Which of the following statements correctly describes the greenhouse effect

What is the enthalpy for the following reaction? overall: C + 1/2O2→CO

telo118 [61]

Answer:

ΔH°(f) = -110.5 Kj/mole (exothermic)

Explanation:

C + 1/2O₂ => CO

This is asking for the 'Standard Heat of Formation (ΔH°(f)* for carbon monoxide (CO). Values for many compounds can be found in the appendix of most college general chemistry text books. From Ebbing & Gammon, 11th edition, General Chemistry, Appendix C, page 8A.

*Standard Heat of Formation by definition is the heat gained or lost on formation of a substance (compound) from its basic elements in standard state.

The ΔH°(f) values as indicated are found in the appendix of most college chemistry texts. By choosing any compound, one can determine the standard heat of formation equation for the substance of interest. For example, consider Magnesium Carbonate; MgCO₃(s).The basic standard states of each element is found in the Appendix on Thermodynamic Properties for Substances at 25°C & 1 atm. having ΔH°(f) values = 0.00 Kj/mole. All elements in standard state have a 0 Kj/mol. See appendix and note that under the ΔH°(f) symbol some substances have 0.00 Kj/mol values. The associated element will be in basic standard state,

Standard Heat of Formation Equation for formation of Magnesium Carbonate;

Mg°(s) + C°(gpt)* + 3/2O₂(g) => MgCO₃(s) ; ΔH°(f) = -1111.7 Kj/mole

A compound is made up of 28 g N, 24 g C, 48 g O, and 8 g H .What is the empirical formula?

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

$\rm C_2H_8N_2O_3$ .

Explanation:

<h3>Step One: calculate the coefficients. </h3>

Look up the relative atomic mass of these four elements on a modern periodic table:

$\rm C$ : approximately $12$ .
$\rm H$ : approximately $1$ .
$\rm N$ : approximately $14$ .
$\rm O$ : approximately $16$ .

The relative atomic mass of an element is numerically equal to the mass (in grams, $\rm g$ ,) of one mole of atoms of this element.

For example, the relative atomic mass of $\rm C$ is approximately $12$ . Therefore, each mole of $\rm C\!$ atoms would have a mass of $12\; \rm g$ .

This sample contains $24\; \rm g$ of carbon. That would correspond to approximately $\displaystyle \left(\frac{24}{12}\right)\; \rm mol = 2\; \rm mol$ of $\rm C$ atoms.

Similarly, for the other three elements:

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{H}) \approx \frac{8\; \rm g}{1\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} = 8\; \rm mol$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{N}) \approx \frac{28\; \rm g}{14\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} = 2\; \rm mol$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{O}) \approx \frac{48\; \rm g}{16\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} = 3\; \rm mol$ .

Hence, the ratio between these elements in this compound would be:

$n(\mathrm{C}): n(\mathrm{H}): n(\mathrm{N}):n(\mathrm{O}) = 2: 8 : 2 : 3$ .

In the empirical formula of a compound, the coefficients should represent the smallest possible integer ratio between the number of atoms of these elements.

$n(\mathrm{C}): n(\mathrm{H}): n(\mathrm{N}):n(\mathrm{O}) = 2: 8 : 2 : 3$ is indeed the smallest possible integer ratio between the number of atoms of these elements.

<h3>Step Two: arrange the elements in an appropriate order</h3>

Apply the Hill System to arrange these four elements in the empirical formula. In the Hill System:

If carbon, $\rm C$ , is present in this compound, then:

$\rm C$ (carbon) and then $\rm H$ (hydrogen) will be the first two elements listed in the formula (ignore the hydrogen if it is not in the compound.)
The other elements in this compound will be listed in alphabetical order.

If there is no carbon $\rm C$ in this compound, then list all the elements in this compound in alphabetical order.

Both $\rm C$ (carbon) and $\rm H$ (hydrogen) are found in this compound. Therefore, the first element in the list would be $\rm C\!$ . The second would be $\rm H\!$ , followed by $\rm N\!$ and then $\rm O\!$ .

Hence, the empirical formula of this compound would be $\rm C_2H_8N_2O_3$ .
