Solid aluminum metal and diatomic chlorine gas react spontaneously to form a solid product. Give the balanced chemical equation

Response:

Tube 2: 8.26 * 10^-3; Tube 4: 6.83 * 10^-5

Explanation:

For the MIC test's serial dilutions, each tube should contain an equal volume of nutrient broth: 5.0 mL, while the agent's volume per dilution must also match: 0.5 mL.

The serial dilution process followed was:

• Tube 1: 0.5/5.5
• Tube 2: 0.5 mL from tube 1 was diluted with 5.0 mL of broth, resulting in a dilution of tube 2 as (1:11) * (1:11) = (0.5/5.5) * (0.5/5.5) = 1:121 = 8.26 * 10^-3
• Tube 3: similar calculations yield 1:1331 = 7.51 * 10^-4
• Tube 4: yields 1:14641 = 6.83 * 10^-5.

The Δ H value for butane (g) is -124.7 kJ/mol.

The Δ H value for CO2 (g) is -393.5 kJ/mol.

The Δ H value for H2O (g) is -241.8 kJ/mol.

The mass of butane is 8.30 grams.

Butane has a molar mass of 58 g/mol.

Considering the reaction,

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ = 4CO₂ + 5H₂O

To determine the Δ H° of the reaction:

ΔH°rxn = ∑nH° f (products) - ∑nH° f (reactants)

By substituting values, we find that

Δ H° rxn = 4 (-393.5) + 5 (-241.8) - (-124.7)

= -1574 -1209 + 124.7

= -2783 - 124.7

= -2658.3 kJ/mol

Now, we will calculate how many moles of butane are in 8.30 grams.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 8.30 / 58

= 0.143 moles

Therefore, the total energy released during the reaction is given by,

Q = number of moles × ΔH° rxn

= 0.143 × (2658.3)

= 380.14 kJ

Thus, the total heat released in the reaction is 380.14 kJ.

Explanation:

Initial moles of ethanoic acid = 0.020 mol

At equilibrium, half of the ethanoic acid molecules have reacted.

Thus, moles of ethanoic acid reacted = 0.020 mol * (50% / 100%)

                                                                     = 0.010 mol

Moles of ethanoic acid remaining = 0.020 mol - 0.010 mol = 0.010 mol

The moles of product gas formed are determined as follows:

0.010 mol CH3COOH * (1 mol / 2 mol CH3COOH)

= 0.005 mol

Consequently, the total moles of gas present in the vessel at equilibrium are 0.010 mol CH3COOH and 0.005 mol

Total gas moles at equilibrium = 0.010 mol + 0.005 mol = 0.015 mol

Next, let’s determine the pressure:

0.020 mol of gas has a pressure of 0.74 atm; so under the same conditions, we find the pressure exerted by 0.015 mol of gas:

P1/n1 = P2/n2

P2 = P1*(n2 / n1)

      = 0.74 atm * (0.015 mol / 0.020 mol)

     = 0.555 atm
