Monochloroethane (C2H5Cl) can be produced by the direct reaction of ethane gas (C2H6) with chlorine gas or by the reaction of ethylene gas (C2H4) with hydrogen chloride gas. The second reaction gives almost a 100% yield of pure C2H5Cl at a rapid rate without catalysis. The first method requires light as an energy source or the reaction would not occur. Yet G for the first reaction is considerably more negative than G for the second reaction. Explain how this can be so.
For the endothermic reaction AB(g)A(g)+B(g), the following represents a reaction container at two different temperatures. Which one (I or II) is at the lower temperature?
Old-fashioned smelling salts consist of ammonium carbonate, (NH4)2CO3. The reaction for the decomposition of ammonium carbonate (NH4)2CO3(s)2NH3(g)+CO(g)+H2O(g) is endothermic. Would the smell of ammonia increase or decrease as the temperature is increased?
In Chapter 3, we discussed the conversion of biomass into biofuels. One important area of research associated with biofuels is the identification and development of suitable catalysts to increase the rate at which fuels can be produced. Do a web search to find an article describing biofuel catalysts. Then, write one or two sentences describing the reactions being catalyzed, and identify the catalyst as homogeneous or heterogeneous.
Which sentence best describes the following reaction? 2H2(g)+O2(g)2H2O(l)+heat a. It is an endothermic reaction. b. It is an exothermic double-replacement reaction. c. It is a synthesis reaction that is also exothermic. d. It is a decomposition reaction that is also endothermic.
. Hydrogen gas and chlorine gas in the presence of light react explosively to form hydrogen chloride H2(g)+Cl2(g)2HCl(g)The reaction is strongly exothermic. Would an increase in temperature for the system lend to favor or disfavor the production of hydrogen chloride?
The reaction of carbon monoxide with hydrogen to form methanol is quite slow at room temperature. As a general rule, reactions go faster at higher temperatures. Suppose that you tried to speed up this reaction by increasing the temperature. (a) Assuming that rH does not change very much as the temperature changes, what effect would increasing the temperature have on rSsurroundings? (b) Assuming that rS for a reaction System does not change much as the temperature changes, what effect would increasing the temperature have on rSuniverse?
7-69 Pure carbon exists is several forms, two of which are diamond and graphite. The conversion of the diamond form to the graphite form is exothermic to a very slight extent. How is it that jewelers can advertise "Diamonds are forever"?
Describe how you would expect the spontaneity (G) for each of the following reactions to behave with a change of temperature. a Phosgene, COCl2, the starting material for the preparation of polyurethane plastics, decomposes as follows: COCl2(g)CO(g)+Cl2(g) b Chlorine is added to ethylene to produce dichloroethane, a solvent: Cl2(g)+C2H4(g)C2H4Cl2(l)
The following equation represents a reversible decomposition: CaCO3(s)CaO(s)+CO2(g) Under what conditions will decomposition in a closed container proceed to completion so that no CaCO3 remains?
During polymerization, the system usually becomes more ordered as monomers link together. Could an endothermic polymerization reaction ever occur spontaneously? Explain.
Consider the reaction N2O4(g)2NO2(g). Would you expect this reaction to be endothermic or exothermic? Why? N2O4 is a colorless gas; NO2 is red-brown. Would you expect a mixture of these gases to become more or less red-brown as you raise the temperature? Explain.
