Answer : The value of \Delta H_{rxn}  for the reaction is, -135.2 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The formation of ClF_3 will be,

ClF(g)+F_2(g)\rightarrow ClF_3(l)    \Delta H_{rxn}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) 2ClF(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow Cl_2O(g)+OF_2(g)     \Delta H_1=167.5kJ

(2) 2F_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2OF_2(g)    \Delta H_2=-43.5kJ

(3) 2ClF_3(l)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow Cl_2O(g)+3OF_2(g)    \Delta H_3=394.4kJ

We are dividing the reaction 1, 2 and 3 and reversing reaction 3 and then adding all the equations, we get :

(1) ClF(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}Cl_2O(g)+\frac{1}{2}OF_2(g)     \Delta H_1=\frac{167.5kJ}{2}=83.75kJ

(2) F_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow OF_2(g)    \Delta H_2=\frac{-43.5kJ}{2}=-21.75kJ

(3) \frac{1}{2}Cl_2O(g)+\frac{3}{2}OF_2(g)\rightarrow ClF_3(l)+O_2(g)    \Delta H_3=\frac{-394.4kJ}{2}=-197.2kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of ClF_3 will be,

\Delta H_{rxn}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3

\Delta H_{rxn}=(83.75kJ)+(-21.75kJ)+(-197.2kJ)

\Delta H_{rxn}=-135.2kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta H_{rxn}  for the reaction is, -135.2 kJ

How much energy (kJ) is required to change 0.18 mole of ice (s) at 0 C to water (l) at 0 C?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:25,06 kJ of energy must be added to a 75 g block of ice.

ΔHfusion(H₂O) = 6,01 kJ/mol.

T(H₂O) = 0°C.

m(H₂O) = 75 g.

n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).

n(H₂O) = 75 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 4,17 mol.

Q = ΔHfusion(H₂O) · n(H₂O)

Q = 6,01 kJ/mol · 4,17 mol

Q = 25,06 kJ.

What's the difference between incomplete dominance and codominance
EastWind [94]
In total dominance, the phenotype sees only one allele in the genotype. Both alleles in the genotype are seen in the phenotype during codominance. In incomplete dominance, in the phenotype, a mixture of the alleles in the genotype is seen.

Find the mass of 175.4mL of benzene if the density is 0.8786g/ml
bulgar [2K]
Hey there!:

Volume = 175.4 mL

density = 0.8786 g/mL  

mass = ?

Therefore:

D = m / V

0.8786 = m / 175.4

m = 0.8786 * 175.4

m = 154.10644 g

hope this helps!
