Considering the Hess's Law, the enthalpy change for the reaction is 221.8 kJ/mol.

Hess's Law indicates that the enthalpy change in a chemical reaction will be the same whether it occurs in a single stage or in several stages. That is, the sum of the ∆H of each stage of the reaction will give us a value equal to the ∆H of the reaction when it occurs in a single stage.

In this case you want to calculate the enthalpy change of:

C₂H₄ (g) + 6 F₂ (g) → 2 CF₄ (g) + 4 HF (g)

which occurs in three stages.

You know the following reactions, with their corresponding enthalpies:

Equation 1: H₂ (g) + F₂ (g) → 2 HF (g)     ∆H° = -79.2 kJ/mol

Equation 2: C (s) + 2 F₂ (g) → CF₄ (g)     ∆H° = 141.3 kJ/mol

Equation 3: 2 C(s) + 2 H₂ (g) → C₂H₄ (g)     ∆H° = -97.6 kJ/mol

Because of the way formation reactions are defined, any chemical reaction can be written as a combination of formation reactions, some going forward and some going back.

<h3 /><h3>FIRST STEP</h3>

First, to obtain the enthalpy of the desired chemical reaction you need one mole of C₂H₄ (g) on reactant side and it is present in first equation. Since this equation has one mole of C₂H₄ (g) on the product side, it is necessary to locate it on the reactant side (invert it).

When an equation is inverted, the sign of ΔH° also changes.

<h3>SECOND STEP</h3>

Now, you need 2 moles of CF₄ (g) on the product side. The second equation has 1 mole of CF₄ (g) on the product side, so it is necessary to multiply it by 2 to obtain 2 moles of CF₄ (g).

Since enthalpy is an extensive property, that is, it depends on the amount of matter present, since the equation is multiply by 2, the variation of enthalpy also.

<h3>THIRD STEP</h3>

Finally, you need 4 moles of  HF (g) on the product side. The first equation has 2 moles of  HF (g) on the product side, so it is necessary to multiply it by 2 to obtain 4 moles of the compound.

Since the equation is multiply by 2, the variation of enthalpy also is multiplied by 2.

<h3>SUMMARY</h3>

In summary, you know that three equations with their corresponding enthalpies are:

Equation 1: 2 H₂ (g) + 2 F₂ (g) → 4 HF (g)     ∆H° = -158.4 kJ/mol

Equation 2: 2 C (s) + 4 F₂ (g) → 2 CF₄ (g)     ∆H° = 282.6 kJ/mol

Equation 3: C₂H₄ (g) → 2 C(s) + 2 H₂ (g)     ∆H° = 97.6 kJ/mol

Adding or canceling the reactants and products as appropriate, and adding the enthalpies algebraically, you obtain:

C₂H₄ (g) + 6 F₂ (g) → 2 CF₄ (g) + 4 HF (g)     ΔH°= 221.8 kJ/mol

Finally, the enthalpy change for the reaction is 221.8 kJ/mol.

The prefix 'kilo-' means a thousand. So a kilo-gram is a thousand grams. 1 kilogram=1,000 grams How many kilograms is 1,008 gram
lesantik [10]

<u>Answer:</u>  1.0 kilograms.

<u>Explanation:</u>

One kilogram is equal to a thousand grams.

Supposing x to be the number of kilograms equal to one thousand and eight grams, we can write it as:

1 kg = 1000 grams

x kg = 1008 grams

To solve for x, we can simply divide 1008 grams by 1000 thousand grams to get the answer.

x = 1008 / 1000

x = 1.008

Rounding this value to the nearest tenth, it will become 1.0 kilograms.

In general, in what type of solvent (non-polar, moderately polar, or highly polar) are polar solutes most soluble? Explain why.
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

  • In general, polar solutes are most soluble in highly polar solvents.

Explanation:

The general rule is "like dissolves like" which means that <em>polar solvents </em>dissolve polar (or ionic) <em>solutes</em> and <em>non-polar solvents</em> dissolve non-polar solutes.

In order for a solvent dissolve a solute, the strength of the interacttion (force) between the solute and the solvent units (atoms, molecules, or ions) must be stronger than the strength of the forces that keep together he particles of the pure substances (known as intermolecular forces).

Since the nature of the interactions between the units are electrostatic, the more polar is the solvent the better it will be able to attract and surround the solute particles, keeping them separated and in solution. That mechanism explains why polar solutes will be most soluble in highly polar solvents.

Which of the following parts of the electromagnetic spectrum have longerwavelengths than those witnessed in the visible spectrum
Vikentia [17]
Infrared radiation is the only one with wavelengths longer than the wavelengths of visible light. X-rays and gamma rays are known to be shorter than visible wavelengths, and cosmic waves are only high energy particles. I hope this helped. And sorry about the late answer...
