Answer: check for a change in total mass during a reaction.

According to the law of conservation of mass during a chemical change the total mass of the products remains equal to the total mass of the reactants: there is not change in the total mass.

During nuclear reactions the mass can change due to the huge release of energy which proceeds from mass change, as per the famous equation ΔE =Δm. c^2.

Sulfur dioxide, SO2(g), can react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide, SO3(g), by the following reaction
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The heat produced is -15,1kJ

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2SO₂+O₂ → 2SO₃

The enthalpy of reaction is:

ΔHr = 2ΔHf SO₃ - 2ΔHf SO₂

As ΔHf SO₃ = -395,7kJ and ΔHf SO₂ = -296,8kJ

<em>ΔHr = -197,8kJ</em>

Using n=PV/RT, the moles of reaction are:

n = \frac{1,00atm*3,75L}{0,082atmL/molK*298,15K} = <em>0,153 moles of reaction</em>

As 2 moles of reaction produce -197,8kJ of heat, 0,153moles produce:

0,153mol×\frac{-197,8kJ}{2mol} = <em>-15,1kJ</em>

<em></em>
