When 2 moles of Fe(s) react with Cl2(g) to form FeCl3(s) according to the following equation, 799 kJ of energy are evolved.
1 answer:
Answer:
1. Exothermic.
2. -1598 kJ.
Explanation:
Hello!
1. In this case, according to the reaction, we can infer that 799 kJ of energy are evolved (given off, released) it means that the enthalpy of reaction is negative as the reactants have more energy than the products; which means this is an exothermic reaction.
2. Here, as we know that the enthalpy of reaction is -799 kJ/mol, we can compute the q-value as shown below, considering the reacted 2 moles of solid iron:
Which means that 1598 kJ of energy are evolved when 2 moles of solid iron react.

Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
q = 69.0 kJ = 69000 J (as 1 kJ = 1000 J),
mass (m) = 8.10 kg = 8100 g (as 1 kg = 1000 g)
= (33.9 + 273) K = 306.9 K
C = 4.18 J/gK
As we know that the relation between heat and change in temperature is as follows.
q =
Putting the values into the above formula to calculate the final temperature as follows.
q =
69000 J =
69000 J =
= 2.037 K
= (2.037 + 306.9) K
= 308.9 K
or, = 309 K (approx)
Thus, we can conclude that the new temperature of the water bath is 309 K.
