- Determine rxnH 25 C for the following reaction: NO g O2 g NO2 g This reaction is a major participant in the formation of smog.arrow_forwardComplete each of these reactions by filling in the blanks. Predict whether each reaction is product-favored or reactant-favored, and explain your reasoning. (a) (aq)+HSO4(aq)HCN(aq)+SO42(aq) (b) H2S (aq) + H2O() H3O+(aq) + _____ (aq) (c) H(aq) + H2O() OH(aq) +_____ (g)arrow_forwardThe 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?arrow_forward
- Silicon forms a series of compounds analogous to the al-kanes and having the general formula SinH2n+2. The first of these compounds is silane, SiH4, which is used in the electronics industry to produce thin ultrapure silicon films. SiH4(g) is somewhat difficult to work with because it is py-ropboric at room temperature—meaning that it bursts into flame spontaneously when exposed to air. (a) Write an equation for the combustion of SiH4(g). (The reaction is analogous to hydrocarbon combustion, and SiO2 is a solid under standard conditions. Assume the water produced will be a gas.) (b) Use the data from Appendix E to calculate ? for this reaction. (c) Calculate G and show that the reaction is spontaneous at 25°C. (d) Compare G for this reaction to the combustion of methane. (See the previous problem.) Are the reactions in these two exercises enthalpy or entropy driven? Explain.arrow_forwardIndicate to which of the following types of reactions each of the statements listed applies: combination, decomposition, displacement, exchange, and combustion. More than one answer is possible for a given statement. a. An element may be a reactant. b. An element may be a product. c. A compound may be a reactant. d. A compound may be a product.arrow_forwardCalcium carbide, CaC2, is manufactured by reducing lime with carbon at high temperature. (The carbide is used in turn to make acetylene, an industrially important organic chemical.) Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?arrow_forward

If you need to include any physical constants, be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator. Karrow_forwardWhich of the following reaction would take place? Sn + Fe(NO3)2 → Sn(NO3)2 + Fe Zn + Sr(NO3)2 → Zn(NO3)2 + Sr 2Al + 3Cu(NO3)2 → 2Al(NO3)3 + 3Cu 2Ag + Mg(NO3)2 → 2AgNO3 + Mgarrow_forward
- Anna was asked to identify and explain if the equation CO2 (l) → CO2 (g) was an endothermic or exothermic reaction. However she got it wrong. What is her error and what should the answer have been? Anna's statement: The equation is an exothermic reaction because the energy is released from liquid CO2 to the surroundings to become gaseous CO2 causing the molecules to slow down.arrow_forward1 2 3 I 4 | 5 Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda or bicarbonate of soda, is a quick-acting antacid used to treat heartburn, indigestion, and upset stomach.
