nydimaria [60]

Hey there!

Sulphur is the element which has 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

WhereasCalcium,Neon have 2 and chlorine has 7.

Hope this explanation helps you :)
Have a good day :)

Use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane. Average bond energies in kJ/mol C-C 347, C

ivanzaharov [21]

The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane 2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O calculated from the average bond energies of the compounds is -2860 kJ/mol.

The reaction is:

2CH₃CH₃ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O (1)

The enthalpy of reaction (1) is given by:

$\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}$ (2)

Where:

r: is for reactants

p: is for products

The bonds of the compounds of reaction (1) are:

2CH₃CH₃: 2 moles of 6 C-H bonds + 2 moles of 1 C-C bond

7O₂: 7 moles of 1 O=O bond

4CO₂: 4 moles of 2 C=O bonds

6H₂O: 6 moles of 2 H-O bonds

Hence, the enthalpy of reaction (1) is (eq 2):

$\Delta H = \Delta H_{r} - \Delta H_{p}$

$\Delta H = 2*\Delta H_{CH_{3}CH_{3}} + 7\Delta H_{O_{2}} - (4*\Delta H_{CO_{2}} + 6*\Delta H_{H_{2}O})$

$\Delta H = 2*(6*\Delta H_{C-H} + \Delta H_{C-C}) + 7\Delta H_{O=O} - (4*2*\Delta H_{C=O} + 6*2*\Delta H_{H-O})$

$\Delta H = [2*(6*413 + 347) + 7*498 - (4*2*799 + 6*2*467)] kJ/mol$

$\Delta H = -2860 kJ/mol$

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of ethane is -2860 kJ/mol.

I hope it helps you!

3.8 liters of sulfur vapor, S8(g), at 921.4°C and 5.87 atm is burned in excess pure oxygen gas to give sulfur dioxide gas measur

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

116.5 g of SO₂ are formed

Explanation:

The reaction is:

S₈(g) + 8O₂(g) → 8SO₂ (g)

Let's identify the moles of sulfur vapor, by the Ideal Gases Law

We convert the 921.4°C to Absolute T° → 921.4°C + 273 = 1194.4 K

5.87 atm . 3.8L = n . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 1194.4K

(5.87 atm . 3.8L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 1194.4K) = n → 0.228 moles of S₈

Ratio is 1:8, 1 mol of sulfur vapor can produce 8 moles of dioxide

Then, 0.228 moles of S₈ must produce (0.228 . 8) /1 = 1.82 moles

We convert the moles to g → 1.82 moles . 64.06 g /1mol = 116.5 g

Ammonia can be produced via the chemicalreaction

otez555 [7]

Answer:

3)The reaction is not at equilibrium and willproceed to the right.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at particular point in the time.

It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.

Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.

Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.

Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.

Given that:

Q = $3.56\times 10^{-4}$

K = $6.02\times 10^{-2}$

Since, Q < K , reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to right, in forward direction.
