The answer is -60.57 = -60.6 KJ.
CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l) ---> Ca(OH)2(s) +C2H2(g) H= -127.2 KJ
Hf C2H2 = 226.77
Hf Ca(OH)2 = -986.2
<span>Hf H2O = -285.83
Now,

</span><span>add them up. 226.77 - 986.2 + (2*285.83) = -187.77 
</span><span>Add back the total enthalpy that is given in the question
 -187.77+127.2 = -60.57 </span>

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy of the formation of CaC_2(s) is coming out to be -59.89 kJ/mol.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change 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)}]

For the given chemical reaction:

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2(s)+C_2H_2(g);\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-127.2kJ

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

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C_2H_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(Ca(OH)_2(s))})]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(l))})+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaC_2(s))})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(l))}=-285.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(Ca(OH)_2(s))}=-986.09kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(C_2H_2(g))}=227.4kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-127.2kJ

Putting values in above equation, we get:

-127.2=[(1\times (227.4)})+(1\times (-986.09))]-[(2\times (-285.8))+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CaC_2(s))})]\\\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CaC_2(s))}=-59.89kJ/mol

Hence, the enthalpy of the formation of CaC_2(s) is coming out to be -59.89 kJ/mol.

Calculate average kinetic energy of one mole of gas at 517K
Gekata [30.6K]

In an ideal gas, there are no attractive forces between the gas molecules, and there is no rotation or vibration within the molecules. The kinetic energy of the translational motion of an ideal gas depends on its temperature. The formula for the kinetic energy of a gas defines the average kinetic energy per molecule. The kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), and the temperature is measured in Kelvin (K).

K = average kinetic energy per molecule of gas (J)

kB = Boltzmann's constant ()

T = temperature (k)

Kinetic Energy of Gas Formula Questions:

1) Standard Temperature is defined to be . What is the average translational kinetic energy of a single molecule of an ideal gas at Standard Temperature?

Answer: The average translational kinetic energy of a molecule of an ideal gas can be found using the formula:

The average translational kinetic energy of a single molecule of an ideal gas is  (Joules).

2) One mole (mol) of any substance consists of  molecules (Avogadro's number). What is the translational kinetic energy of  of an ideal gas at ?

Answer: The translational kinetic energy of  of an ideal gas can be found by multiplying the formula for the average translational kinetic energy by the number of molecules in the sample. The number of molecules is  times Avogadro's number:

Answer:

The second one

Explanation:

Gas pressure is caused by gas molecules bouncing off the container walls and each other. Every time a molecule changes direction because it hits a wall, the change in momentum results in a small push. Due to the large number of molecules involved, the pushes add up to a large amount of pressure.

How many moles are there in 8.94*10^24 atoms P?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

<h2>14.85 moles </h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{8.94 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\   = 14.850498

We have the final answer as

<h3>14.85 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
