How much energy (at constant temperature and pressure) must be supplied as heat to 10.0 g of chlorine gas (as Cl2) to produce a plasma composed of Cl- and Cl+ ions? The enthalpy of ionization of Cl(g) is +12575 kJ mol-1 and its electron gain enthalpy is -349 kJ mol-1. Hence identify the standardenthalpy of ionization of Cl- (g).
1.1 mole of O₂ (g) and 2.2 moles of N₂ (g) are spontaneously mixed in a cylinder (volume = 30.0 L)
with a movable piston. Assume both gases are ideal.
(a)
Explain why the mixing of O₂ and N₂ gases is spontaneous in term of chemical
potential.
(b)
Calculate the final pressure (in N m2) of mixture when
(i) the mixing occurs isothermally at 298 K;
(ii) the initial temperatures of O₂ (g) and N₂ (g) are 306 K and 367 K, respectively, and after
mixing, the temperature is equilibrated. State any assumption(s) in your calculations.
(c)
) Now, the mixture in (b)(ii) is expanded isothermally and the external pressure is
suddenly decreased to a final pressure of 890 Torr, determine whether the process is reversible or
not.
In the reaction 2A (g) + B(g)==>2C(g) + D(g), 3.00 mol A was mixed with 2 mol of B and 0.5 mol of D. The system was allowed to come to equilibrium. At equilibrium, 1.2 mol of C was present at a total pressure of 1 bar. Calculate the mole fractions of each species at equilibrium, K, and ΔGr at 298 K.
