Write a balanced equation for the combustion of C7H16(l) (heptane) -- i.e. its reaction with O2(g) forming the products CO2(g) a

nd H2O(l). Given the following standard heats of formation: ΔHf° of CO2(g) is -393.5 kJ/mol ΔHf° of H2O(l) is -286 kJ/mol ΔHf° of C7H16(l) is -187.8 kJ/mol What is the standard heat of reaction (ΔH°) for the combustion reaction of C7H16(l)? -4854.7 kJ Calculate the difference, ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) for the combustion reaction of 1 mole of heptane. (Assume standard state conditions and 298 K for all reactants and products.)

Answer:

<u>The standard enthalpy of reaction = -4854.7kJ</u>

<u>The difference: </u>ΔH-ΔE = Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = <u>9910.288 J ≈ 9.91 kJ</u>    

Explanation:

<u>The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of heptane</u>:

C₇H₁₆ (l) + 11 O₂ (g) → 7 CO₂ (g) + 8 H₂O (l)

Given: The standard enthalpy of formation (\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }) for: C₇H₁₆ (l) = -187.8 kJ/mol, O₂ (g) = 0 kJ/mol, CO₂ (g) = -393.5 kJ/mol, H₂O (l) = -286 kJ/mol

<u>To calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H _{r}^{\circ }) can be calculated by the Hess's law</u>:

\Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [\sum \nu \cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(products)  \right ] - \left [\sum \nu\cdot\Delta H _{f}^{\circ }(reactants)  \right ]

Here, \nu is the stoichiometric coefficient

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } =

\left [ 7\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (CO_{2}\right )+ 8\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (H_{2}O \right )\right ]

- \left [1\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (C_{7}H_{16}\right ) +11\times \Delta H _{f}^{\circ }\left (O_{2} \right ) \right ]

=\left [ 7\times \left (-393.5 kJ/mol \right )+ 8\times \left (-286 kJ/mol \right )\right ]

-\left [1\times \left (-187.8 kJ/mol \right ) +11\times \left (0 kJ/mol \right ) \right ]

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ \left (-2754.5 \right )+ \left (-2288 \right )\right ]\left -[ \left (-187.8 \right ) +\left (0 \right )\right ]

⇒ \Delta H _{r}^{\circ } = \left [ -5042.5 ]\left -[ -187.8] = \left ( -4854.7kJ \right )

<u>To calculate the difference: </u>ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV)

We use the ideal gas equation: P.V = n.R.T

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T

Given: Temperature:T = 298K, R = 8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹

Δn = number of moles of gaseous products - number of moles of gaseous reactants = (7)- (11) = (-4)

⇒ ΔH-ΔE=Δ(PV) = Δn.R.T = (-4 mol) × (8.314 J⋅K⁻¹⋅mol⁻¹) × (298K) = <u>9910.288 J = 9.91 kJ</u>                              (∵ 1 kJ = 1000J )

Does the size of an object<br> affect its rate of fall?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object equals the gravitational acceleration. The mass, size, and shape of the object are not a factor in describing the motion of the object. So all objects, regardless of size or shape or weight, free fall with the same acceleration

7. Calculate the amount of energy required heat 100.g to <br> H2O(s) changes to H2O(l) at 0°C
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

33300J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ice  = 100g

Unknown:

Amount of energy = ?

Solution:

This is a phase change process from solid to liquid. In this case, the latent heat of melting of ice is 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg.

 So;

            H  = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of melting ice

  Now, insert the parameters and solve;

            H = mL

 mass from gram to kilogram;

            100g gives 0.1kg

  H = 0.1 x 3.33 x 10⁵ = 33300J
