Determine the free energy(ΔG) from the standard cell potential (Ecell0 ) for the reaction:2ClO2-(aq)+Cl2(g)→2ClO2(g)+ 2Cl-(aq)wh

Dima020 [189]

Answer: The $\Delta G^o$ for the given reaction is $-7.84\times 10^4J$

Explanation:

For the given chemical reaction:

$2ClO_2^-(aq.)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2ClO_2(g)+2Cl^-(aq.)$

Half reactions for the given cell follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $ClO_2^-\rightarrow ClO_2+e^-;E^o_{ClO_2^-/ClO_2}=0.954V$ ( × 2)

Reduction half reaction: $Cl_2+2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl(g);E^o_{Cl_2/2Cl^-}=1.36V$

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E^o_{cell}=1.36-(0.954)=0.406V$

To calculate standard Gibbs free energy, we use the equation:

$\Delta G^o=-nFE^o_{cell}$

Where,

n = number of electrons transferred = 2

F = Faradays constant = 96500 C

$E^o_{cell}$ = standard cell potential = 0.406 V

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta G^o=-2\times 96500\times 0.406=-78358J=-7.84\times 10^4J$

Hence, the $\Delta G^o$ for the given reaction is $-7.84\times 10^4J$

Which of the following molecules would exhibit only London forces?a)CH4, BH3, and CCl4b)H2O, NH3, and CCl4c)PH3, NH3, and CCl4

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

Explanation:

London dispersion forces:-

The bond for example, in the molecule is F-F, which is non-polar in nature because the two fluorine atoms have same electronegativity values.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule are induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces which are the weakest intermolecular force.

Out of the given options, H₂O , NH₃ exhibits hydrogen bonding which is:-

Hydrogen bonding:-

Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.

Thus option B and C rules out.

Hence, the correct option which represents the molecules which would exhibit only London forces is:- a)CH₄, BH₃, and CCl₄

How many moles are in 158 grams of LiCl

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Number of moles = 3.73 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of LiCl = 158 g

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of LiCl = 42.4 g/mol

Number of moles = 158 g / 42.4 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.73 mol
