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

Draw the other possible resonance structure of each organic ion. In each case, draw the structure that minimizes formal charges.
pshichka [43]

Three resonance structures  can be drawn for the allyl cation while two resonance structures can be drawn for the amidate ion.

Sometimes, we cannot fully describe the bonding in a chemical specie using a single chemical structure. In such cases, we have to use a number of structures which cooperatively represent the actual bonding in the molecule. These structures are called resonance or canonical structures.

The resonance structures of the allyl cation and the amidate ion are shown in the images attached to this answer. These structures show the different bonding extremes in these organic ions.
