- Actually, the carbon in CO2(g) is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the carbon in calcium carbonate(limestone). Verify this by determining the standardGibbs free energy change for the reaction of lime,CaO(s), with CO2(g) to make CaCO3(s).arrow_forwardWhich of the following quantities can be taken to be independent of temperature? independent of pressure? (a) H for a reaction (b) S for a reaction (c) G for a reaction (d) S for a substancearrow_forwardReword the statement in Question 109 so that it is always true. Criticize this statement: Provided it occurs at an appreciable rate, any chemical reaction for which rG 0 will proceed until all reactants have been converted toproducts.arrow_forward
- When 7.11 g NH4NO3 is added to 100 mL water, the temperature of the calorimeter contents decreases from 22.1 C to 17.1 C. Assuming that the mixture has the same specific heat as water and a mass of 107 g, calculate the heat q. Is the dissolution of ammonium nitrate exothermic or endothermic?arrow_forwardConsider the reaction NH4+(aq) H+(aq)+NH3(aq) Use G f for NH3(aq) at 25C=26.7 kJ/mol and the appropriate tables to calculate (a) G at 25C (b) Ka at 25Carrow_forwardCalcium carbide, CaC2, is manufactured by reducing lime with carbon at high temperature. (The carbide is used in turn to make acetylene, an industrially important organic chemical.) Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?arrow_forward
- Define the joule in terms of SI base units.arrow_forwardUse the appropriate tables to calculate H for (a) the reaction between copper(II) oxide and carbon monoxide to give copper metal and carbon dioxide. (b) the decomposition of one mole of methyl alcohol (CH3OH) to methane and oxygen gases.arrow_forwardShould heat be added as a reactant or as a product to each of the following equations for chemical reactions based on the given thermicity for the reaction? a. H2 + Cl2 2HCl (exothermic) b. 4NO + 6H2O 4NH3 + 5O2 (endothermic) c. 2H2O + 2Cl2 4HCl + O2 (endothermic) d. 2H2O 2H2 + O2 (exothermic)arrow_forward
- Consider a metal ion A2+ and its nitrate salt, In an experiment, 35.00 mL of a 0.217 M solution of A(NO3)2 is made to react with 25.00 mL of 0.195 M NaOH. A precipitate, A(OH)2, forms. Along with the precipitation, the temperature increases from 24.8C to 28.2C. What is H for the precipitation of A(OH)2? The following assumptions can be made. • The density of the solution is 1.00 g/mL. • Volumes are additive. • The specific heat of the solution is 4.18 J/g C.arrow_forwardCalculate the standard Gibbs free-energy change when SO3 forms from SO2 and O2 at 298 K. Why is sulfur trioxide an important substance to study? (Hint: What happens when it combines with water?)arrow_forwardIn a constant‑pressure calorimeter, 65.0 mL65.0 mL of 0.350 M Ba(OH)20.350 M Ba(OH)2 was added to 65.0 mL65.0 mL of 0.700 M HCl.0.700 M HCl. The reaction caused the temperature of the solution to rising from 23.61 ∘C23.61 ∘C to 28.38 ∘C.28.38 ∘C. If the solution has the same density and specific heat as water (1.00 g/mL1.00 g/mL and 4.184J/g⋅°C,)4.184J/g⋅°C,) respectively), what is Δ?ΔH for this reaction (per mole H2OH2O produced)?
