What volume of chlorine gas (Cl2), measured at STP, can be produced by the decomposition of 73.0g of hydrogen chloride gas (HCl), according to the balanced equation? (the other product is hydrogen gas (H2))

Explanation:

2HCl    =   H₂   +   Cl₂

2 mole     1 mole      1 mole

73 gram HCl = 73 / 36.5 = 2 mole of HCl

2 moles of HCl will produce 1 mole of chlorine gas .

At STP , one mole of chlorine gas has volume equal to 22.4 litre .

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.

the correct answer to this question is 2
