Propane and Chlorine react in the presence of UV light to give 2-chloropropane and HCl. Estimate the enthalpy change of this reaction using the following bond enthaplies (KJ/mol) : C-H=+413, Cl-Cl=+243, C-Cl=+346 and H-Cl=+432.

  1. Write equation, ensuring both sides are balanced.CH3CH2CH3 + Cl2 → CH3CH(Cl)CH3 + HCl (2.) Draw structural formula of all reactants ...

How does increasing/decreasing temperature affect the equilibrium position of the following reaction: CuSO4.5H2O(s) ⇌ CuSO4(s) + H2O(l) ?

The endothermic and exothermic reactions should be identified. Note: if the forward reaction is endothermic, the reverse reaction will be exothermic with the same ΔH but opposite values.In this example: t...

The ionic product of water, Kw = 2.93 × 10−15 mol dm−6 at 10 °C. Calculate the pH of a 0.0131 mol dm−3 solution of calcium hydroxide at 10 °C Give your answer to two decimal places.

[OH-] = 0.0262 mol dm-3[H+] = (Kw/[OH-]) = 2.93 x 10−15 / 0.0262 (= 1.118 x 10−13) pH = (− log (1.118 x 10−13) = 12.9514 = 12.95
