What is the amount of heat released when 25g of water cools 12.5 degrees C ?
Over [174]
Water can't cool at a single temperature. It must start at a higher temperature, and drop to a lower temperature in order to cool. Unless we know the other temperature, there is no way to calculate the amount of thermal energy released.

Equation: 3Cu(s) 8HNO3(aq) --> 2NO(g) 3Cu(NO3)2(aq) 4H2O(l) In the above reaction, the element oxidized is ______, the reduci
igomit [66]

Answer:

1. Cu

2. Cu

3. 2 electrons.

Explanation:

Step 1:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

3Cu(s) + 8HNO3(aq) -> 2NO(g) 3Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 4H2O(l)

Step 2:

Determination of the change of oxidation number of each element present.

For Cu:

Cu = 0 (ground state)

Cu(NO3)2 = 0

Cu + 2( N + 3O) = 0

Cu + 2(5 + (3 x -2)) =0

Cu + 2 (5 - 6) = 0

Cu + 2(-1) = 0

Cu - 2 = 0

Cu = 2

The oxidation number of Cu changed from 0 to +2

For N:

HNO3 = 0

H + N + 3O = 0

1 + N + (3 x - 2) = 0

1 + N - 6 = 0

N = 6 - 1

N = 5

NO = 0

N - 2 = 0

N = 2

The oxidation number of N changed from +5 to +2

The oxidation number of oxygen and hydrogen remains the same.

Note:

1. The oxidation number of Hydrogen is always +1 except in hydride where it is - 1

2. The oxidation number of oxygen is always - 2 except in peroxide where it is - 1

Step 3:

Answers to the questions given above

From the above illustration,

1. Cu is oxidize because its oxidation number increased from 0 to +2 as it loses electron.

2. Cu is the reducing agent because it reduces the oxidation number of N from +5 to +2.

3. The reducing agent i.e Cu transferred 2 electrons to the oxidising agent HNO3 because its oxidation number increase from 0 to +2 as it loses its electrons. This means that Cu transfer 2 electrons.

For the reaction A (g) → 2 B (g), K = 14.7 at 298 K. What is the value of Q for this reaction at 298 K when ∆G = -20.5 kJ/mol?
harina [27]

Answer:

Q= 245 =2.5 * 10^2

Explanation:

ΔG = ΔGº + RTLnQ, so also ΔGº= - RTLnK

R= 8,314 J/molK, T=298K

ΔGº= - RTLnK = - 6659.3 J/mol = - 6.7 KJ/mol

ΔG = ΔGº + RTLnQ → -20.5KJ/mol = - 6.7 KJ/mol + 2.5KJ/mol* LnQ

→ 5.5 = LnQ → Q= 245 =2.5 * 10^2

Octane (C8H18) undergoes combustion according to the following thermochemical equation. 2C8H18(l) + 25O2(g) → 16CO2(g) + 18H2O(l
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: The standard enthalpy of formation of liquid octane is -250.2 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_8H_{18}(l)+25O_2(g)\rightarrow 16CO_2(g)+18H_2O(l)

First we have to calculate the enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H^o).

\Delta H^o=H_f_{product}-H_f_{reactant}

\Delta H^o=[n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}+n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}]-[n_{C_8H_{18}}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(C_8H_{18})+n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}]

where,

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.5kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(C_8H_{18}(l))}=?kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(l))}=-285.8kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

-1.0940\times 10^4=[(16\times -393.5)+(18\times -285.8)]-[(25\times 0)+(2\times \Delat H_f{C_8H_{18}(l)}]

\Delta H^o_f_{(C_8H_{18}(l))}=-250.2kJ/mol

Thus the standard enthalpy of formation of liquid octane is -250.2 kJ/mol
