For which equation, does the enthalpy of reaction represent $DeltaH_f^@$ for methanol? $1.$ $CO(g) + 2H_2(g) rarr CH_3OH(l)$ $2.$ $C(g) + 2H_2O(g) rarr CH_3OH(l)+1/2H_2(g)$ $3.$ $C(s) + 2H_2(g) +1/2O_2(g) rarr CH_3OH(l)$ $4.$ $C(g) + 2H_2(g) rarr CH_3OH$

The standard of formation is the enthalpy associated with the formation of 1 mole of substance from its constituent in their standard states under specified conditions. And of course the standard states of the given elements are as carbon graphite, dihydrogen, and dioxygen gas.

And thus, the enthalpy of formation of methanol is the enthalpy associated with the following reaction:

$C(s) + 2H_2(g) + 1/2O_2(g) rarr CH_3OH(l) +DeltaH_f^@$

I included the enthalpy term, because typically this definition is used in thermochemical scenarios.

Which equation is correctly balanced: $A.$ $Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $B.$ $Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $C.$ $Al(s) + 3/2O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s);$ $D.$ $2Al(s) + 3O_2(g) rarr 2Al_2O_3(s)?$

Alumina is $Al_2O_3$, which is the product of aluminum oxidation. None of your equations shows the correct formulae. We can rewrite the correct equation as: $2Al(s)+ 3/2O_2(g) rarr Al_2O_3(s)$ This...

Methane bums in oxygen to yield carbon dioxide and water. The chemical formula for this reaction is $CH_4 + 2O_2 -> CO_2 + 2H_2O$. What is the product, or what are the products, of this reaction?

And there is another reaction product; combustion of hydrocarbons leads to the production of heat, that we can use to do work: $CH_4(g)+2O_2(g) rarr CO_2(g) + 2H_2O(l) + Delta$

Why don't we write $K(s) + 2H_2O(l)rarr K(OH)_2(aq) + 1/2H_2(g)$?

$"Potassium metal"$ is oxidized by water to give $"potassium hydroxide"$ and $"dihydrogen gas"$: $K(s) +H_2O(l) rarr KOH(aq) + 1/2H_2(g) uarr$ And given the experiment, we would find half an equiv...

What type of chemical reaction is $CH_4 + 2O_2 -> CO_2 + 2H_2O$?

While this is certainly an example of combustion, the reaction falls under the more general class of . Oxygen gas is reduced to oxide (i.e. $O^(2-)$). Carbon (as $C^(-IV)$) is...

The fuel methanol ($CH_3OH$) is made by the reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. What is the balanced chemical equation? How many grams of hydrogen are needed to produce 45.0 grams of methanol?

The balanced equation is: $2H_2+CO to CH_3OH$. One C, one O and 4 H on each side. The molar mass of methanol is $12+4+16=32$ $gmol^-1$ Number of moles: $n=m/M=45/32=1.41$ $mol$...

What is the mole fraction of methanol in a solution that contains 6.0 mol of methanol and 3.0 mol of water? The formula for methanol is $CH_3OH$.

$chi_"MeOH"$ $=$ $"Moles of MeOH"/"Moles of methanol + moles of water"$ $(6.0*mol)/((6.0+3.0)*mol)=2/3$ as required............. What is the $"mole fraction of water?"$

Given the balanced equation representing the reaction between methane and oxygen: $CH_4 + 2O_2 -> CO_2 + 2H_2O$. According to this equation, what is the mole ratio of oxygen to methane?

$CH_4(g) + 2O_2(g) rarr CO_2(g) + 2H_2O(l)$ The equation explicitly tells us that one equivalent of methane gas reacts with two equiv of dioxygen to give one equiv of carbon...

How does ammonia behave as a Bronsted base: $"(i) "NH_3(g) + 7/2O_2(g) rarr 2NO_2(g) + 3H_2O$ $"(ii) "2NH_3(g) rarr NH_4^+ +NH_2^(-) $ $"(iii) "NH_3(g) + H_3CBr(g) rarr H_3CBr(g) + HBr(g)$ $"(iv) "NH_3(aq) +H_2O(l) rarr NH_4^+ + HO^-$?

Ammonia is a Bronsted base: $NH_3(aq) + H_2O(l) rightleftharpoons NH_4^+ + OH^-$ $pK_b = 4.75$ I am not going to solve this equation using $pK_b$, but most of the ammonia...

When 2 moles of $H_2(g)$ and 1 mole of $O_2(g)$ react to give liquid water, 572 kJ of heat evolve. $2H_2(g)$ + $O_2(g)$ $rarr$ $2H_2O(l)$ ; $DeltaH$ = -572 kJ a) What is the themochemical eq. for 1 mole of liquid water?

You know that when $2$ moles of hydrogen gas react with $1$ mole of oxygen gas, you get $2$ moles of water and $"572 kJ"$ of heat are evolved....

In the reaction $CH_4 + 2O_2 -> 2H_2O$ $+$ energy $+ CO_2$, which is reduced and which is oxidized?
