The activation energy for the reaction no2(g)+co(g)⟶no(g)+co2(g) is ea = 375 kj/mol and the change in enthalpy for the reaction

is δh = -225 kj/mol . what is the activation energy for the reverse reaction?

Answer is: 600 kJ/mol.<span>
Chemical reaction: </span>NO₂(g) + CO(g) ⟶ NO(g) + CO₂(g).

<span> Ea(forward) = 375 kJ/mol.
Ea(reverse) = ? kJ/mol.
ΔH(reaction) = -225 kJ/mol; this is exothermic reaction.
The enthalpy change of reaction is the change in the energy of the reactants to the products.
ΔH(reaction) = Ea(forward) - Ea(reverse).
-225 kJ/mol = 375 kJ/mol - </span>Ea(reverse).
Ea(reverse)<span> = 600 kJ/mol.</span>

How do you solve stoichiometry problems
nataly862011 [7]
Ok so the way I do it is as simple as possible.
Firstly look at the reactants and products ( there can be one reactant and one product or more ) you will usually be given the moles of the reactant or products, if you are given grams you can convert into moles by this convertion ( grams/R.M.M ) where R.M.M is the relative atomic mass of your substance ( the mass number of all of the elements in your substance).

Ok when you have moles now look at the ratio between the products and reactants. Usually you will won't know the moles of one substance therefore you will be asked to find moles or mass of that substance.

For example:

When 16 grams of oxygen and 1 gram of hydrogen gas react to produce water. Find the number of grams of water being produced.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
16g      2g          xg

Here we're told the mass of the reactants. In stoichiometry we need to work with moles therefore you need to calculate moles of the reactants.
Firstly find the R.M.M of each reactant.
R.M.M of O2 is 16+16=32 since it's diatomic we add atomic masses of two oxygen atoms.
R.M.M of H2 is 1+1=2, it's also diatomic. (Diatomic two atoms of the same element are joined together). (Ignore the number 2 in front of H2, this number shows us the ratio relationship between reactans or products, i.e when we balance an equation.)

Ok so now find moles:

We have 16 grams of O2
16/R.M.M
16/32 = 0.5 moles

We have 2 grams of H2
1/R.M.M
2/2 = 1 mole
Now back to the equation.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
0.5 moles 1mole xmoles                  (it's xmoles because we don't know                                                               molarity of water that's what we have                                                           find firstly in order to find grams.)
Now look at the ratio between any reactant and product i.e you can choose which reactant to compare to the product, it doesn't make a different ( I will do two or you can do two at the same time)

1st method:
Look at the ratio between O2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 1:2 therefore for every 0.5 moles of O2 you get 1 mole of H2O.
1:2
0.5 : x
0.5*2 = 1

2nd method;
Look at the ratio betweem H2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 2:2 or 1:1. We have 1 mole of H2 there we must have 1 mole of H2O. We see this is true as both methods give us 1 mole of H2O.

3rd method ( combined):
Look at the ratio between O2, H2 and H2O.
We see that the ratio is 1:2:2
So we have 0.5:1:x
If we multiply 0.5 *2 it equals 1 mole
If we multiply 1*1 we get 1 moles.
Any method is correct and it's up to you to find a comfortable way.
We're not finished in the question we are asked for the mass of water.
So just multiply the number of moles (1mole) by R.M.M of H2O.
1 * R.M.M
R.M.M of H2O = 1+1+16=18
1*18= 18 grams.
And you're finished.

I am sorry if this is so long I want you to understand as much as possible.
In stoichiometry you can also be asked about the empirical formula of a substance. I can show you how do it. If you have any question just tell me.
Hope this helps :).

Compute the value of the molar heat capacity at constant volume, CVCV, for CO2CO2 on the assumption that there is no vibrational
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molar heat capacity at constant volume Cv  of a gas = n x .5 R where n is degree of freedom of the gas molecules

CO₂ is a linear molecule , so number of degree of freedom =  3 + 2 = 5

3 is translational and 2 is rotational degree of freedom . There is no vibrational degree of freedom given .

So Cv = 5 / 2 R

= 2.5 R .

An acid and base will combine to form a new substance with new properties in a
garri49 [273]

Answer:

A salt

Explanation:

When an acid and a base are placed together, they react to neutralize the acid and base properties, producing a salt. The H(+) cation of the acid combines with the OH(-) anion of the base to form water. The compound formed by the cation of the base and the anion of the acid is called a salt
