<u>Given:</u>
H2(g) + Cl2 (g) → 2HCl (g)
<u>To determine:</u>
The enthalpy of the reaction and whether it is endo or exothermic
<u>Explanation:</u>
Enthalpy of a reaction is given by the difference between the enthalpy of formation of reactants and products
ΔH = ∑nHf (products) - ∑nHf (reactants)
= [2Hf(HCl)] - [Hf(H2) + Hf(Cl2)] = 2 (-92.3) kJ = - 184.6 kJ
Since the reaction enthalpy is negative, the reaction is exothermic
<u>Ans:</u> The enthalpy of reaction is -184. kJ and the reaction is exothermic
A polar molecule<span> has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges (i.e. having partial positive and partial negative charges) from </span>polar<span> bonds arranged asymmetrically. Water (H</span>2<span>O) is an example of a </span>polar molecule<span> since it has a slight positive charge on one side and a slight negative charge on the other.</span>
Answer: 72.93 litres
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of gas (V) = ?
Temperature (T) = 24.0°C
Convert 24.0°C to Kelvin by adding 273
(24.0°C + 273 = 297K)
Pressure (P) = 1.003 atm
Number of moles (n) = 3 moles
Molar gas constant (R) is a constant with a value of 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1
Then, apply ideal gas equation
pV = nRT
1.003 atm x V = 3.00 moles x 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1 x 297K
1.003 atm•V = 73.15 atm•L
Divide both sides by 1.003 atm
1.003 atm•V/1.003 atm = 73.15 atm•L/1.003 atm
V = 72.93 L
Thus, the volume of the gas is 72.93 litres
