What are the missing coefficients for H3PO4 + HCl = PCl5 + H2o

Chemistry
1 answer:
grigory [225]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

H3PO4 + 5 HCl → PCl5 + 4 H2O

Explanation:

The given equation is

H3PO4 + HCl = PCl5 + H2O

The above chemical equation has one P atom on both the sides, hence phosphorus is balanced

There are 5 Cl on the RHS but only one Cl on the LHS. On balancing the chlorine, we get -

H3PO4 + 5HCl = PCl5 + H2O

Now, there are 8 hydrogen atom on the LHS but only two on the RHS. On balancing the hydrogen on both the sides, the new equation become

H3PO4 + 5HCl = PCl5 + 4H2O

Let us check for oxygen

Oxygen on LHS = 4 and oxygen on RHS = 4

Thus, the balanced equation is H3PO4 + 5HCl = PCl5 + 4H2O

A sample of a compound containing only carbon and oxygen decomposes and produces 24.50g of carbon and 32.59g of oxygen. what is
Fynjy0 [20]
<span>Carbon Monoxide. First, determine the relative number of moles of each element by looking up the atomic weights of carbon and oxygen Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Moles of Carbon = 24.50 g / 12.0107 g/mol = 2.039847802 mol Moles of Oxygen = 32.59 g / 15.999 g/mol = 2.037002313 mol Given that the number of moles of both carbon and oxygen are nearly identical, it wouldn't be unreasonable to think that the empirical formula for the compound is CO which also happens to be the formula for Carbon Monoxide.</span>

The activation energy for the reaction NO2(g)+CO(g)⟶NO(g)+CO2(g) is Ea = 375 kJ/mol and the change in enthalpy for the reaction
HACTEHA [7]
Answer: 625 kj/mol

Explanation:

As shown below this expression gives the activation energy of the reverse reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

1) The activation energy, EA is the difference between the potential energies of the reactants and the transition state:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of the reactants.

2) The activation energy of the forward reaction given is:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of  [ NO2(g) + CO(g) ] = 75 kj/mol

3) The negative enthalpy change - 250 kj / mol for the forward reaction means that the products are below in the potential energy diagram, and that the potential energy of the products, [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] is equal to 375 kj / mol - 250 kj / mol = 125 kj/mol

4) For the reverse reaction the reactants are [NO(g) + CO2(g)], and the transition state is the same than that for the forward reaction.

5) The difference of energy between the transition state and the potential energy of [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] will be the absolute value of the change of enthalpy plus the activation energy for the forward reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

EA reverse reaction = 375 kj / mol + |-250 kj/mol | = 375 kj/mol + 250 kj/mol = 625 kj/mol.

And that is the answer, 625 kj/mol

Calculate the solubility of CaF2 in g/L (Ksp = 4.0 x 10-8). 2. What is the pH of a solution containing a hydrogen ion concentrat
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

\large \boxed{1. \text{ 0.17 g/L; 2. 3.52; 3. Cl; 4. (a) +3; (b) +4; (c) +6}}

Explanation:

1. Solubility of CaF_2

(a) Molar solubility

CaF₂ ⇌ Ca²⁺ + 2F⁻

K_{\text{sp }} = \text{[Ca$^{2+}$]}\text{[F$^{-}$]}^{2}= 4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s(2s)^{2}=4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\4s^{3} = 4.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s^{3} = 1.0 \times 10^{-8}\\s =2.2 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}

(b) Mass solubility

\text{Solubility} = 2.2 \times 10^{-3} \text{ mol/L} \times \dfrac{\text{78.07 g}}{\text{1 L }} = \text{0.17 g/L}\\\\\text{The solubility of CaF$_{2}$ is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.17 g/L}}$}

2. pH

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log(3.0 × 10⁻⁴) = 3.52

3. Oxidizing and reducing agents

Zn + Cl₂ ⟶ ZnCl₂

\rm \stackrel{\hbox{0}}{\hbox{Zn}} + \stackrel{\hbox{0}}{\hbox{ Cl}_{2} }\longrightarrow \stackrel{\hbox{+2}}{\hbox{Zn}}\stackrel{\hbox{-1}}{\hbox{Cl}_{2}}

The oxidation number of Cl has decreased from 0 to -1.

Cl has been reduced, so Cl is the oxidizing agent.

4. Oxidation numbers

(a) Al₂O₃

\stackrel{\hbox{$\mathbf{+3}$}}{\hbox{Al}_{2}}\stackrel{\hbox{-2}}{\hbox{O}_{3}}

1O = -2; 3O = -6; 2Al  = +6; 1Al = +3

(b) XeF₄

\stackrel{\hbox{$\mathbf{+4}$}}{\hbox{Xe}}\stackrel{\hbox{-1}}{\hbox{F}_{4}}

1F = -1; 4F = -4; 1 Xe = +4

(c) K₂Cr₂O₇

\stackrel{\hbox{${+1}$}}{\hbox{K}_{2}}\stackrel{\hbox{$\mathbf{+6}$}}{\hbox{Cr}_{2}}\stackrel{\hbox{-2}}{\hbox{O}_{7}}

1K = +1; 2K = +2; 1O = -2; 7O = -14

+2 - 14 = -12

2Cr = + 12; 1 Cr = +6

2 reasons for chemical reactivity of nitrogen
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Due to presence of a triple bond between the two N−atoms, the bond dissociation enthalpy (941.4 kJ mol  

−1

) is very high. Hence, N  

2

​

 is the least reactive.
