![### Energy Evolution in the Reaction of H₂S and O₂
When hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) reacts with oxygen (O₂) to form water (H₂O) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂), 124 kcal of energy are evolved for each mole of H₂S that reacts.
**Task:**
Write a balanced equation for the reaction with an energy term in kcal as part of the equation.
**Instructions:**
Use the smallest integer coefficients possible and put the energy term in an appropriate box. If a box is not needed, leave it blank.
**Balanced Equation:**
\[ \boxed{2} \text{H}_2\text{S(g)} + \boxed{3} \text{O}_2\text{(g)} + \boxed{ } \rightarrow \boxed{2} \text{H}_2\text{O(g)} + \boxed{2} \text{SO}_2\text{(g)} + \boxed{124} \text{ kcal} \]
This balanced equation shows that 2 moles of hydrogen sulfide gas react with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of water vapor and 2 moles of sulfur dioxide gas, releasing 124 kcal of energy.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/a527ffdc-16df-4a1f-9953-96956a75d05e/ed8828dd-0476-4520-9202-9461a09aca01/3jqytq_thumbnail.png)

- Write and balance the equation for the complete combustion of heptane, C7H16.C7H16. Phase symbols and energy changes are optional.arrow_forwardDry ice is solid carbon dioxide. Instead of melting, solid carbondioxide sublimes according to the equation:CO2(s) ------------>CO2(g) When dry ice is added to warm water, heat from the water causesthe dry ice to sublime more quickly. The evaporating carbon dioxide produces a dense fog often used to create special effects. In a simple dry ice fog machine, dry ice is added to warm water in a Styrofoam cooler. The dryice produces fog until it evaporates away, or until the water gets too cold to sublime the dry ice quickly enough. A small Styrofoam cooler holds15.0 L of water heated to 85°C. Use standard enthalpies of formation to calculate the change in enthalpy for dry ice sublimation, and calculate themass of dry ice that should be added to the water so that the dry ice completely sublimes away when the water reaches 25 °C. Assume no heat loss to the surroundings. (The ∆H°f for CO2(s) is -427.4 kJ/mol.) How do I do this?arrow_forwardA reaction between Mg and aqueous hydrochloric acid was performed to determine the heat of the reaction. A calorimeter with a heat capacity of 6.5 J/K was used. To the calorimeter 50.0 mL of 1.0 M HCI was added, the initial temperature was recorded and then 0.250 g of magnesium metal was added. The final temperature was then recorded. (Assume density of the solution is 1.03 g/mL; q = MCAT ; molar mass Mg = 24.31 g/mol; specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.K; q calorimeter = heat capacity x AT). The following data was recorded:Initial temperature:21.5°c ; Final Temperature: 45.1°c Calculate calorimeter (J) q solution (J) total amount of heat released (J), mol Mg, enthalpy of reaction in kJ/molor (q total/mol Mg). Just put the numerical values since units are already indicated. For the question, amount of heat released, there is no need to put the negative sign.arrow_forward
