Consider the following unbalanced oxidation-reduction reactions in aqueous solution: $$ \begin{aligned} \mathrm{Ag}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{Li}(s) & \longrightarrow \mathrm{Ag}(s)+\mathrm{Li}^{+}(a q) \\ \mathrm{Fe}(s)+\mathrm{Na}^{+}(a q) & \longrightarrow \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}(a q)+\mathrm{Na}(s) \\ \mathrm{K}(s)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l) & \longrightarrow \mathrm{KOH}(a q)+\mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \end{aligned} $$ (a) Balance each of the reactions. (b) By using data in Appendix C, calculate \(\Delta H^{\circ}\) for each of the reactions. (c) Based on the values you obtain for \(\Delta H^{\circ}\), which of the reactions would you expect to be thermodynamically favored? (That is, which would you expect to be spontaneous?) (d) Use the activity series to predict which of these reactions should occur. ono (Section 4.4) Are these results in accord with your conclusion in part (c) of this problem?
How many grams of methane \(\left[\mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)\right]\) must be combusted to heat \(1.00 \mathrm{~kg}\) of water from \(25.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(90.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), assuming \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)\) as a product and \(100 \%\) efficiency in heat transfer?
Ethanol \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}\right)\) is currently blended with gasoline as an automobile fuel. (a) Write a balanced equation for the combustion of liquid ethanol in air. (b) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction, assuming \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)\) as a product. (c) Calculate the heat produced per liter of ethanol by combustion of ethanol under constant pressure. Ethanol has a density of \(0.789 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}\) (d) Calculate the mass of \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) produced per \(\mathrm{kJ}\) of heat emitted.
At \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) (approximately room temperature) the average velocity of \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) molecules in air is \(1050 \mathrm{mph}\). (a) What is the average speed in \(\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}\) ? (b) What is the kinetic energy (in J) of an \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) molecule moving at this speed? (c) What is the total kinetic energy of \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) molecules moving at this speed?
(a) Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a \(45-\mathrm{g}\) golf ball moving at \(61 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). (b) Convert this energy to calories. (c) What happens to this energy when the ball lands in a sand trap?
