aleksley [76]

Answer: The amount of heat produced by the reaction is -21.36 kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles.

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

$\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f_{(reactant)}]$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H_f_{(O_2(g))})]$

We are given:

$\Delta H_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-296.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(SO_3(g))}=-395.7kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times (-395.7))]-[(2\times (-296.8))+(1\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-197.8kJ/mol$

To calculate the number of moles, we use ideal gas equation, which is:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 1.00 bar

V = Volume of the gas = 2.67 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the mixture = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.00bar\times 2.67L=n\times 0.0831\text{ L. bar }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{1\times 2.67}{0.0831\times 298}=0.108mol$

To calculate the heat released of the reaction, we use the equation:

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

q = amount of heat released = ?

n = number of moles = 0.108 moles

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ = enthalpy change of the reaction = -197.8 kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$-197.8kJ/mol=\frac{q}{0.108mol}\\\\q=(-197.8kJ/mol\times 0.108mol)=-21.36kJ$

Hence, the amount of heat produced by the reaction is -21.36 kJ

Potassium has four energy levels. how many energy levels do you predict calcium, iron, nickel, and zinc will have? answer

tangare [24]

This task can be easily done once we have the periodic table. From the periodic table, it can be seen that potassium is in the fourth row. Thus, it has four energy levels. If we are to use the same principle as that stated above, the number of energy levels for each are as follow:

Calcium = Ca (in periodic table) = energy levels

Iron = Fe (in periodic table) ; 4 energy levels

Nickel = Ni (in periodic table); 4 energy levels

Zinc = Zn (in periodic table) = 4 energy levels
