Answer:

138.96kJ is the maximum electrical work

Explanation:

The maximum electrical work that can be obtained from a cell is obtained from the equation:

W = -nFE

<em>Where W is work in Joules,</em>

<em>n are moles of electrons = 2mol e- because half-reaction of Zn is:</em>

Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

F is faraday constant = 96500Coulombs/mol

E is cell potential = 0.72V

Replacing:

W = -2mol*96500Coulombs/mol*0.72V

W = - 138960J =

<h3>138.96kJ is the maximum electrical work</h3>

A chemist needs 0.550 mol selenium for a reaction. What mass of selenium should a chemist use?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The chemist would require to use 43.43 grams.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to know<u> how much do 0.550 moles of selenium weigh</u>. To do that we use selenium's<em> molar mass </em>and multiply it by the given number of moles:

  • 0.550 mol * 78.96 g/mol = 43.43 g

The chemist would require to use 43.43 grams.

Butane (C4 H10(g), mc031-1.jpgHf = –125.6 kJ/mol) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 , mc031-2.jpgHf = –393.5 kJ/
ankoles [38]

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane is:

2C_{4}H_{10}(g) +13 O_{2}(g)-->8CO_{2}(g)+10H_{2}O(g)

ΔH_{reaction}^{0} = Σn_{products}ΔH_{f}^{0}_{(products)}-Σn_{reactants}ΔH_{f}^{0}_{(reactants)}

                         = [{8*(-393.5kJ/mol)}+{10*(-241.82kJ/mol)}]-[{2*(-125.6kJ/mol)}+13*(0 kJ/mol)}]=[-3148kJ/mol+(-2418.2kJ/mol)]-[(-251.2kJ/mol)+0]

                      = -5315 kJ/mol

Calculating the enthalpy of combustion per mole of butane:

1mol C_{4}H_{10}*( \frac{-5315kJ}{2mol C_{4}H_{10} })=-2657.5 \frac{kJ}{molC_{4}H_{10}}

Therefore the heat of combustion per one mole butane is -2657.5 kJ/mol

Correct answer: -2657.5 kJ/mol
