Answer:

The net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Step 1 : Calcium carbide and water react to form acetylene and calcium hydroxide

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow

             C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_1=-414 kJ..[1]

Step 2 : Acetylene, carbon dioxide and water react to form acrylic acid

6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g),\Delta H_2=132 kJ..[2]

Using Hess's law:

[1] × 6 + [2]

6CaC_2(s)+16H_2O(g)+3CO_2\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCOOH(g)+6Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_3=?

\Delta H_3=6\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2

\Delta H_3=6\times (-414 kJ)+132 kJ=-2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 5 moles of acrylic acid = -2352 kJ

The energy released on formation of 1 moles of acrylic acid :

=\frac{-2352 kJ}{5 mol}=-470.4 kJ/mol

Hence, the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is -470.4 kJ/mol.

If a certain gas occupies a volume of 10. L when the applied pressure is 5.0 atm , find the pressure when the gas occupies a vol
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

20L is the new volume

Explanation:

In this case, moles and T° from the gas remain constant. This is the formula we must apply, to solve this:

P₁ . V₁ = P₂ . V₂

5 atm . 10 L = P₂ . 2.5L

P₂ = (5 atm . 10 L) / 2.5L →20L

Balance the following equations: (c) H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Thus in the reactants, there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine .Thus there has to be 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine in the product as well. Thus a coefficient of 2 is placed in front of HI.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)

How many moles of NaCl are needed to make 10.0L of a 5 M solution of<br> Salt water?*
vesna_86 [32]

Answer: 50 mol

Explanation:

Molarity=\frac{Moles -of -solute}{liters -of -solution}

M=\frac{mol}{L}

mol=M*L

mol=5*10\\mol=50mol

What is the final, balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: Balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O.

Explanation:

A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is called a balanced chemical equation.

For example, Cu \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + 2e^{-}

NO^{-}_{3} + 2e^{-} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O

On cancelling the common species from both these half-reactions, the complete balanced equation will be as follows.

Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O

Thus, we can conclude that balanced equation that is formed by combining these two half reactions is Cu + NO^{-}_{3} + 2H^{+} \rightarrow Cu^{2+} + NO^{-}_{2} + H_{2}O.
