Answer: Energy of reactants = 30, Energy of products = 10
Exothermic
Activation energy for forward reaction is 10.
Explanation:
Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and
for the reaction comes out to be negative.
Energy of reactants = 30
Energy of products = 10
Thus as energy of the product < energy of the reactant, the reaction is exothermic.
Activation energy
is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.
for forward reaction is (40-30) = 10.
First, we need the no.of moles of O2 = mass/molar mass of O2
= 55 g / 32 g/mol
= 1.72 mol
from the balanced equation of the reaction:
2H2 (g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between O2: H2O = 1: 2
So we can get the no.of moles of H2O = 2 * moles of O2
= 2 * 1.72 mol
= 3.44 mol
So by substitution by this value in ideal gas formula:
PV = nRT
when P = 12.4 atm & n H2O = 3.44 mol & R= 0.0821 & T = 85 + 273=358K
12.4 atm *V = 3.44 * 0.0821 * 358 = 8.15 L
∴ V ≈ 8.2 L
Answer:
286.55K
