Identify this reaction

A process at constant T and P can be described as spontaneous if ΔG < 0 and nonspontaneous if ΔG > 0. Over what range of t

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Incomplete question, it is lacking the data it makes reference. The missing data from Chegg is:

2 SO3(g) → 2 SO2(g) + O2(g)

ΔHf° (kJ mol-1) -395.7 -296.8

S° (J K-1 mol-1) 256.8 248.2 205.1

ΔH° = kJ

S° = J K⁻¹

Explanation:

The method to solve this problem calls for the use of the Gibbs standard free energy change:

ΔG = ΔrxnH - TΔSrxn

We know a reaction is spontaneous when ΔG is < 0, so to answer this question we need to solve for the temperature, T, at which ΔG becomes negative.

Now as mentioned in the hint, we need to determine ΔrxnH and ΔSrxn, which are given by

ΔrxnH = ∑ ν x ΔfHº products - ∑ ν x ΔfHº reactants

where ν is the stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

For ΔS we have likewise

ΔrxnS = ∑ ν x ΔSº products - ∑ ν x ΔSº reactants

Thus,

ΔrxnH(kJmol⁻¹) = 2 x (-296.8) - 2 x ( -395.7 ) = 197.8 kJ

ΔrxnS ( JK⁻¹) = 2 x 248.2 + 205.1 - 2 x 256.8 = 187.9 JK⁻¹ = 0.1879 kJK⁻¹

So ΔG kJ = 197.8 - T(0.1879)

and the reaction will become spontaneous when the term T(0.1879) becomes greater that 197.8,

0 = 197.8 - 0.1879 T ⇒ T = 1052 K

so the reaction is spontaneous at temperatures greater than 1052 K (780 ºC)

How does liquid turn into gas? (Question for my sister)

kodGreya [7K]

If you were to take water (like many other materials) and break it up into almost the smallest things you could, you’d get molecules. If the molecules are stuck together really tightly in a regular pattern, then they’re called a solid. The solid form of water is ice. This actually makes a lot of sense, because it certainly does seem like all the little parts of a solid (like ice) are stuck together very tightly.

When you heat something up, it makes the molecules move faster. If you heat up a typical solid, it melts and becomes a liquid. In a liquid (like water), the molecules are still stuck together, but they can move around some. What actually happens is that the molecules are still sort of sticking together, but they’re constantly breaking apart and sticking to different molecules. This also makes sense when you think about water. Water sort of sticks together, but it breaks apart /really/ easily.

If you heat a liquid like water up even more (like if you put it in a pot on the stove), then the molecules will move around so fast that they can’t even hold on to each other at all. When this happens, all of the molecules go flying apart and become a gas (like when you boil water to make steam). The process of gas molecules leaving the liquid to go into the gas is called "evaporation." The opposite process is called "condensation."

How many words can the word DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID make

Lesechka [4]

Answer: four hundred and 18

Explanation:

Simple math showed that only 16 words are possible from a two-letter combination, but a three-letter code produces 64 words. Operating on the principle that the simplest solution is often correct, researchers assumed a three-letter code called a codon.

Fractional distillation of a mass mixture of 10 g water and 10 g perchloric acid would yield a distillate with what composition

jek_recluse [69]

Azeotrope is a mixture of two or more liquids whose proportions cannot be changed by simple distillation.

Explanation:

Nitic acid and water is an example of azeotrope. The composition of 68% of nitric acid and 32% of water by mass in a boiling point of 393.5k.

The composition of perchloric acid (71.6%) and water boils at 203°c. Pure iron solution weights about 10g is placed in a beaker, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid mixtures are added and heated to dissolve. Add perchloric acid until it evaporate and produces white smoke.cool it down add water and dissolve the salt.

What precipitate is most likely formed from a solution containing ba+2, li+1, oh-1, and co3-2.

USPshnik [31]

The precipitate that is most likely formed from a solution containing Ba+2, Li+, OH-1, and CO3^-2 is BaCO3.
This is because carbonates of all metals except sodium, Lithium potassium (group 1) and ammonium are insoluble in water. Hydroxides of sodium, Lithium, potassium and ammonium are very soluble in water, calcium and barium are moderately soluble. Ba(CO3) is insoluble in water and therefore forms a precipitate.
