The mass of gas A is 11.56. i got this answer by 0.68 multiplied by 17. because in this problem the key word is times.
Answer:
ΔH rxn = -1010 kJ/molC₂H₂
Explanation:
To obtain the enthalpy change for a reaction from bond energies what we do is to make an inventory of the bonds broken and formed for the balanced chemical reaction:
C₂H₂ + 5/2O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂ + H₂O
Bond Broken Bonds Formed
2 C-H + 1 C≡C + 5/2 O=O 4C=O + 2 H-O
Enthalpy bonds broken:
2 mol (456 kJ/mol)+ 1 mol (962 kJ/mol) + 5/2 mol (499 kJ/mol) = 3121.5 kJ
Enthalpy bond formed:
4 mol (802 kJ/mol) + 2 mol (462 kJ/mol) = 4132.0 kJ
ΔH rxn = H broken - H formed = 3121.5 kJ - 4132.0 kJ = - 1010 kJ (per mol C₂H₂ )
B) 40%
The balanced equation indicates that for every 3 moles of H2 used, 2 moles of NH3 will be produced. So the reaction if it had 100% yield would produce (2.00 / 3) * 2 = 1.333333333 moles of NH3. But only 0.54 moles were produced. So the percent yield is 0.54 / 1.3333 = 0.405 = 40.5%. This is a close enough match to option "b" to be considered correct.
Empirical evidence is information acquired by observation or experimentation
