<u>Answer:</u> When the enthalpy of this overall chemical equation is calculated, the enthalpy of the second intermediate equation is halved and has its sign changed.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.
According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.
The overall chemical reaction follows:
The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:
(1)
(2)
The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:
Hence, when the enthalpy of this overall chemical equation is calculated, the enthalpy of the second intermediate equation is halved and has its sign changed.
Answer:
C ≈ 1.44 × 10⁻³ mol/m³
Explanation:
The given information are;
The liquid volume the pond can hold = 104 m³
The volume of inflow into the pond = 5 m³/h
The volume of outflow into the pond = 5 m³/h
The concentration of the chemical in the inflow water = 0.01 mol/m³
The concentration of the chemical discharged directly into the water = 0.1 mol/h
The concentration, , of chemical that enters the water through inflow per hour is given as follows;
= 0.01 mol/m³ × 5 m³/h = 0.05 mol/h
The concentration, , of chemical that enters the water through direct discharge per hour is given as follows;
= 0.1 mol/h
The total concentration that enters the pond per hour is given as follows;
+
= 0.1 mol/h + 0.05 mol/h = 0.15 mol/h
Whereby the water in the pond properly mixes with the pond, we have;
The concentration of chemicals (C) in the outflow water = 0.15 mol/(104 m³) ≈ 0.00144 mol/m³
C ≈ 1.44 × 10⁻³ mol/m³.
