Repeated experimental observations that describe aspects of the universe
Answer:
ΔrxnH = -580.5 kJ
Explanation:
To solve this question we are going to help ourselves with Hess´s law.
Basically the strategy here is to work in an algebraic way with the three first reactions so as to reprduce the desired equation when we add them together, paying particular attention to place the reactants and products in the order that they are in the desired equation.
Notice that in the 3rd reaction we have 2 mol Na₂O (s) which is a reactant but with a coefficient of one, so we will multiply this equation by 1/2-
The 2nd equation has Na₂SO₄ as a reactant and it is a product in our required equation, therefore we will reverse the 2nd . Note the coefficient is 1 so we do not need to multiply.
This leads to the first equation and since we need to cancel 2 NaOH, we will nedd to multiply by 2 the first one.
Taking 1/2 eq 3 + (-) eq 2 + 2 eq 1 should do it.
Na₂O (s) + H₂ (g) ⇒ 2 Na (s) + H₂O(l) ΔrxnHº = 259 / 2 kJ 1/2 eq3
+ 2NaOH(s) + SO₃(g) ⇒ Na₂SO₄ (s) + H₂O (l) ΔrxnHº = -418 kJ - eq 2
+ 2Na (s) + 2 H₂O (l) ⇒ 2 NaOH (s) + H₂ (g) ΔrxnHº = -146 x 2 2 eq 1
<u> </u>
Na₂O (s) + SO₃ (g) ⇒ Na₂SO₄ (s) ΔrxnHº = 259/2 + (-418) + (-146) x 2 kJ
ΔrxnH = -580.5 kJ
Answer:
A
Explanation:
You want an equation that includes both V and T. Charles' Law states that V =kT or V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂, so this is the best formula to use.
B: The Combined Gas Law is p₁V₁/T₂ = p₂V₂/T₂ will work, but it's overkill for the situation. You can assume any constant value for the pressure, and it will cancel from each side of the equation,
C is wrong. Boyle's Law is p₁V₁ = p₂V₂. It does not include the temperature.
D is wrong. Gay-Lussac's Law is p₁/T₂ = p₂/T₂. It does not include the volume.
