Answer:

Crystal field splitting is the difference in energy between d orbitals of ligands. Crystal field splitting number is denoted by the capital Greek letter Δ. Crystal field splitting explains the difference in color between two similar metal-ligand complexes.

Answer : The enthalpy of the given reaction will be, -1048.6 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.

The main reaction is:

$XCl_4(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow XO_2(s)+4HCl(g)$ $\Delta H=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reactions are:

(1) $H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(g)$ $\Delta H_1=-241.8kJ$

(2) $X(s)+2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow XCl_4(s)$ $\Delta H_2=+461.9kJ$

(3) $\frac{1}{2}H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}Cl_2(g)\rightarrow HCl(g)$ $\Delta H_3=-92.3kJ$

(4) $X(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow XO_2(s)$ $\Delta H_4=-789.1kJ$

(5) $H_2O(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)$ $\Delta H_5=-44.0kJ$

Now reversing reaction 2, multiplying reaction 3 by 4, reversing reaction 1 and multiplying by 2, reversing reaction 5 and multiplying by 2 and then adding all the equations, we get :

(1) $2H_2O(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)$ $\Delta H_1=2\times 241.8kJ=483.6kJ$

(2) $XCl_4(s)\rightarrow X(s)+2Cl_2(g)$ $\Delta H_2=-461.9kJ$

(3) $2H_2(g)+2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 4HCl(g)$ $\Delta H_3=4\times -92.3kJ=-369.2kJ$

(4) $X(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow XO_2(s)$ $\Delta H_4=-789.1kJ$

(5) $2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)$ $\Delta H_5=2\times 44.0kJ=88.0kJ$

The expression for enthalpy of main reaction will be:

$\Delta H=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3+\Delta H_4+\Delta H_5$

$\Delta H=(483.6)+(-461.9)+(-369.2)+(-789.1)+(88.0)$

$\Delta H=-1048.6kJ$

Therefore, the enthalpy of the given reaction will be, -1048.6 kJ

Butane, C4H10, reacts with oxygen, O2, to form water, H2O, and carbon dioxide, CO2, as shown in the following chemical equation:

Wittaler [7]

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2C4H10(g)+13O2(g)->10H2O(g)+8CO2(g)

Calculate the mass of water produced when 1.77 grams of butane reacts with excessive oxygen?
1.77 g C4H10 (1 mol C4H10/58.14 g C4H10) (10 mol H2O / 2 mol C4H10) ( 1.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O ) = 0.15 g H2O

Calculate the mass of butane needed to produce 71.6 of carbon dioxide.
71.6 g CO2 (1 mol CO2/ 44.01 g CO2) ( 2 mol C4H10 / 8 mol CO2 ) (58.14 g C4H10 / 1 mol C4H10 ) = 23.65 g C4H10
