= 56.945 x 10¹⁰ liter .

concentration of mercury = .25 x 10⁻⁶ g / liter

= 25 x 10⁻⁸ g / liter

= 25 x 10⁻¹¹ kg / liter

mass of mercury in the water of lake

= 25 x 10⁻¹¹ x 56.945 x 10¹⁰ kg

= 142.36 kg .

ΔG⁰ = ΔH⁰ - TΔS
ΔH⁰ = Hf,(CH₃OH) - Hf,(CO) = -238.7 + 110.5 = -128.2 kJ/mol
ΔS = S(CH₃OH) - S(CO) - 2S(H₂) = 126.8 - 197.7 - 2 x 130.6 = -332.1 J/mol.K
So 
ΔG⁰ = - 128200 + 332.1 T
For the reaction to be spontaneous:
ΔG⁰ < 0
So: -128200 + 332.1 T < 0
332.1 T < 128200
T < 386.028 K

When N2(g) reacts with H2(g) to form NH3(g), 92.2 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of N2(g) that reacts. Write a balanced
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃   ΔH = - 92.2KJ

Explanation:

Let's write out the chemical equation between Nitrogen and Hydrogen to Form Ammonia.

Nitrogen + Hydrogen = Ammonia

N₂ + H₂ → NH₃

A Thermochemical Equation is a balanced stoichiometric chemical equation that includes the enthalpy change, ΔH.

The balanced stoichiometric chemical equation is given as;

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

92.2 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of N2(g) that reacts. And from the equation, 1 mole of N2 reacts.

The enthalpy change, ΔH = - 92.2KJ. The negative sign is because heat is being evolved.

The balanced thermochemical equation;

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃   ΔH = - 92.2KJ
