- (a) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the combustion of 1 mol of benzene, C6H61l2, to CO21g2 and H2O1l2.(b) Compare the quantity of heat produced by combustion of 1.00 g propane with that produced by 1.00 g benzene.arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula for the one constitutional isomer of the unbranched alkane C7H16 in which the longest carbon chain has 4 atoms. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one.arrow_forwardThis question is about the chemistry of alkenes, which are unsaturated hydrocarbons. (a) State what is meant by the term unsaturated as applied to a hydrocarbon. (1) (b) An organic compound, X, is an unsaturated hydrocarbon with molecular formula CH₂. (i) Draw the displayed formulae and give the names of two molecules with molecular formula C₂H, which are E/Z isomers. (3) Isomer 1 Isomer 2 Name: Name:arrow_forward
- ) The reaction of hydroxide ion with chloromethane to yield methanol and chloride ion is an example of a general reaction type called a nucleophilic substitution reaction: HO¯ + CH;CI = CH;OH + CI¯ The value of AHº for the reaction is -75 kJ/mol, and the value of ASº is +54 J/ (K- mol). What is the value of AG° (in kJ/mol) at 298 K? Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? Is it exergonic or endergonic?arrow_forward(5) One of Prof Cunningham's former students wrote his doctoral dissertation about a new technology to clean up soil contaminated by certain types of chemicals. One of the chemicals we tested in the lab was 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene (TECB). (a) Draw the chemical structure of 1,2,4,5-tetrachlorobenzene. (b) When we started working on the project, we thought maybe TeCB would be de- stroyed according to first-order kinetics, but we weren't sure. Below are two tables of actual data that the student collected in the laboratory. The two data sets were collected under different experimental conditions. For each of the two experiments, determine if the disappearance of TeCB is zero-order, first-order, second-order, or something else. Specify the value of the rate constant (ko, k1, or k2, as appropriate). Be sure to give the right units of k! Table 1: Concentration of TECB vs. time, experiment 1 time (min) Conc.
