Chapter 3, Problem 51P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The value of ΔH° involved in formation of CH3Cl and HCl should be calculated.

Concept introduction: Thermodynamics is a study of energy transfers that can be done by either heat or work. The energy transferred through work involves force. When work is positive then system gains energy while when work is negative then system loses energy. Heat is not a state function and therefore change in enthalpy of reaction (ΔH°rxn) has been introduced. The formula that ΔH° from bond dissociation of reactants and products is as follows:

  ΔH°=Sum of DH° of bonds brokenSum of DH° of bonds formed

Two of the chemicals, n-pentane and 1-butanol, had similar molecular weights but likely had significantly different t values.  Explain this difference, referring to the IMFs involved.
Consider the following data that was collected for a protein that contain 0.76 % tryptophan amino acids by weight (Molecular weight of tryptophan amino acids is 204 g/mol). Absorbance Concentration (mg/L) 0.0250 0.100 0.150 0.226 0.259 0.400 0.600 0.964 1.14 1.78 1.45 2.35 1.78 2.87 How many mg of the protein present in 1.00 L solution that shows an absorbance of 1.20?
