Answer:
CH3F
Explanation:
because if drawn out its is asymmetric
Answer:
a. Minimum 1.70 V
b. There is no maximum.
Explanation:
We can solve this question by remembering that the cell potential is given by the formula
ε⁰ cell = ε⁰ reduction - ε⁰ oxidation
Now the problem states the cell must provide at least 0.9 V and that the reduction potential of the oxidized species 0.80 V, thus
ε⁰ reduction - ε⁰ oxidation ≥ ε⁰ cell
Since ε⁰ oxidation is by definition the negative of ε⁰ reduction , we have
ε⁰ reduction - ( 0.80 V ) ≥ 0.90 V
⇒ ε⁰ reduction ≥ 1.70 V
Therefore,
(a) The minimum standard reduction potential is 1.70 V
(b) There is no maximum standard reduction potential since it is stated in the question that we want to have a cell that provides at leat 0.9 V
Answer: C. ethanol
The enthalpy of combustion is the amount of heat produced when one mole of ethanol undergoes complete combustion at 25 ° C and 1 atmosphere pressure, yielding products also at 25 ° C and 1 atm.
<u>The enthalpy of combustion of the unknown compound is</u>
ΔH = - 320 kJ / 0.25 mol = - 1280 kJ / mol
<u>To choose a probable compound according to this combustion enthalpy, we must evaluate the deviation in relation to the values reported in the literature for the three probable compounds</u> (methane, ethylene and ethanol). The deviation (e%) will be calculated according to the following equation,
e% = ( | ΔHx - ΔH | / ΔHx ) x 100%
where ΔHx is the enthalpy of combustion of the probable compound.
The following table shows the combustion enthalpies of the probable compounds and their deviation in relation to the enthalpy of ΔH = - 1280 kJ / mol
Compound Enthalpy of combustion (kJ/mol) Deviation
Methane - 890.7 43.8%
Ehylene -1411.2 9.3%
Ethanol -1368.6 6.5%
According to the previous table, we can say that the most probable compound is ethanol, since it has the smallest deviation in relation to the experimental enthalpy value of combustion.
1 and 5 are definitely significant. The zeros might not be significant .
