<u>Given:</u>
H2(g) + Cl2 (g) → 2HCl (g)
<u>To determine:</u>
The enthalpy of the reaction and whether it is endo or exothermic
<u>Explanation:</u>
Enthalpy of a reaction is given by the difference between the enthalpy of formation of reactants and products
ΔH = ∑nHf (products) - ∑nHf (reactants)
= [2Hf(HCl)] - [Hf(H2) + Hf(Cl2)] = 2 (-92.3) kJ = - 184.6 kJ
Since the reaction enthalpy is negative, the reaction is exothermic
<u>Ans:</u> The enthalpy of reaction is -184. kJ and the reaction is exothermic
Answer : All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate.
Explanation :
The given rate of reaction is,

The expression for rate of reaction for the reactant :
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }NH_3=-\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NH_3]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DNH_3%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNH_3%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of disappearance of }O_2=-\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{d[O_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20disappearance%20of%20%7DO_2%3D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
The expression for rate of reaction for the product :
![\text{Rate of formation of }NO_2=+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DNO_2%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BNO_2%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7BRate%20of%20formation%20of%20%7DH_2O%3D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B6%7D%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%5BH_2O%5D%7D%7Bdt%7D)
From this we conclude that, all the options are correct.
I mostly believe in between D and B beacuse K3po4 and caco3 is not an element equation
