Dry chemical hand warmers utilize the oxidation of iron to form iron oxide according to the following reaction: 4Fe(s)+3O2(g)→2Fe2O3(s) Standard thermodynamic quantities for selected substances at 25 ∘C Reactant or product ΔH∘f(kJ/mol) Fe(s) 0.0 O2(g) 0.0 Fe2O3(s) −824.2 Calculate ΔH∘rxn for this reaction.

-1648.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Based on Hess's law:

ΔHr = ∑n×ΔH°f(products) - ∑n×ΔH°f(reactants)

In the reaction:

4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Fe₂O₃(s)

ΔHr = 2 ΔH°f {Fe₂O₃} - (4ΔH°f {Fe(s)} + 3ΔH°f{O₂(g)}

As:

ΔH°f {Fe₂O₃} = -824.2kJ/mol

ΔH°f {Fe(s)} = 0.0kJ/mol

ΔH°f{O₂(g)} = 0.0kJ/mol.

Thus,

ΔHr = 2 ₓ -824.2kJ/mol =

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
