Answer:
e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.
Explanation:
- Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
- An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
- <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.
Answer:
2Al+ 6HNO3 ---- 3H2 + 2Al(NO3)3
Explanation:
Put coefficient a,b,c, and d for calculation:
a Al + b HNO3 = c H2 + d Al(NO3)3
for Al: a = d
for H: b = 2c
for N: b = 3d
for O: 3b = 9d
Suppose a=1, then d=1, b=3, c=3/2
multiply 2 to make all natural number, a=2, then b=6, c=3, d=2
CnH2n since the equivalent unsaturation is equal with 1
Yes a compound a thing that is composed of two or more separate elements; a mixture.
Answer:
the heat of formation of isopropyl alcohol is -317.82 kJ/mol
Explanation:
The heat of combustion of isopropyl alcohol is given as follows;
C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g)
The heat of combustion of CO₂ and H₂O are given as follows
C (s) + O₂ (g) → CO₂(g) = −393.50 kJ
H₂ (g) + 1/2·O₂(g) → H₂O (l) = −285.83 kJ
Therefore we have
3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g) → C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ which we can write as
3C (s) + 3O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g) = −393.50 kJ × 3 =
4H₂ (g) + 2·O₂(g) → 4H₂O (l) = −285.83 kJ × 4
3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O (g) → C₃H₇OH (l) +(9/2)O₂ = +2006 kJ/mol
-1180.5 - 1143.32 +2006 = -317.82 kJ/mol
Therefore, the heat of formation of isopropyl alcohol = -317.82 kJ/mol.
