Chapter 21, Problem 36PS

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of aluminium and water has to be given.

Concept introduction:

  • Balanced chemical equation of a reaction is written according to law of conservation of mass.
  • Stoichiometry of a chemical reaction is the relation between reactants and products of the reaction and it is represented by the coefficients used for the reactants and products involved in the chemical equation.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The standard free energy change, standard enthalpy change and standard entropy change for the given reaction has to be given.

Concept introduction:

The Gibbs free energy or the free energy change is a thermodynamic quantity represented by ΔG. It is related to entropy and entropy by the following expression,

ΔG=ΔHTΔS

Here, ΔH is the change in enthalpy and ΔS is the change in entropy.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Aluminum metal is unaffected by water. The reason behind this has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Aluminium has a chemical property that, it reacts with oxygen to form an oxide. The aluminium oxide is strong and it is unaffected by water.

The reaction occurred in this process is,

Al+2OAlO2

Which of the following statements are true?(a) Both nitrogen and phosphorus can form a pentafluoridecompound.(b) Although CO is a well-known compound, SiO does notexist under ordinary conditions.(c) Cl2 is easier to oxidize than I2.(d) At room temperature, the stable form of oxygen is O2,whereas that of sulfur is S8.
When 1.14 g of S is burned in the presence of O2 to give SO2, 10.3 kJ is released. From this information write the balanced equation, inserting the AH value (in kJ per mole S) on the proper side of the equation.
Hydrogen peroxide can be prepared in several ways. One method is the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, another method is the reaction between water and oxygen. Calculate the AGxn of each reaction using values from the table of thermodynamic properties. (1) H₂(g) + O₂(g) → H₂0₂ (1) AGixn = (2) H₂O(l) + O₂(g) ⇒ H₂O₂ (1) AGixn = Which method requires less energy under standard conditions? reaction (1) reaction (2) kJ.mol-1 kJ.mol-¹
