Answer:

A. The equilibrium will shift towards the right, towards the formation of products

B. The concentration of hydrogen gas will decrease as more of it is used in the formation of products

C. Increasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed will increase the concentration of C2H4, the product of the reaction.

Explanation:

The given reaction is an exothermic reaction as it requires the addition of extra energy of about 52.4KJ in the form of heat for the reaction to proceed towards product formation.

According to L' Chtler principle, when an external constraint is applied to A given system in equilibrium, equilibrium position will shift so as to annul the effect ofnthe constraint imposed on the system.

Therefore, the answers tonthe questions above are given below as follows :

A. The equilibrium will shift towards the right, towards the formation of products in order to remove the effect of the additional heat since the forward reaction is endothermic.

B. The concentration of hydrogen gas will decrease as more of it is used in the formation of products .

C. Increasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed will increase the concentration of C2H4, the product of the reaction as the equilibrium will shift towards the right; formation of products.

Both 1,2−dihydronaphthalene and 1,4−dihydronaphthalene may be selectively hydrogenated to 1,2,3,4−tetrahydronaphthalene. One of

Answer:

1,4-dihydro = 113 kJ·mol⁻¹

1,2-dihydro = 101 kJ·mol⁻¹

Explanation:

In 1,4-dihydronaphthalene, the 2,3-double bond is isolated from the benzene ring.

In 1,2-dihydronaphthalene, the 3,4-double bond is conjugated with the benzene ring.

Thus, 1,2-dihydronaphthalene is partially stabilized by resonance interactions between the ring and the double bond (think, styrene).

1,2-Dihydronaphthalene is at a lower energy level because of this stabilization.

The heat of hydrogenation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene is therefore less than that of the 1,4-isomer when each is hydrogenated to the common product, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene.
