Reactants are formed from a chemical bond with can be broken down by vaporizing
Answer: Combustion
Explanation:
Methane gas or natural gas is the hydrocarbon that reacts with oxygen as shown below: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O There are two types of combustion reactions: complete and incomplete combustion. Therefore there are four products, carbon dioxide, water, carbon, and carbon monoxide.
Strong electrolytes are completely ionised in solution.
Weak ones are only partially ionised.
Non electrolytes do not form ions
<u>Given:</u>
Mass of Ag = 1.67 g
Mass of Cl = 2.21 g
Heat evolved = 1.96 kJ
<u>To determine:</u>
The enthalpy of formation of AgCl(s)
<u>Explanation:</u>
The reaction is:
2Ag(s) + Cl2(g) → 2AgCl(s)
Calculate the moles of Ag and Cl from the given masses
Atomic mass of Ag = 108 g/mol
# moles of Ag = 1.67/108 = 0.0155 moles
Atomic mass of Cl = 35 g/mol
# moles of Cl = 2.21/35 = 0.0631 moles
Since moles of Ag << moles of Cl, silver is the limiting reagent.
Based on reaction stoichiometry: # moles of AgCl formed = 0.0155 moles
Enthalpy of formation of AgCl = 1.96 kJ/0.0155 moles = 126.5 kJ/mol
Ans: Formation enthalpy = 126.5 kJ/mol
