Research is being carried out on cellulose as a source of chemicals for the production of fibers, coatings, and plastics. Cellul

ose consists of long chains of glucose molecules (C6H12O6), so for the purposes of modeling the reaction we can consider the conversion of glucose to formaldehyde (H2CO).
1. Calculate the heat of reaction for the conversion of 1 mole of glucose into formaldehyde, given the following thermochemical data:
H2CO(g) + O2(g) -------> CO2(g) + H2O(g) ΔH °comb = - 572.9 KJ/mol
6 C(s) + 6 H2(g) + 3 O2(g) -------> C6H12O6(s) ΔH ° f = - 1274.4 KJ/mol
C(s) + O2(g) ---------> CO2(g) ΔH ° f = - 393.5 KJ/mol
H2(g) + 1 / 2 O2(g) -----------> H2O(g) ΔH ° f = - 285.8 KJ/mol
C6H12O6(s) ---------> 6 H2CO(g) ΔH ° rxn = ?

Answer:

+ 636 KJ

Explanation:

We want to arrive to the equation

C6H12O6(s) ---------> 6 H2CO(g) ΔH ° rxn = ?

by manipulating algebraically the first four  given equations.

We notice the first one has our product H2CO(g) as a reactant. This indicates we must take the inverse of that equation. Also we need 6 mol of H2CO(g), thus it also needs to be multiplied by 6

6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g)  ------->6H2CO(g) + 6O2(g)  ΔH °comb = + 572.9 KJ/x 6

Now we want C6H12O6(s) as a reactant and it  is a product in the second one, therefore lets reverse it

C6H12O6(s)  -------> 6 C(s) + 6 H2(g) + 3 O2(g)   ΔH ° f = + 1274.4 KJ/mol

Now if take the third equation and multiply it by six we will cancel the C(s) with the above equation

6 C(s) + 6O2(g) ---------> 6 CO2(g) ΔH ° f = - 393.5 KJ/mol x 6

Finally by multiplying the last equation by 6 and adding all the equations we will arrive at our desired one

6 H2(g) + 3 O2(g) -----------> 6H2O(g) ΔH ° f = - 285.8 KJ/mol x 6

then lets add them to get ΔH ° rxn:

  6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g)  ------->6H2CO(g) + 6O2(g)  ΔH °comb = + 3437.4 KJ

+ C6H12O6(s)  -------> 6 C(s) + 6 H2(g) + 3 O2(g)      ΔH ° f = + 1274.4 KJ

+ 6C(s) + 6O2(g) ---------> 6 CO2(g)                            ΔH ° f = - 2361.0 KJ

+6 H2(g) + 3 O2(g) -----------> 6H2O(g)                      ΔHº f  = - 1714.8 KJ

<u>                                                                                                                            </u>

C6H12O6(s) ---------> 6 H2CO(g)  

ΔH ° rxn =  3437.4 + 1274.4 - 2361.0 - 1714.8 =  636 KJ

Imagine two solutions with the same concentration and the same boiling point, but one has benzene as the solvent and the other h
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Complete question:

Imagine two solutions with the same concentration and the same boiling point, but one has benzene as the solvent and the other has carbon tetrachloride as the solvent. Determine that molal concentration, m (or b), and boiling point, Tb.

benzene boiling point=80.1 Kb=2.53

carbon tetrachloride boiling point=76.8 Kb=5.03

Answer:

m = 1.32 mol/kg

Boiling point: 83.4°C

Explanation:

When a nonvolatile solute is added to a pure solvent, the boiling point of the solvent increases, a phenomenon called ebullioscopy. This happens because of the interactions between the solute and the solvent. The temperature variation (new boiling point - normal boiling point) can be calculated by:

ΔT = m*Kb*i

Where m is the molal concentration (moles o solute/mass of solvent in kg), Kb is the ebullioscopy constant of the solvent, and i is the van't Hoff factor, which indicates how much of the solute dissociates. Let's assume that i is equal in both solvents and equal to 1 (the solvent dissociates completely)

Calling the new boiling point as Tb, for benzene:

Tb - 80.1 = m*2.53*1

Tb = 2.53m + 80.1

For carbon tetrachloride:

Tb - 76.8 = m*5.03*1

Tb = 5.03m + 76.8

Because Tb and m are equal for both:

5.03m + 76.8 = 2.53m + 80.1

2.5m = 3.3

m = 1.32 mol/kg

So, substituting m in any of the equations (choosing the first):

Tb = 2.53 * 1.32 + 80.1

Tb = 83.4°C
