What is the change in entropy when 7.61 ml of liquid benzene (c6h6, d = 0.879 g/ml) is combusted in the presence of 22.3 l of oxygen gas, measured at 298 k and 1 atm pressure? (r = 0.0821 l · atm/(k · mol)) 2c6h6(l) + 15o2(g) → 12co2(g) + 6h2o(l); δs° = –437.7 j/k at 298 k a. 436 j/k b. 37.4 j/k c. 398 j/k d. 45.3 j/k e. 18.7 j/k

option e, 18.7 J/K

Explanation:

Volume of C6H6 = 7.61 mL

Density of C6H6 = 0.879 g/mol

No. of mol = Mass in g/Molecular mass

No. of mol of benzene = 6.69/78 = 0.086 mol

Volume of oxygen = 22.3 L

No. of moles of oxygen will be calculated using PV = nRT

Where,

P = 1 atm, V = 22.3 L, R = 0.0821 L · atm/(K · mol, T = 298 K

n = PV/RT

From reaction stoichiometry,

2 moles of benzene react with 15 moles of O2

0.086 mole of benzene will react with

                        mol of O2

Since, 0.911 mol of O2 is present in reaction mixture, therefore O2 will not be the limiting reagent.

So the limiting reagent of the reaction will ne C6H6.

2 moles of C6H6 reacts with O2, then change in entropy is –437.7 J/K

0.086 mole of C6H6 reacts with O2 and change in entropy

so, the correct will be option e.

no, the red giant is the hottest with 2.00.000.000 degrees celsius. while the white dwarf only 25,000 degrees celsius.

cytokinesis is the splitting of a cell membrane to form 2 identical daughter cells. it's similar to mitosis as both cells have identical copies of dna and cytokinesis is a step in the mitotic cycle.
