Explanation

Given, C(s) + O2(g) CO2(g);

fH = -393.5 kJ mol-1

... Heat released on formation of 44 g or 1 mole

               CO2 = -395.5 kJ mol

...  Heat released on the formation of 35.2 g of CO2

        = -393.5 kJ mol-1/44 g  x 35.2 g = -315 kJ mol-1

For the reaction, X2O4(l) 2XO2(g)

U = 2.1 kcal, S = 20 cal K-1 at 300 K. Hence, G is

Explanation

The change in Gibbs free energy is given by 

G = H - TS

where, H = enthalpy of the reaction 

S = entropy of the reaction

Thus, in order to determine  the value of  must be known. The value of  can be calculated by the equation

H = U + ngRT

Where U = Change  in internal energy.

ng = (number of moles of gaseous product) - (number of moles of gaseous rectant)

= 2-0 = 2

R = gas constant = 2cal

But, H = U + ngRT

U =2.1Kcal = 2.1 x 103 cal ( 1kcal = 103cal)

H = (2.1x103)+(2x2x300) = 3300 cal

Hence, G = H -TS

G = 3300 - (300x20)

In which of the following reactions, standard reaction entropy changes (S°) is positive and standard Gibbs energy change (G°) decreases sharply with increasing temperature?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Among the given reactions only in the case of 

 C(graphite) + 1/2 O2(g) CO(g)

entropy increases because randomness (disorder) increases. Thus, standard entropy change (S°) is positive.

Moreover, it is a combustion reaction and all the combustion reactions are generally exothermic, ie, 

H°=-ve

We know that

   G°=H°-TS°G° = -ve -T(+ve)

Thus, as the temperature increases, the value of G° decreases.

The enthalpy of fusion of water is 1.435 kcal/mol. The molar entropy change for the melting of ice at 0°C is

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Molar entropy change for the melting of ice, 

Svap.=Hvap. / T

= (1.435Kcal/mol) / (0+273)K

= 5.26 x 10-3 Kcal/molK

= 5.26 cal/mol K

Standard enthalpy of vaporisation vapH° for water at 100°C is 40.66 kJ mol-1. The internal energy of vaporisation of water at 100°C (in kJ mol-1) is

(Assume water vapour to behave like an ideal gas)

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

H2O(l) 100°CH2O(g)

vapH° = vapE° + ngRT

ng = np - nr = 1-0=1

... 40.66 kJ mol-1vapE° + 1x8.314x10-3x373

vapE° = 40.66 kJ mol-1 -3.1 kJ mol-1

             = +37.56 kJ mol-1

If the enthalpy change for the transition of liquid water to steam is 30 kJ mol-1 at 27°C, the entropy change for the process would be

Explanation

G° = H° - TS°

Given, Hvap.  = 30 KJmol-1

G° = 0 at equilibrium,

Svap.=Hvap. / T

= (30x103Jmol-1 ) / 300K

= 100 Jmol-1k-1

Enthalpy change for the reaction,

 4H(g) 2H2(g) is -869.6 kJ

The dissociation energy of H-H bond is

Explanation

4H(g) 2H2(g); H = -869.6 kJ

2H2(g) 4H(g); H = 869.6 kJ

H2(g) 2H(g); H = 869.6/2 = 434.8 kJ

The values of H and S for the reaction, 

C(graphite) + CO2(g) 2CO(g) are 170 kJ and 170 JK-1, respectively. This reaction will be spontaneous at

Explanation

Key Idea For spontaneous process G<0

G=H-TS

Given, H = 170 kJ = 170 x 103 J

           S = 170 JK-1

           T=?

         G=H-TS

 0<170 x103 - Tx170

          T>1000

... T=1110 K

Which of the following are not state functions?

(I) q + W                        (II) q

(III) W                           (IV) H-TS

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Key Idea: State function is the property of the system whose value depends only on the initial and final state of the system and is independent of the path.

... Internal energy (E) = q + W

It is a state function because it is independent of the path. It is an extensive property.

... Gibbs energy (G) = H-TS

It is also a state function because it is independent of the path. It is also an extensive property. Heat (q) and Work (W) are not state functions being path dependent.

Bond dissociation enthalpy of H2,Cl2 and HCl are 434,242 and 431kJ mol-1 respectively. Enthalpy of formation of HCl is 

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Key idea:  ΔHreaction =  Σ Bond energy of reactant -  Σ Bond energy of the product

Here, ΔHH-H = 434 kJ mol-1

        ΔHCl-Cl = 242 kJ mol-1

        ΔHH-Cl = 431 kJ mol-1

        1/2H2=1/2Cl2  HCl

ΔHreaction = 1/2ΔHH-H + 1/2ΔHCl-Cl - ΔHH-Cl

               = (1/2)x434 = (1/2)x242-431

               =  217+121-431

               = -93 kJ mol-1
