A chemical reaction in which the hydration energy is greater than the lattice energy is referred to as

A.

A reversible reaction

B.

A spontenous reaction

C.

An endothermic reaction

D.

An exothermic reaction

Correct answer is D

In salts for which the hydration energy is higher than the lattice energy, solvation occurs with a release of energy in the form of heat. A reaction in which there is a release of energy as LIGHT OR HEAT is EXOTHERMIC.

Calculate the volume in cm3 of oxygen evolved at s.t.p when a current of 5A is passed through acidified water for 193s?
[F = 96500 C mol1. Molar volume of a gas at s.t.p = 22.4dm3]

A.

0.056dm3

B.

0.224dm3

C.

224.000dm3

D.

56.000dm3

Correct answer is A

Q = 193 x 5 = 965C
40H 2H2O + O2 + 4e
4 x 96500C = 22.4dm3
965C = x

x = 22.4×9654×96500
= 0.056dm3
