Answer:

\Delta _fH_{NH_3}=-66\frac{kJ}{mol}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the study of the bond energy allows us to compute the enthalpies of some reactions, for this combination reaction by which ammonia is yielded, we understand the enthalpy of reaction equals the enthalpy of formation of ammonia, and, in terms of the bonds energy we can write:

\Delta _fH_{NH_3}=Delta _rH=\Sigma \Delta H(bonds \ broken)-\Sigma \Delta H(bonds \ formed)

Whereas the bonds enthalpy of those bonds that get broken cover the N≡N and the three H-H bonds at the reactants side and the enthalpy of those bonds that are formed cover the six N-H bonds at the products; which means we obtain:

\Delta _fH_{NH_3}=942\frac{kJ}{mol} +3*436\frac{kJ}{mol}-6*386\frac{kJ}{mol}\\\\\Delta _fH_{NH_3}=-66\frac{kJ}{mol}

Which differs from the theoretical value that is -46 kJ/mol.

Best regards!

Doss [256]
Bacterial cells can pick up the DNA through the process of transformation. Lambda phages are used by eliminating the middle of its liner genome and adding the foreign DNA in the created space. The phage is then introduced into the bacterial cell where it replicated itself via the lysogenic cycle.

Pls it’s urgent
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

0.02 moles.

Explanation:

volume of H₂ gas at R.T.P = 480 cm³

Where

R.T.P = room temperature and pressure

molar volume of gas at = 24000 cm³

no. of moles of hydrogen = ?

Solution:

formula Used

       no. of moles = volume of gas / molar volume

put values in above equation

         no. of moles = 480 cm³ / 24000 cm³/mol

         no. of moles = 0.02 mol

So,

no. of moles of hydrogen in 480 cm³ is 0.02 moles.

Consider the following reversible reaction.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Keq = [CO₂]/[O₂]

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the reaction at equilibrium

C(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ CO₂(g)

Step 2: Write the expression for the equilibrium constant (Keq)

The equilibrium constant is equal to the product of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. It only includes gases and aqueous species. The equilibrium constant for the given system is:

Keq = [CO₂]/[O₂]
