A 3.81-gram sample of NaHCO3 was completely decomposed in an experiment. 2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2CO3

In this experiment, carbon dioxide and water vapors combine to form H2CO3. After decomposition, the Na2CO3 had a mass of 2.86 grams.

A: Determine the mass of the H2CO3 produced.

B: Calculate the percentage yield of H2CO3 for the reaction. Show your work or describe the calculation process in detail.

answer: the enthalpy of the overall chemical reaction is +87.88 kj or +88 kj.

according to hess's law, the overall enthalpy of a reaction is the difference between the sum of enthalpy values of all the products and the sum of enthalpy values of all the reactants.

δh(reaction) = ∑nδh(products) - ∑nδh(reactants)

δh(reaction) = [δh +δh] - [δh]

δh(reaction) = [1(-287.02) + 1(0) ] - [1(-374.9)] kj = +87.88 kj

here, δh (pcl3) = -287.02 kj, δh(cl2) = 0, δh(pcl5) = -374.9 kj

therefore, enthalpy of the overall reaction is +87.88 kj or +88 kj.

it means there are 3 atoms of oxygen
