Hydrogenation reactions, in which H2 and an "unsaturated" organic compound combine, are used in the food, fuel, and polymer indu

stries. In the simplest case, ethene (C2H4) and H2 form ethane (C2H6).
(a) If 138 kJ is given off per mole of C2H4 reacting, how much heat (in kJ) is released when 15.9 kg of C2H6 forms? Enter a positive number since released implies a negative number. Enter to 0 decimal places.

3 0

Answer:

73140 kJ.

Explanation:

Equation of the hydrogenation reaction:

C2H4 + H2 --> C2H6

Molar mass = (2*12) + (6*1)

= 30 g/mol

Mass of C2H4 = 15.9 kg

= 15900 g

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 15900/30

= 530 mol of C2H6

By stoichiometry, 1 mole of C2H4 is hydrogenated to give 1 mole of C2H6

Number of moles of C2H4 = 530 mole

Q = n * q

= 530 * 138 kJ

= 73140 kJ.

The shape of the BF3 molecule is best described as
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The shape of the BF3 molecule is best described as trigonal planar.

Explanation:

The Lewis Structure for BF3 is like this:

 _            _

| F |        | F |

   \          /

        B

         |

      | F |

       ---

It forms three angles of 120° each. The bonds are in the same planar that's why it is trigonal planar and they are exactly the same.

Boron and Fluorine have 3 covalent bonds, produced by electronic promotion that enables the 2py and 2pz orbitals, leaving an electron to pair in the 2px. So boron will have 3 possible electrons to pair in 2s1, 2px and 2py, remember that electronic configuration for B is 1s2, 2s2, 2p1

By hybridization between the orbitals 2s2 and 2p1, the electrons of F, can joined to make the covalent bond. The new B configuration is 1s2, 2s1, 2px1, 2py1 (these last three, hybrid orbitals)
