Measurements show that the enthalpy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 162. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, w

hich is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that -194. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. a.Calculate the change in energy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Round your answer to 3 significant digits b. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

Answer:

= -356KJ

<em>therefore, the reaction where heat is released is exothermic reaction since theΔH is negative</em>

Explanation:

given that enthalpy of gaseous reactants decreases by 162KJ and workdone is -194KJ

then,

change in enthalpy (ΔH) = -162( released energy)

work(w) = -194KJ

change in enthalpy is said to be negative if the heat is evolved during the reaction while heat change(ΔH) is said to be positive if the heat required for the reaction occurs.

At constant pressure the change in enthalpy is given as

ΔH = ΔU + PΔV

ΔU = change in energy

ΔV = change in volume

P = pressure

w =  -pΔV

therefore,

ΔH = ΔU -W

to evaluate  energy change we have,

ΔU =ΔH + W

ΔU = -162+ (-194KJ)

= -356KJ

<em>therefore, the reaction where heat is released is exothermic reaction since theΔH is negative</em>

What is the number of moles of potassium chloride present in 148 g of kcl?
OLga [1]
The number of moles of one substance given the amount in mass can be calculated by the use of the molar mass. This is the mass of a compound per 1 mol of the said substance. For, KCl the molar mass is 74.55 g/ mol

148 g / 74.55 g/mol = 2 mol KCl

Hope this answers the question. have a nice day.

Which method is suitable for collection a a<br>carbon dioxide.Explain​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide can be collected over water. Carbon dioxide is slightly soluble in water and denser than air, so another way to collect it is in a dry, upright gas jar.

Calculate the moles and grams of solute in each solution. D. 2.0 L of 0.30M Na2SO4. I already have A, B, and C. Thanks!
e-lub [12.9K]
Find the number of moles
C = n / V
C(Concentration) = 0.30 moles / L
V ( Volume) = 2 L
n = ??
n = C * V
n = 0.30 mol / L * 2 L
n = 0.60 mol


Find the molar mass
2Na = 23 * 2 = 46 grams
1S   = 32 * 1 = 32 grams
O4   = 16 * 4 = 64 grams
Total =            142 grams / mol

Find the mass
n = given mass / molar mass
n = 0.06 mol
molar Mass = 142 grams / mol
given mass = ???

given mass = molar mass * mols
given mass = 142 * 0.6
given mass = 85.2 grams. 

85.2 are in a 2 L solution that has a concentration of 0.6 mol/L

Why is the water cycle called a cycle and not a system?
alexira [117]
It is called a cycle because it is repetitive, therefore making it a cycle (or almost never ending)
