Answer:
The standard enthalpy of formation of this isomer of octane is -220.1 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The combustion reaction of octane produces 5104.1 kJ per mol octane
Step 2: The balanced equation
C8H18(g) + 12.5 O2 ⟶ 8CO2 (g) + 9 H2O (g) ∆H°rxn = -5104.1 kJ/mol
Step 3:
∆H°rxn = ∆H°f of products minus the ∆H° of reactants
∆H°rxn = ∆H°f products - [∆H°f reactants]
-5104.1 kJ/mol = (8*∆H°fCO2 + 9*∆H°fH20) - (∆H°fC8H18 + 12.5∆H°fO2)
∆H°f C8H18 = ∆H°f 8CO2 + ∆H°f 9H2O+ 5104.1 kJ/mol
∆H°f C8H18 = 8 * (-393.5 kJ)/mol + 9 * (-241.8 kJ/mol)] + 5104.1 kJ
/mol
∆H°f C8H18 = -220.1 kJ/mol
The standard enthalpy of formation of this isomer of octane is -220.1 kJ/mol
Answer:
Option B. A
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
C(s) + 2H₂ (g) —> CH₄ (g). ΔH = –74.9 kJ
From the reaction above, we can see that the enthalpy change (ΔH) is negative (i.e –74.9 KJ) which implies that the heat content of the reactants is greater than the heat content of the products. Thus, the reaction is exothermic reaction.
For an exothermic reaction, the energy profile diagram is drawn in such a way that the heat content of reactants is higher than the heat content of products because the enthalpy change
(ΔH) is always negative.
Thus, diagram A (i.e option B) gives the correct answer to the question.
The Avogadro number represents the number of units in one mole of a chemical substance.
So to find the mole number of a chemical element, you divide its atom number of the Avogadro number which Na = 6.02*10^23 approx.
So n=N/Na (n=mole number, N=number of atoms, Na=Avogadro number)
n=1.0*10^15/6.02*10^23
n=1.6 * 10^-9
So 1.0*10^15 atoms of Sodium represent 1.6*10^-9 mol.
Hope this Helps! :)
