<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:
Explanation:
A bronsted lowry acid just means that it donates a proton.
An arrhenius acid dissolves in water to donate a proton
the only difference is that an arrhenius acid must dissolve in water but it still donates a proton so it is considered a bronsted lowry acid
The highest electronegativity is in the elements in the top left corner of the periodic table, and the lowest in the bottom right corner. Therefore, traveling up or to the left across the periodic table will increase the electronegativity
A mixture is a compound of two or more substances a pure substance is only made of one kind of atom and a solution is composed of a liquid substance made of two or more types of atoms
