Answer : The bond energy of C\equiv C is 800 kJ/mol.

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

For 1 mole, the reaction will be:

C_2H_2+2.5O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+H_2O

As we know that:

The enthalpy change of reaction = E(bonds broken) - E(bonds formed)

\Delta H=[(B.E_{C\equiv C})+(2\times B.E_{C-H})+(2.5\times B.E_{O=O})]-[(2\times B.E_{C=O})+(2\times B.E_{H-O})]

Given:

\Delta H = heat of combustion = -1259 kJ/mol

B.E_{C-H} = 413 kJ/mol

B.E_{O=O} = 498 kJ/mol

B.E_{O-H} = 467 kJ/mol

B.E_{C=O} = 799 kJ/mol

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

-1259kJ/mol=[(B.E_{C\equiv C})+(2\times 413kJ/mol)+(2.5\times 498kJ/mol)]-[(4\times 799kJ/mol)+(2\times 467kJ/mol)]

B.E_{C\equiv C}=800kJ/mol

Therefore, the bond energy of C\equiv C is 800 kJ/mol.

What sample size (grams) of Na3PO4 (FW 164.00) known to be 50.00% pure should be used to consume exactly 40.00 mL of 0.1000 M HC
Mkey [24]

Answer:

0.109 g.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction:

Na3PO4 + 3HCl --> 3NaCl + H3PO4

Number of moles of HCl = molar concentration × volume

= 0.1 × 0.04

= 0.004 mol.

By stoichiometry, 1 mole of Na3PO4 neutralises 3 moles of HCl. Therefore, number of moles of Na3PO4 = 0.004/3

= 0.0013 mol

Mass of Na3PO4 = molar mass × number of moles

= 0.0013 × 164

= 0.219 g

Since 50% of Na3PO4 was present in the sample. Let 100 g be the total mass of the substance

= 0.219 × 50 g/100 g

= 0.109 g.

The half-reaction occurring at the cathode in the balanced reaction shown below is __________?2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Correct choice are C and D (they are both, the same).

Explanation:

Cathode is the positive(+) electrode where a reduction occurs.

Reduction is the chemical reaction where the oxidation state is reduced.

2Ag(s) + 1/2 O2(g) + 2H+(aq) → 2Ag+(aq) + H2O (l)

A. 2H2O (l) → O2 (g) + 4H+ (aq) + 4e-

B. 2Ag (s) → 2Ag+ (aq) + 2e-

C. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

D. 1/2 O2 (g) + 2H+ (aq) + 2e- → H2O (l)

C or D, are ok. They are the same equation.

Oxygen from ground state reduce the oxidation state from 0 to -2
