ΔHrxn = ΣδΗ(bond breaking) - ΣδΗ(bond making)
Bond enthalpies,
N ≡ N ⇒ 945 kJ mol⁻¹
N - Cl ⇒ 192 kJ mol⁻¹
Cl - Cl⇒ 242 kJ mol⁻¹
According to the balanced equation,
ΣδΗ(bond breaking) = N ≡ N x 1 + Cl - Cl x 3
= 945 + 3(242)
= 1671 kJ mol⁻¹
ΣδΗ(bond making) = N - Cl x 3 x 2
= 192 x 6
= 1152 kJ mol⁻¹
δHrxn = ΣδΗ(bond breaking) - ΣδΗ(bond making)
= 1671 kJ mol⁻¹ - 1152 kJ mol⁻¹
= 519 kJ mol⁻¹
Answer:
The amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.
Explanation:
Let's assume amount of sodium is x mg per cracker, y mg per pretzel and z mg per cookie.
So, the following three equations can be written as per given information:
x+y+z = 149 ........(1)
8y+8z = 936 ........(2)
6x+7y = 535 .........(3)
From equation- (2), y+z = 
= 117
By substituting the value of (y+z) in equation- (1) we get,
x = 149-(y+z) = 149-117 = 32
By substituting the value of x into equation- (3) we get,
y = 
= 49
By substituting the value of y into equation- (2) we get,
z = (117-49) = 68
So, the amount of sodium is 32 mg per cracker, 49 mg per pretzel and 68 mg per cookie.
Unburned hydrocarbon on reacting with oxygen undergoes combustion reaction. However, the activation energy of this reaction is significantly high. When a catalyst like Pd is added to the reaction system, it provides active sites for the reaction to occur. It acts are a heterogeneous catalyst. It is pertinent of note that catalyst is refereed as heterogeneous, when it exist in different phase as compared to reactant and products. In present case, reactants and products are in gas phase, while catalyst is in solid phase. Due to availability of larger surface area at active site of Pd, activation energy of reaction decreases and decrease in activation energy favors higher reaction rates.
