Answer:

2Na + MgF₂ → 2NaF + Mg

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Na + MgF₂ → NaF + Mg

Chemical equation:

2Na + MgF₂ → 2NaF + Mg

The given reaction follow the law of conservation of mass because there are equal number of atoms of sodium, magnesium and fluorine are present on both side of equation.

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Type of reaction:

The given chemical reaction is type of single replacement reaction. Sodium replace the magnesium and form sodium fluoride.

Single replacement:

It is the reaction in which one elements replace the other element in compound.

AB + C → AC + B

Use Hess's law and the following equations to calculate the ΔHreaction for the reaction CO(g) + 3H2(g) CH4(g) + H2O(g). (Show yo

Vesna [10]

Answer: The enthalpy of reaction is, -206.18 kJ

Explanation:-

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The final reaction is

$CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)$ $\Delta H_{rxn}=?$
