12 g of powdered magnesium oxide reacts with nitric acid to
galben [10]

Answer:

80.8 g

Explanation:

First, let's write a balanced equation of this reaction

MgO + 2HNO₃ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + H₂O

Now let's convert grams to moles

We gotta find the weight of MgO

24 + 16 = 40 g/mol

12/40 = 0.3 moles of MgO

We can use this to find out how much Magnesium Nitrate will be formed

0.3 x 1 MgO / 1 Mg(NO₃)₂ = 0.3 moles of Magnesium Nitrate formed

Convert moles to grams

Find the weight of Mg(NO₃)₂ but don't forget that 2 subscript acts as a multiplier of whatever is inside that parenthesis.

24 + 14 x 2 + 16 x 3 x 2 = 148 g/mol

148 x 0.3 = 80.8 g

The change in internal energy for the combustion of 1.0 mol of octane at a pressure of 1.0 atm is -5084.1 kj . f the change in e
TEA [102]

<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

The enthalpy change for converting 1.00 mol of ice at -50.0 ∘c to water at 60.0∘c is ________ kj. the specific heats of ice, wat
guajiro [1.7K]
First, we have to get:

1- The heat required to increase T of ice from -50 to 0 °C:

according to q formula:

q1 = m*C*ΔT

when m is the mass of ice = mol * molar mass

                                             =  1 mol * 18 mol/g

                                            = 18 g

and C is the specific heat capacity of ice = 2.09 J/g-K

and ΔT change in temperature = 0- (-50) = 50°C

by substitution:

∴q1 = 18 g * 2.09 J/g-K *50°C

       = 1881 J = 1.881 KJ

2- the heat required to melt this mass of ice is :

q2 = n*ΔHfus 

when n is the number of moles of ice = 1 mol

and ΔHfus = 6.01 KJ/mol

by substitution:

q2 = 1 mol * 6.01 KJ/mol

     = 6.01 KJ

3- the heat required to increase the water temperature from 0°C to 60 °C is:

q3 = m*C*ΔT

when m is the mass of water = 18 g 

C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g-K

ΔT is the change of Temperature of water = 60°C - 0°C = 60°C

by substitution:

∴q3 = 18 g * 4.18 J/g-K * 60°C

      = 4514 J = 4.514 KJ

∴the total change of enthalpy = q1+q2+q3

                                                  = 1.881 KJ  +6.01 KJ + 4.514 KJ

                                                  = 12.405 KJ
