Quiz 17: How Chemicals React

Steel wool wetted with vinegar is stuffed into a narrow mouth round glass bottle.A rubber balloon is then sealed over the mouth of the bottle.After several hours,the balloon inflates into the bottle in an inverted manner.What happened? A)Vinegar fumes are diamagnetic and as they accumulate above the liquid the steel wool is attracted thus inflating the balloon into the mouth of the bottle in an inverted manner. B)The caustic vinegar fumes get past the steel wool and deteriorate the balloon,which begins to sag into the bottle and inflate it in an inverted manner. C)The vinegar reacts with the steel wool by absorbing oxygen within the bottle thus decreasing the pressure.The greater outside pressure causes the balloon to inflate in an inverted manner. D)False! The balloon inflates above the mouth of the bottle because the reaction between the vinegar and steel wool produces a gas which is forced upward because of increased pressure inside the sealed bottle.

Use the bond energies below to determine whether the following reaction is exothermic or endothermic: + → 2 HCl H-H (bond energy: 436 kJ/mol) Cl-Cl (bond energy: 243 kJ/mol) H-Cl (bond energy: 431 kJ/mol) A)Exothermic with more than 50 kJ of energy released. B)Endothermic with more than 50 kJ of energy absorbed. C)Exothermic with less than 50 kJ of energy released. D)Endothermic with less than 50 kJ of energy absorbed.

How much energy,in kilojoules,is released or absorbed from the reaction of one mole of nitrogen, ,with three moles of molecular hydrogen, ,to form two moles of ammonia,N ? H-N (bond energy: 389 kJ/mol) H-H (bond energy: 436 kJ/mol) N N (bond energy: 946 kJ/mol) N N + H-H + H-H → N + N A)+899 kJ/mol absorbed B)-993 kJ/mol released C)+80 kJ/mol absorbed D)-80 kj/mol released

Which of the following statements best describes the concept of entropy? A)Energy has a tendency to disperse. B)Energy is neither created nor destroyed. C)The entropy of the universe is constantly decreasing. D)The energy released in a chemical reaction is the same as the difference in the energy of the bonds broken and formed. E)Energy has a tendency to remain in one place.

What role does entropy play in chemical reactions? A)The entropy determines how much product will actually be produced. B)The entropy change determines whether the reaction will be exothermic or endothermic. C)The entropy change determines whether the reaction will occur spontaneously or not. D)The entropy change determines whether or not the chemical reaction is favorable.

Why does iodine, (s),spontaneously sublime at room temperature? A)The contact of iodine, (s),with the water vapor in the air causes the sublimation process. B)Iodine, (s),pulls from the air as it self-oxidizes under sublimation to (g). C)There is an increase in entropy as solid iodine, (s),sublimes into iodine vapor, (g),because in the gaseous phase energy is more readily dispersed. D)The reaction of (s)subliming to

Wild plants readily grow "all by themselves" yet the molecules of the growing plant have less entropy than the materials used to make the plant.How is it possible for a there to be this decrease in entropy for a process that occurs all by itself? A)A decrease in entropy does not necessarily mean that a reaction if favored to proceed on its own.It happens in this instance but not in others. B)There is no decrease in entropy when wild plants grow.All growing plants tend to display an increase in entropy. C)Wild plants don't grow "all by themselves." When we consider the entire system,including the sun,we find an overall increase in entropy. D)Life on Earth "arises on its own." It does not depend on entropy processes.

Entropy helps to explain A)the forward motion of time. B)the cause of a chemical reaction. C)sunsets. D)photosynthesis. E)All of the above.

The concept of entropy tells us how exothermic reactions are A)favored over endothermic reactions. B)not as favorable as endothermic reactions. C)just as effective as endothermic reactions. D)the reverse of endothermic reactions.
