Find the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene, C2H4(g), given the following data: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) --> 2CO2(g) + 2 H2O
Brums [2.3K]

Answer : The standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The formation reaction of C_2H_4 will be,

2C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)    \Delta H_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)     \Delta H_1=-1411kJ

(2) C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=-393.5kJ

(3) H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=-285.8kJ

Now we will reverse the reaction 1, multiply reaction 2 and 3 by 2 then adding all the equation, we get :

(1) 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)     \Delta H_1=+1411kJ

(2) 2C(s)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=2\times (-393.5kJ)=-787kJ

(3) 2H_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=2\times (-285.8kJ)=-571.6kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of C_2H_4 will be,

\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3

\Delta H=(+1411kJ)+(-787kJ)+(-571.6kJ)

\Delta H=52.4kJ

Therefore, the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

A sample of gas initially has a volume of 2.25 L at 350 K and a pressure of 1.75 atm. What will be sample pressure if the volume
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

8.44 atm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2.25 L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 350 K

Initial pressure (P₁) = 1.75 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 1 L

Final temperature (T₂) = 750 K

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure of the gas can be obtained as illustrated below:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

1.75 × 2.25 / 350 = P₂ × 1 / 750

3.9375 / 350 = P₂ / 750

Cross multiply

350 × P₂ = 3.9375 × 750

350 × P₂ = 2953.125

Divide both side by 350

P₂ = 2953.125 / 350

P₂ = 8.44 atm

Thus, the final pressure of the gas is 8.44 atm.

As an alternative energy source, nuclear energy is more harmful to the environment than a coal-fired power plant because it prod
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is coal-fired power plants that produce mercury, air pollution, and carbon dioxide.  

However, nuclear energy produces radioactive waste that must be stored for many years before it can be safely disposed.

What type of reactive intermediate is formed in the reaction of an alkene with aqueous acid to give an alcohol?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The intermediate is carbocation.

Explanation:

The reaction of alkene with an acid to give alcohol is an electrophilic addition reaction.

In electrophilic reaction, the alkene is being attacked by an alkene.

in case of aqueous acid reaction with alkene , the electrophile is [H⁺].

When the proton attacks the alkene it generates carbocation.

The carbocation generated is formed based on stability of carbocation.

The mechanism is shown in the figure.
