Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between solid nickel(II)(II) oxide and carbon monoxide gas that produces solid nickel

velikii [3]

Answer: A balanced equation for the given reaction is $NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g)$ .

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g)$

Number of atoms on the reactant side is as follows.

O = 2
C = 1

Number of atoms on the product side is as follows.

Ni = 1
O = 2
C = 1

Since number of atoms on both the reactant and product sides are equal. Hence, the reaction equation is balanced.

Thus, we can conclude that a balanced equation for the given reaction is $NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g)$ .

For this question, the "entropy term" refers to "-TΔS". Addition reactions are generally favorable at low temperatures because _

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Lowering the temperature typically reduces the significance of the decrease in entropy. That makes the Gibbs Free energy of the reaction more negative. As a result, the reaction becomes more favorable overall.

Explanation:

In an addition reaction there's a decrease in the number of particles. Consider the hydrogenation of ethene as an example.

$\rm H_2C\text{=}CH_2\; (g) + H_2\; (g) \stackrel{\text{Ni}^\ast}{\to} H_3C\text{-}CH_3\; (g)$ .

When $\rm H_2$ is added to $\rm H_2C\text{=}CH_2$ (ethene) under heat and with the presence of a catalyst, $\rm H_3C\text{-}CH3$ (ethane) would be produced.

Note that on the left-hand side of the equation, there are two gaseous molecules. However, on the right-hand side there's only one gaseous molecule. That's a significant decrease in entropy. In other words, $\Delta S < 0$ .

The equation for the change in Gibbs Free Energy for a particular reaction is:

$\Delta G = \Delta H + (\underbrace{- T \, \Delta S}_{\text{entropy}\atop \text{term}})$ .

For a particular reaction, the more negative $\Delta G$ is, the more spontaneous ("favorable") the reaction would be.

Since typically $\Delta S < 0$ for addition reactions, the "entropy term" of it would be positive. That's not very helpful if the reaction needs to be favorable.

$T$ (absolute temperature) is always nonnegative. However, lowering the temperature could help bring the value of
