Chemistry & Chemical Reactivity
- Use data from Appendix J to calculate the enthalpy change and the Gibbs free energy change for the reduction of chromium(III) oxide by aluminum.arrow_forwardThe amount of sodium hypochlorite in a bleach solution can be determined by using a given volume of bleach to oxidize excess iodide ion to iodine; ClO- is reduced to Cl-. The amount of iodine produced by the redox reaction is determined by titration with sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3; I2 is reduced to I-. The sodium thiosulfate is oxidized to sodium tetrathionate, Na2S4O6. In this analysis, potassium iodide was added in excess to 5.00 mL of bleach (d=1.00g/cm3) . If 25.00 mL of 0.0700 M Na2S2O3 was required to reduce all the iodine produced by the bleach back to iodide, what is the mass percent of NaClO in the bleach?arrow_forwardComparing the chemistry of carbon and silicon. (a) Write balanced chemical equations for the reactions of H2O() with CH4 (forming CO2 and H2) and SiH4 (forming SiO2 and H2). (b) Using thermodynamic data, calculate the standard free energy change for the reactions in (a). Is either reaction product-favored at equilibrium? (c) Look up the electronegativities of carbon, silicon, and hydrogen. What conclusion can you draw concerning the polarity of CH and SiH bonds? (d) Carbon and silicon compounds with the formulas (CH3)2CO (acetone) and [(CH3)2SiO]n (a silicone polymer) also have quite different structures. Draw Lewis structures for these species. This difference, along with the difference between structures of CO2 and SiO2, suggests a general observation about silicon compounds. Based on that observation, do you expect that a silicon compound with a structure similar to ethene (C2H4) exists?arrow_forward
- Identify the halide ions that are more easily oxidized than H2O(l) in acidic solution.arrow_forwardA major source of sodium metal is the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride. What magnitude of current is required to produce 1.0 kg of sodium metal in one hour?arrow_forwardWrite the expression for the equilibrium constant Kc for the following equation. FeO(s) + CO(g) ↔ Fe(s) + CO2(g)arrow_forward
- Solid gold (III) oxide undergoes a thermal decomposition reaction to form gold metal and oxygen gas. This reaction will go to completion without the need for a catalyst like MnO2 with potassium chlorate. Based on this information, which element, gold or chlorine, more readily is reduced in these reactions? Explain.arrow_forwardExplain, using Le Châtelier’s principle, why the equilibrium constant for the formation of NO from N2 and O2 increases with increasing temperature?arrow_forward
