A 1.250-g sample of benzoic acid, C7H6O2, was placed in a combustion bomb. The bomb was filled with an excess of oxygen at high

pressure, sealed, and immersed in a pail of water which served as a calorimeter. The heat capacity of the entire apparatus (bomb, pail, thermometer, and water) was found to be 10.134 kJ/K. The oxidation of the benzoic acid was triggered by passing an electric spark through the sample. After complete combustion, the thermometer immersed in the water registered a temperature 3.256 K greater than before the combustion. What is DEcombustion per mole of benzoic acid burned

Answer:

3224 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The combustion of benzoic acid occurs as follows:

C₇H₆O₂ + 13/2O₂ → 7CO₂ + 3H₂O + dE

The change in temperature in the reaction is the change due the energy released, that is:

3.256K * (10.134kJ / K) = 33.00kJ are released when 1.250g reacts

To find the heat released per mole we have to find the moles of benzoic acid:

<em>Moles benzoic acid -Molar mass: 122.12g/mol-:</em>

1.250g * (1mol / 122.12g) = 0.0102 moles

<em />

The dE combustion per mole of benzoic acid is:

33.00kJ / 0.0102moles =

<em>3224 kJ/mol </em>

Suppose that 0.410 mol of methane, CH4(g), is reacted with 0.560 mol of fluorine, F2(g), forming CF4(g) and HF(g) as sole produc
Ber [7]

Answer:

The balanced equation for this reaction will be

                            CH4 + 4F2    →  CF4 + 4HF

We can see that 1 mole of methane requires 4 moles of fluorine but we have 0.41 moles of CH4 and 0.56mole of F2

So using the unitary method we will get that

  • 1 mole of CH4 → 4 mole of 4 mole of fluorine
  • 0.41 mole of methane  →  4*0.41 = 1.64 mole of fluorine for complete reaction

but we have only 0.56 mole of fluorine that means fluorine is the limiting reagent and the product will only be formed by only this amount of fluorine.

  • 4 moles of  fluorine →  1 mole of CF4
  • 0.56 mole →  \frac{1}{4} * 0.56 = 0.14mole of CF4
  • 4 moles of fluorine →  4 moles of HF
  • 0.56 mole of fluorine →  0.56 mole of HF

now to find the heat released we have the formula as

DELTA H = n * Delta H of product - n *delta H of reactant

where n is the moles of the reactant and product.

note: since no information is given about the enthalpies of the species we leave it on general equation also you need to add the product side enthalpy of the species present and similarly on the product side.

When the pressure that a gas exerts on a sealed container changes from 1100 bar to 75.5 bar, the temperature changes from k to 2
Serjik [45]
Gay-Lussac's law gives the relationship between pressure and temperature of gas. For a fixed amount of gas, pressure is directly proportional to temperature at constant volume.
P/T = k
where P - pressure , T - temperature and k - constant
\frac{P1}{T1} =  \frac{P2}{T2}
parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation 
substituting the values in the equation 
\frac{1100 bar}{T}  =  \frac{75.5 bar}{298 K}
T = 4342 K
initial temperature was 4342 K

Consider the following three-step reaction pathway.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

NO \longrightarrow N_2O_2 \longrightarrow N_2O \longrightarrow N2

Explanation:

The intermediates are the products of all the steps of the reaction pathway, with the exception of the last one. So the intermediates will be:

  • N2O2 from the first step
  • N2O from the second step

The list from reactant to final product:

NO \longrightarrow N_2O_2 \longrightarrow N_2O \longrightarrow N2

<em>Note: the water is considered a by-product, given that is not the product of interest in this steps.</em>
