The enthalpy change of the reaction indicates that it is an <u>endothermic process.</u>

FURTHER EXPLANATION

Enthalpy (ΔH) is the amount of heat absorbed or released in a reaction. It is based on the amount of energy needed to break the bonds and the energy released during bond formation. Enthalpy change is the difference in the enthalpy of the reactants and the products. The positive or negative sign for an enthalpy value indicates the direction of the heat flow: a positive ΔH indicates that the reaction is endothermic while a negative value for ΔH means that the reaction is exothermic.

Endothermic Reactions

Endothermic reactions are reactions that absorb heat from the surroundings to the system. This is the case when more energy is absorbed to break the bonds than is released to form the bonds. Endothermic reactions can be identified in the lab by observing if the reaction vessel becomes cooler as the reaction proceeds.

Exothermic Reactions

When the amount of energy released during bond formation is greater than the amount of energy absorbed during bond breaking, a net release of energy to the surroundings takes place and the reaction is exothermic. Exothermic reactions can be identified when the reaction vessel becomes hot as the reaction progresses.

Answer : Normally in any chemical reaction, if the enthalpy change i.e. ΔH is positive which means it is greater than zero then it can be called as an Endothermic Reaction.

Whereas, the system under study is absorbing heat that is produced during the reaction. So if ΔH is found to be positive then it can be called as endothermic reaction.

How many grams of XeF6 are required to react with 0.579 L of hydrogen gas at 6.46 atm and 45°C in the reaction shown below?

ankoles [38]

The chemical reaction equation for this is

XeF6 + 3H2 ---> Xe + 6HF

Assuming gas behaves ideally, we use the ideal gas formula to solve for number of moles H2 with T = 318.15K (45C), P = 6.46 atm, V = 0.579L. Then we use the gas constant R = 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1.

we get n = 0.1433 moles H2

to get the mass of XeF6,

we divide 0.1433 moles H2 by 3 since 1 mole XeF6 needs 3 moles H2 to react then multiply by the molecular weight of XeF6 which is 245.28 g/mole XeF6.

0.1433 moles H2 x $\frac{1 mole XeF6}{3 moles H2}$ x $\frac{245.28 g XeF6}{1 mole XeF6}$ = 11.71 g XeF6

Therefore, 11.71 g of XeF6 is needed to completely react with 0.579 L of Hydrogen gas at 45 degrees Celcius and 6.46 atm.
