- Chlorine dioxide, ClO2, is a reddish yellow gas used in bleaching paper pulp. The average speed of a ClO2 molecule at 25C is 306 m/s. What is the kinetic energy (in joules) of a ClO2 molecule moving at this speed?arrow_forward53. The combustion of glucose, CH1,O, forms carbon dioxide gas and water vapour. When a 1.00 g sample of glucose was burned, it raised the temperature 100.0 mL of water by 37.0 °C. (5.2, 5.3, 5.5) AA (a) Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. (b) Use AH to calculate the enthalpy change of this of reaction. (c) Use bond energies in Table 1 on page 307 to calculate the enthalpy change of this reaction. The structural formula of glucose is shown in Figure 1.arrow_forwardAccording to the given reactions, which of the following is not exothermic?

- 6.(0-2) Black powder was invented in China in the 9th century. It was used as an explosive with propelling properties. Today it is used in fireworks, model rocket engines, and replica black powder weapons. Black powder consists of potassium nitrate (potassium nitrate, KN03), charcoal and sulfur. A variety of chemical reactions take place when this mixture is exploded. One of these is shown below. 2KNO, +S+ 30 → K, S+N, ↑+3C0, 1 Knowing that carbon makes up 15% of the black powder, calculate the total volume of gases (under normal conditions) released when 0.1 kg of black powder explodes. Assume that only the chemical reaction given above occurs.arrow_forward2. 13.9 g of ammonium nitrate is dissolved in a total volume of 225 mL in a coffee cup calorimeter. If the initial temperature of the water is 27.0 °C, what will the final temperature of the solution be if the heat of solution of ammonium nitrate is 25.7 kJ/mol? Density of the solution is 1.02 g/mL, the specific heat is approximately 4.17 J/g.ºC, and the molar mass of ammonium nitrate is 80.043 g/mol.arrow_forward(Q6) Nitroglycerine combustion takes place in a bomb calorimeter that is insulated by 639.6 grams of water. Given that the specific heat of the bomb calorimeter is 1,015 J/°C, and the temperature of the water increased by 38.04 °C, how much heat (in kJ) was released as a result of the combustion?
