The two half-reactions are...
Ag→Ag+
and...
NO3→NO
Let's start by balancing the first half-reaction...
Ag→Ag+
The amounts are already balanced; 1:1. The oxygens are balanced. So all that's left is to balance the charge...
Ag→Ag++e−
Now let's do the other equation... Amounts of nitrogen are balanced, so we first need to balance the oxygens...
NO3→NO
4H++NO3→NO+2H2O
Next, we need to balance charge...
4e−+4H++NO3→NO+2H2O
Now let's go ahead and rewrite each half-reaction after being balanced by themselves...
Ag→Ag++e−
4e−+4H++NO3→NO+2H2O
Now we need to multiply by some factor to get the electrons to cancel out. In this case, that factor is 4, which needs to be applied to the top half-reaction...
4(Ag→Ag++e−)=4Ag→4Ag++4e−
Then we combine this half-reaction with the second one above to get...
4Ag+4H++NO3→4Ag++NO+2H2O
6 . 2 in its inner shell & the remaining 6 in its outer shell.
Make sure the equation is always balanced first. (It is balanced for this question already) 6.022 x 10^23 is Avogadro’s number. In one mole of anything there is always 6.022 x 10^23 molecules, formula units, atoms. For one mol of an element/ compound use molar mass (grams).
Multiply everything on the top = 8.61x10^47
Multiple everything on bottom= 1.20x10^24
Divide top and bottom = 7.15x10^23
Answer: 7.15x10^23 mol SO2
<u>Given:</u>
Change in internal energy = ΔU = -5084.1 kJ
Change in enthalpy = ΔH = -5074.3 kJ
<u>To determine:</u>
The work done, W
<u>Explanation:</u>
Based on the first law of thermodynamics,
ΔH = ΔU + PΔV
the work done by a gas is given as:
W = -PΔV
Therefore:
ΔH = ΔU - W
W = ΔU-ΔH = -5084.1 -(-5074.3) = -9.8 kJ
Ans: Work done is -9.8 kJ
