Answer:

XCOCl₂ = 0.25

Explanation:

Let's write the reaction again:

CO(g) + Cl₂(g) -----> COCl₂(g)      Kp = 3.10

With this reaction, we can write the Kp expression:

Kp = PpCOCl₂ / PpCO * PpCl₂

As the pressure are in Torr, we can work these pressure in Atmosphere instead of Torr, and it would be easier cause it would be lower numbers. Remeber that 1 atm is 760 Torr. So Doing this we have:

PpCO = 270 * 1/760 = 0.36 atm

PpCl₂ = 257 / 760 = 0.34 atm

Now, we can write an ICE chart with pressures, so we can know the pressure of COCl₂

         CO(g) + Cl₂(g) -----> COCl₂(g)      Kp = 3.10

I:         0.36     0.34               0

C:          -x          -x                +x

E:        0.36-x   0.34-x           x

Replacing in the Kp expressio:

3.1 = x / (0.36-x)(0.34-x)

Solving for x we have:

3.1 = x / (0.1224 - 0.7x + x²)

3.1(0.1224 - 0.7x + x²) = x

0.3794 - 2.17x + 3.1x² = x

3.1x² - 3.17x + 0.3794 = 0

Now, using the quadratic formula to solve for x, we have:

x = 3.17 ±√(3.17)² - 4*3.1*0.3794 / 2 * 3.1

x = 3.17 ±√10.0489 - 4.7046 / 6.2

x = 3.17 ±√5.3443 / 6.2

x = 3.17 ± 2.3118 / 6.2

x₁ = 0.88

x₂ = 0.14

Using the lowest value of x, (because if we use the highest then the partial pressure of the reactants will give a negative value) we have that the partial pressure of COCl₂ would be 0.14 atm

Now that we have this value, we can calculate the partial pressure at equilibrium of the reactants:

PpCO = 0.36 - 0.14 = 0.22 atm

PpCl₂ = 0.34 - 0.14 = 0.20 atm

Now with these values, we can finally calculate the mole fraction of COCl₂ in equilibrium by using this expression:

XCOCl₂ = PCOCl₂ / Pt

And Pt is the total pressure of all species in reaction so:

Pt = 0.22 + 0.2 + 0.14 = 0.56 atm

Finally, the mole fraction:

XCOCl₂ = 0.14 / 0.56

<h2>XCOCl₂ = 0.25</h2>

ch4aika [34]

We have to solve this question using the stoichiometry of the reaction:

The equation of the reaction is;

2 C12H26(l) + 37 O2(g) -----> 24 CO2(g) + 26 H2O(l) + 15,026 kJ

According to the question;

Number of moles of CO2 released = 21.3 g/44 g/mol = 0.48 moles

From the  stoichiometry of the reaction:

Since;

24 moles of CO2 released 15,026 KJ

0.48 moles of CO2 will release 0.48 * 15,026/24

= 301 KJ of heat.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) 2.541 mol/MJ;

b) 1.124 mol/MJ;

c) 0.4354 mol/MJ;

d) 0.1835 mol/MJ

Explanation:

The enthalpy of formation (ΔH°f) is the enthalpy of a reaction to form a compound by its constituents. For CO₂, ΔH°f = - 393.5 kJ/mol.

The enthalpy of a reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the products (each one multiplied by the number of moles) less the sum of the enthalpy of the reactants (each one multiplied by the number of moles). The ΔH°f for simple substances (with one atom) is 0. The combustion is the reaction between the fuel and the oxygen.

a) The combution reaction is:

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

ΔH°rxn = -393.5 kJ/mol = -393.5x10⁻³ MJ/mol

Number of moles per MJ released: 1/|ΔH°rxn|

n = 1/(393.5x10⁻³) = 2.541 mol/MJ

b) The combustion reaction is:

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

H₂O is in the liquid state because it's at 1 atm and 25ºC.

ΔH°f, H₂O(l) = -285.3 kJ/mol

ΔH°f, O₂(g) = 0

ΔH°f, CH₄(g) = -74.8 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [2*(-285.3 ) + 1*(-393.5)] - [1*(-74.8)]

ΔH°rxn = -889.3 kJ/mol = -889.3x10⁻³ MJ/mol

n = 1/889.3x10⁻³ = 1.124 mol/MJ

c) C₃H₈(g) + 10O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

ΔH°f,C₃H₈(g) = -25.2 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [4*(-285.3) + 3*(-393.5)] - [1*(-25.2)]

ΔH°rxn = -2,296.5 kJ/mol = -2.2965 MJ/mol

n = 1/2.2965 = 0.4354 mol/MJ

d) C₈H₁₈(l) + (25/2)O₂(g) → 8CO₂(g) + 9H₂O(l)

ΔH°f, C₈H₁₈(l) = -250.1 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [9*(-283.5) + 8*(-393.5)] - [1*(-250.1)]

ΔH°rxn = -5,449.4 kJ/mol = -5.4494 MJ/mol

n = 1/5.4494 = 0.1835 mol/MJ

G determine the concentration of an hbr solution if a 45.00 ml aliquot of the solution yields 0.6485 g agbr when added to a solu
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The molecular weight of silver bromide (AgBr) is 187.77 g/mole. The presence of the ions in solution can be shown as- AgBr (insoluble) ⇄Ag^{+} + Br^{-1}.

45.00 mL of the aliquot contains 0.6485 g of AgBr. Thus 1000 mL of the aliquot contains \frac{0.6485}{45}×1000 = 14.411 gm-mole. Thus the solubility product K_{sp}of AgBr = [Ag^{+}]×Br^{-}.

Or, 5.0×10^{-13} = S^{2} (the given value of solubility product of AgBr is 5.0×10^{-13} and the charge of the both ions are same).

Thus S = (5.00×10^{-13})^{1/2} = 7.071×10^{-7} g/mL.

Thus the concentration of Br^{-1} or HBr is 7.071×10^{-7} g/mL.
