Answer: The enthalpy change for the reaction is, 201.9 kJ

Explanation:

Based on Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the energy released or absorbed in a chemical reaction stays constant, regardless of whether the process unfolds in one step or multiple steps.

This principle implies, that chemical equations can be treated analogously to algebraic expressions, allowing addition or subtraction to create the needed equation. Thus, the overall enthalpy change corresponds to the summation of the individual enthalpy changes of the reactions occurring in between.

The balanced equation for CH_4 appears as follows,

2CH_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+2H_2(g)    \Delta H^o=?

The intermediate balanced reactions are outlined as follows,

(1) CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)     \Delta H_1=-890.3kJ

(2) C_2H_4(g)+H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)     \Delta H_2=-136.3kJ

(3) 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=-571.6kJ

(4) 2C_2H_6(g)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+6H_2O(l)     \Delta H_4=-3120.8kJ

Next, we will multiply the first reaction by 2, reverse the second, and reverse and halve the third and fourth reactions before combining them. This gives us:

(1) 2CH_4(g)+4O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+4H_2O(l)     \Delta H_1=2\times (-890.3kJ)=-1780.6kJ

(2) C_2H_6(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+H_2(g)    \Delta H_2=-(-136.3kJ)=136.3kJ

(3) H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)    \Delta H_3=-\frac{1}{2}\times (-571.6kJ)=285.8kJ

(4) 2CO_2(g)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)+\frac{7}{2}O_2(g)     \Delta H_4=-\frac{1}{2}\times (-3120.8kJ)=1560.4kJ

Therefore, the expression for the enthalpy of the reaction is,

\Delta H^o=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3+\Delta H_4

\Delta H=(-1780.6kJ)+(136.3kJ)+(285.8kJ)+(1560.4kJ)

\Delta H=201.9kJ

Hence, the enthalpy change for this reaction is, 201.9 kJ

In a car piston shown above, the pressure of the compressed gas (red) is 5.00 atm. If the area of the piston is 0.0760 m^2. What
Anarel [852]

Answer:

The force is 38503.5N.

Explanation:

From the problem, we determine:

P (pressure) = 5.00 atm.

Next, to find the force in Newtons (N), we must convert 5 atm into N/m², as shown:

1 atm equals 101325 N/m².

So, 5 atm equals 5 x 101325 = 506625 N/m².

A (the piston area) = 0.0760 m².

Pressure signifies force per unit area, mathematically represented as

P = F/A.

From this, we find F = P × A.

F = 506625 × 0.0760.

Therefore, F = 38503.5N.

Thus, the piston experiences a force of 38503.5N.

(a) The mass density of a gaseous compound was found to be 1.23 kg m^−3 at 330 K and 20 kPa. What is the molar mass of the compo
castortr0y [927]

Answer:

La masa molar del compuesto es: 168.82 g/mol

La masa molar del gas es: 16.38 g/mol

Explanation:

(a)

Utilizando la ecuación de gases ideales:

PV=nRT

donde,

P es la presión

V es el volumen

n es el número de moles

T es la temperatura

R es la constante de los gases, cuyo valor es = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Además,

Moles = masa (m) / Masa molar (M)

La densidad (d) = Masa (m) / Volumen (V)

Así, la ecuación de gases ideales se puede expresar como:

PM=dRt

Dado que:-

Presión = 20 kPa = 20000 Pa

La expresión para la conversión de presión en Pascal a presión en atm se muestra a continuación:

P (Pa) = \frac {1}{101325} P (atm)

20000 Pa = \frac {20000}{101325} atm

Presión = 0.1974 atm

Temperatura = 330 K

d = 1.23 kg/m³ = 1.23 g/L

Masa molar =?

Aplica la fórmula:

0.1974 atm × M = 1.23 g/L × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 330 K

⇒M = 168.82 g/mol

La masa molar del compuesto es: 168.82 g/mol

(b)

Dado que:

Presión = 152 Torr

Temperatura = 298 K

Volumen = 250 cm³ = 0.25 L

Utilizando la ecuación de gases ideales:

PV=nRT

R = 62.3637\text{torr}mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Aplicando la fórmula:

152 Torr × 0.25 L = n × 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol × 298 K

⇒n = 0.002045 moles

Dado que:

Masa del gas = 33.5 mg = 0.0335 g

Masa molar =?

La fórmula para calcular los moles se muestra a continuación:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Así,

0.002045\ moles
= \frac{0.0335\ g}{Molar\ mass}

La masa molar del gas es: 16.38 g/mol

eduard [944]

Answer:

\%\ Composition\ of\ iron=69.92\ \%

Explanation:

The percent composition indicates the mass percentage of a specific element within the compound.

The chemical formula for chromium(III) nitrate is Cr(NO_3)_3.

The molar mass for chromium(III) nitrate is calculated at 238.011 g/mol.

Each mole of chromium(III) nitrate includes 9 moles of oxygen.

The molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol.

Hence, Mass = Molar mass * Moles = 16 * 9 g = 144 g.

\%\ Composition\ of\ iron=\frac{Mass_{iron}}{Total\ mass}\times 100

\%\ Composition\ of\ iron=\frac{144}{238.011}\times 100

\%\ Composition\ of\ iron=69.92\ \%
