Answer:

equal to M

Explanation:

The mass of the fully melted mass and the initial solid will be the same. So, the mass of the melt is equal to M.

Mass is the amount of matter contained within a substance. Since only the phase changed and the amount of matter is still the same, the mass of the molten phase and the solid phase will remain the same.

We are correct to say that in the heating process no mass was destroyed or added in melting the solid.

A simple phase change that preserved the mass only occurred.

The following reactions can be used to prepare samples of metals. Determine the enthalpy change under standard state conditions
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

a) 62.1 kJ/mol

b) 2.82 kJ/mol

c) 270.91 kJ/mol

d) -851.5 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The enthalpy change for a reaction in standard conditions (ΔH°rxn) can be calculated by:

ΔH°rxn = ∑n*ΔH°f, products - ∑n*ΔH°f, reagents

Where n is the number of moles in the stoichiometry reaction, and ΔH°f is the enthalpy of formation at standard conditions. ΔH°f = 0 for substances formed by only a single element. The values can be found in thermodynamics tables.

a) 2Ag₂O(s) → 4Ag(s) + O₂(g)

ΔH°f, Ag₂O(s) = -31.05 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = 0 - (2*(-31.05)) = 62.1 kJ/mol

b) SnO(s) + CO(g) → Sn(s) + CO₂(g)

ΔH°f,SnO(s) = -285.8 kJ/mol

ΔH°f,CO(g) = -110.53 kJ/mol

ΔH°f,CO₂(g) = -393.51 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [-393.51] - [-110.53 - 285.8] = 2.82 kJ/mol

c) Cr₂O₃(s) + 3H₂(g) → 2Cr(s) + 3H₂O(l)

ΔH°f,Cr₂O₃(s) = -1128.4 kJ/mol

ΔH°f,H₂O(l) = -285.83 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [3*(-285.83)] - [( -1128.4)] = 270.91 kJ/mol

d) 2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) → Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s)

ΔH°f,Fe₂O₃(s) = -824.2 kJ/mol

ΔH°f,Al₂O₃(s) = -1675.7 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [-1675.7] - [-824.2] = -851.5 kJ/mol
