Using this reversible reaction, answer the following:
N2O4 <--> 2NO2
(colorless) (reddish-brown)

-As the temperature increased, what happened to the [N2O4]?

-Was the formation of reactants or products favored by the addition of heat?

-Which reaction is exothermic?

-If the change of enthalpy of this reaction when proceeding left to right is 14 kcal, which chemical equation is correct?


N2O4 <--> 2NO2 + 14 kcal
N2O4 <--> 2NO2, HR = +14 kcal
N2O4 + 14 kcal <--> 2NO2
N2O4 <--> 2NO2, HR = -14 kcal

Using this reversible reaction answer the following N2O4 ltgt 2NO2 colorless reddishbrown As the temperature increased what happened to the N2O4 Was the formati class=

Respuesta :

-Products formed by the forward 
reaction may react with each other to regenerate the reactants. 
-When reactants are mixed, they will begin to react at a forward reaction rate particular to that chemical reaction. 
- As reactants are depleted and products are formed, however, the rate of the forward reaction begins to slow, and the rate of the reverse reaction begins to increase.

Question 1.

Answer:

The concentration of [N2O4] will decrease.

Explanation:

  • As the reverse reaction which is the formation of N2O4 is an exothermic reaction and the formation of NO2 is an endothermic reaction.
  • Hence heating will favor the forward reaction and stops the reverse reaction.
  • N2O4 --> 2NO2
  • So the concentration of N2O4 decreases.

Question: 2.

Answer:

The formation of the products is favored by the addition of heat.

Explanation:

  • As the reverse reaction which is the formation of N2O4 is an exothermic reaction and the formation of NO2 is an endothermic reaction.
  • So the addition of heat will favor endothermic reaction.
  • Hence the formation of NO2 will be favored which is a product.

Question no.4:

Answer:

The reverse reaction is an exothermic reaction.

N2O4 <-- 2NO2.

Explanation:

  • N2O4 which is a reactant in this reaction is colorless compound.
  • Its breakdown absorbs energy and its formation release energy in form of heat.
  • So the reverse reaction which releases energy is an exothermic reaction.

Question no. 4

Answer:

The correct option is D which is N2O4 <--> 2NO2, HR = -14 kcal.

Explanation:

  • Enthalpy is the change in energy in reactants and products.
  • It is actually the difference in energies of products and reactant.
  • As the enthalpy change from left to right, it means reactants have internal energy 14 kcal high than products and it will be released.
  • And in option D which is shown as HR = -14 kcal.
