1.

∴ the empirical formula of the unknown gas is C5O2N3H9

2. (1) Balancing: MnO4 (aq) → Mn2+ (aq)

MnO4 (aq) → Mn2+ (aq) + 4 H2O

MnO4 (aq) + 8 H+ → Mn2+ (aq) + 4 H2O

3 OH + MnO4 (aq) + 8 H+ → Mn2+ (aq) + 4 H2O + 8 OH

8 H2O + MnO4 (aq) → Mn2+ (aq) + 4 H2O + 8 OH

4 H2O + MnO4 (aq) → Mn2+ (aq) + 8 OH

4 H2O + MnO4 (aq) + 5 e → Mn2+ (aq) + 8 OH (x 28)

 

(2) Balancing C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq)

14 H2O + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq)

14 H2O + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq) + 34 H+

34 OH + 14 H2O + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq) + 34 H+ + 34 OH

34 OH + 14 H2O + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq) + 34 H2O

34 OH + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq) + 20 H2O

34 OH + C6H12O4 (aq) → 6 HCO3 (aq) + 20 H2O + 28 e (x 5)

(3) Combine half equations for the final answer: 12 H2O + 28 MnO4 (aq) + 5 C6H12O4 (aq) 28 Mn2+ (aq) + 54 OH + 30 HCO3 (aq)

7. (1) calculate the number of moles of H3PO4 that would be produced to determine the limiting reagent:

O2 is the limiting reagent

(2) The mass of the excess reagents that did not react:

Excess mass = (205.0 + 225.0 + 240.0) g – 551.2 g = 118.8 g

8. 28.6% by mass means there are 28.6 g C2H6O2 in 100 g of solution. Therefore, the mass of water in the solution is the difference between these values:

  1. (1) Balanced chemical equation: C2H5OH (l) + 3 O2 (g) → 2 CO2 (g) + 3 H2O (l)

        (2) Find the mass of CO2 (g):

  • O2 is the limiting reagent ∴ mass of CO2 = (1.850 mol)(44.01g/mol) = 81.4 g

Chapter 3 – Thermochemistry

 

  1. (1) calculate the value of q for the combustion of 1.22 g of C6H10O(l) at a constant volume (which means that q = ∆U)

qreaction = ΔU = – qwater – qcal

            qreaction = – mH2O∙c∙∆TH2O-(Ccal∙∆Tcal)

            qreaction = -(2725 g)(4.188 J/g∙K)(2.75 K) – (3500 J/K)(2.75 K)

            qreaction = – 40988 J

            qreaction = – 40.988 kJ

For one mole; there is 98.14 g

x = ΔU = – 3297 kJ

(2) now, we will find Q, W, ∆H and ∆U at constant pressure. But ∆U is always -3297 kJ

3. The heat that leaves the iron enters the water and the container:

 

4. (1) Use Hess’ Law

C (graphite) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g)                                      ΔH = – 393.5 kJ

2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2 H2O (l)                                           ΔH = 2(- 285.8 kJ) = – 571.6 kJ

CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (l) → CH3OH (l) + 32 O2 (g)                 ΔH = -(- 726.4 kJ) = +726.4 kJ

CH3OH (l) → CH3OH (g)                                                  ΔH= + 37.4 kJ


C (graphite) + 2 H2 (g) + 12 O2 (g) → CH3OH (g)                   ΔH = -201.3 kJ

5. 

Technically, the sign here should be negative since heat is leaving, but since this is already acknowledged in the question, it’s not needed.
