Sulfur dioxide, SO 2 ( g ) , can react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide, SO 3 ( g ) , by the reaction 2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 2 SO 3 ( g ) The standard enthalpies of formation for SO 2 ( g ) and SO 3 ( g ) are Δ H ∘ f [ SO 2 ( g ) ] = − 296.8 kJ / mol Δ H ∘ f [ SO 3 ( g ) ] = − 395.7 kJ / mol Calculate the amount of energy in the form of heat that is produced when a volume of 2.67 L of SO 2 ( g ) is converted to 2.67 L of SO 3 ( g ) according to this process at a constant pressure and temperature of 1.00 bar and 25.0 °C . Assume ideal gas behavior.

Explanation:

2 SO 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 2 SO 3 ( g )

The standard enthalpies of formation for SO 2 ( g ) and SO 3 ( g ) are Δ H ∘ f [ SO 2 ( g ) ] = − 296.8 kJ / mol Δ H ∘ f [ SO 3 ( g ) ] = − 395.7 kJ / mol

From the reaction above, 2 mol of SO2 reacts to produce 2 mol of SO3. Assuming ideal gas behaviour,

1 mol = 22.4l

x mol = 2.67l

Upon cross multiplication and solving for x;

x = 2.67 / 22.4 = 0.1192 mol

0.1192 mol of SO2 would react to produce 0.1192 mol of SO3.

Amount of heat is given as;

ΔHorxn = ∑mΔHof(products) − ∑nΔHof(reactants)

Because O2(g) is a pure element in its standard state, ΔHοf [O2(g)] = 0 kJ/mol.

ΔHorxn = 0.1192 mol * (− 395.7 kJ / mol) - 0.1192 mol * ( − 296.8 kJ / mol)

ΔHorxn = - 47.17kj + 35.38kj

ΔHorxn = - 11.79 KJ

water   molecules stay close to each other through cohesion, the collective action of hydrogen bonds between water molecules. cohesion plants draw water upwards from the root through the stem's transport tubes (xylem) to the leaf. this transport occurs even in large trees and against gravity. transpiration, evaporation of water from plant leaves, creates a tension on water molecules being pulled up from the stem and roots.

water also has high (the attraction of one substance to another) properties because of its polar nature. adhesion of water molecules to plant cell walls counteract gravity while water is transported from roots to leaves.

water exhibits a very high surface tension when compared to other liquids. surface tension is a property of a liquid that holds the surface together and allows it to resist an external force. by capillary action, the water forms concave menisci inside the pores. the high surface tension of water pulls the concavity outwards, generating enough force to lift water from the roots to the leaves of plants.

thus, cohesion, along with adhesion and surface tension creates a capillary action that keeps water molecules interacting and moving through the plants out to the leaf cells.

therefore, option d) is the correct answer.

explanation:

it is called acid bonding
