Problem PageQuestion Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume
IgorC [24]

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm  (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K=

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{1atm\times 3.16L}{0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.141moles

CH_4+4Cl_2\rightarrow 4HCl+CCl_4

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = \frac{1}{4}\times 0.141=0.0352 moles of carbon tetrachloride

volume of carbon tetrachloride =moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=0.0352mol\times 22.4L/mol=0.788L

Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

2NH4Cl(s)+Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O(s)→2NH3(aq)+BaCl2(aq)+10H2O(l) The ΔH for this reaction is 54.8 kJ . How much energy would be absorbed if
irakobra [83]
1) Chemical equation

<span>2NH4Cl(s)+Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O(s)→2NH3(aq)+BaCl2(aq)+10H2O(l)

2) Stoichiometric ratios

2 mol NH4Cl(s) : 54.8 KJ

3) Convert 24.7 g of NH4Cl into number of moles, using the molar mass

molar mass of NH4Cl = 14 g/mol + 4*1 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 53.5 g/mol

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

number of moles = 24.7 g / 53.5 g/mol = 0.462 moles

4) Use proportions:

2 moles NH4Cl / 54.8 kJ = 0.462 moles / x

=> x = 0.462 moles * 54.8 kJ / 2 moles = 12.7 kJ

Answer: 12.7 kJ
