[Assume - Ideal gas; 1 bar = 105 Pa; Molar mass of N2 = 28.0 g mol$-$1; R = 8.31 J mol$-$1 K$-$1]
Explanation:
$\Rightarrow$ Assuming the system attains a final temperature of T (such that 300 < T < 60)
$\Rightarrow$ $\left( {\matrix{ {Heat\,lost\,by} \cr {{N_2}\,of\,container} \cr I \cr } } \right) = \left( {\matrix{ {Heat\,gained\,by} \cr {{N_2}\,of\,container} \cr {II} \cr } } \right)$
$\Rightarrow$ n1Cm(300 $-$ T) = nIICm(T $-$ 60)
$ \Rightarrow \left( {{{2.8} \over {28}}} \right)(300 - T) = {{0.2} \over {28}}(T - 60)$
$\Rightarrow$ 14(300 $-$ T) = T $-$ 60
$\Rightarrow$ ${{(14 \times 300 + 60)} \over {15}} = T$
$\Rightarrow$ T = 284 K (final temperature)
$\Rightarrow$ If the final pressure = P
$\Rightarrow$ (nI + nII)final = $\left( {{{3.0} \over {28}}} \right)$
$\Rightarrow$${P \over {RT}}({V_I} + {V_{II}}) = {{3.0\,gm} \over {28\,gm/mol}}$
$P = \left( {{3 \over {28}}mol} \right) \times 8.31{J \over {mol - K}} \times {{284K} \over {3 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}{m^3}}} \times {10^{ - 5}}{{bar} \over {Pa}}$

The enthalpy of sublimation is the total amount of energy required to convert a solid directly into a gas. This can be calculated by summing the enthalpy of fusion (solid to liquid) and the enthalpy of vaporization (liquid to gas). Mathematically, this relationship is represented as:
$ \Delta H_{\text{sublimation}} = \Delta H_{\text{fusion}} + \Delta H_{\text{vaporization}} $
Given:
Enthalpy of fusion, $\Delta H_{\text{fusion}} = 2.8 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
Enthalpy of vaporization, $\Delta H_{\text{vaporization}} = 98.2 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1}$
Substitute these values into the equation:
$ \Delta H_{\text{sublimation}} = 2.8 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1} + 98.2 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1} = 101.0 \, \text{kJ mol}^{-1} $
Therefore, the enthalpy of sublimation of the substance (X) is approximately 101 kJ mol$-1$.

$\left[\therefore E_{S-F}=\right.$ Average $S-\mathrm{F}$ bond energy in $\left.\mathrm{SF}_6\right]$
$275+6 \times 80=-1100+6 \times E_{S-F}$
$\Rightarrow E_{S-F}=\frac{275+6 \times 80+1100}{6}$ $=309.16 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}=309 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~m}^{-1}$
(${\Delta _r}{H^\Theta }$ = 80 kJ mol$-$1) the entropy change ${\Delta _r}{S^\Theta }$ depends on the temperature T (in K) as ${\Delta _r}{S^\Theta }$ = 2T (J K$-$1mol$-$1).
Minimum temperature at which it will become spontaneous is ___________ K. (Integer)
Explanation:
For a reaction to be spontaneous
$\Delta G^\circ < 0$
$ \Rightarrow $ $\Delta H^\circ - T\Delta S^\circ < 0$
$ \Rightarrow $ $T > {{\Delta H^\circ } \over {\Delta S^\circ }}$
$ \Rightarrow $ $T > {{80000} \over {2T}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ 2T2 > 80000
$ \Rightarrow $ T2 > 40000
$ \Rightarrow $ T > 200
The minimum temperature to make it spontaneous is 200 K.
Explanation:
$\Delta $E = (Ea)f – (Ea)b
$ \Rightarrow $ – 20 = 30 – (Ea)b
$ \Rightarrow $ (Ea)b = 50 kJ
Explanation:
The gas performs isothermal irreversible work (W).
where, $\Delta$U = 0 (change in internal energy)
From, 1st law of thermodynamics,
$\Rightarrow$ $\Delta$U = $\Delta$Q + W
$\Rightarrow$ 0 = $\Delta$Q + W
$\Rightarrow$ $\Delta$Q = $-$W
Now, $W = - {p_{ext}}({V_2} - {V_1})$
$ = - {p_{ext}}\left( {{{nRT} \over {{p_2}}} - {{nRT} \over {{p_1}}}} \right) = - {p_{ext}} \times nRT\left( {{1 \over {{p_2}}} - {1 \over {{p_1}}}} \right)$
Given, pext = 4.3 MPa, p1 = 2.1 MPa, p2 = 1.3 MPa, n = 5 mol, T = 293 K and R = 8.314 J mol$-$1 K$-$1
$ = - 4.3 \times 5 \times 8.314 \times 293\left( {{1 \over {1.3}} - {1 \over {2.1}}} \right)$
= $-$ 15347.70 J mol$-$1
= $-$ 15.347 kJ mol$-$1 $ \simeq $ $-$ 15 kJ mol$-$1
$\Rightarrow$ $\Delta$Q = 15 kJ mol$-$1
$N{H_2}C{H_{(S)}} + {3 \over 2}{O_{2(g)}} \to {N_{2(g)}} + {O_{2(g)}} + {H_2}{O_{(I)}}$
is _________ kJ. (Rounded off to the nearest integer) [Assume ideal gases and R = 8.314 J mol$-$1 K$-$1]
Explanation:
$\Delta ng = (1 + 1) - {3 \over 2} = {1 \over 2}$
$\Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta ng\,RT$
$ = - 742.24 + {1 \over 2} \times {{8.314 \times 298} \over {1000}}$
$ = - 742.24 + 1.24$
$ = -741$ kJ/mol
Explanation:
$\Delta H = 495.8$
${1 \over 2}B{r_2}(l) + {e^ - }\buildrel {} \over \longrightarrow B{r^ - }(g)$
$\Delta H = 325$
$N{a^ + }(g) + B{r^ - }(g)\buildrel {} \over \longrightarrow NaBr(s)$
$\Delta H = - 728.4$
$Na(s) + {1 \over 2}B{r_2}(l)\buildrel {} \over \longrightarrow NaBr(s).$
$\Delta H = ?$
$\Delta H = 495.8 - 325 - 728.4 - 557.6$ kJ
$ = - 5576 \times {10^{ - 1}}$ kJ
$3HC \equiv C{H_{(g)}} \rightleftharpoons {C_6}{H_{6(l)}}$
[Given : ${\Delta _f}{G^o}(HC \equiv CH) = - 2.04 \times {10^5}$ J mol$-$1 ; ${\Delta _f}{G^o}({C_6}{H_6}) = - 1.24 \times {10^5}$ J mol$-$1 ; R = 8.314 J K-1 mol$-$1]
Explanation:
$\mathop {3HC \equiv CH(g)}\limits_{Acetylene} \to \mathop {{C_6}{H_6}(l)}\limits_{Benzene} $
Given, $\Delta G_f^o (CH \equiv CH) = - 2.04 \times {10^5}$ J mol$-$1
$\Delta G_f^o({C_6}{H_6}) = - 1.24 \times {10^5}$ J mol$-$1
Gibb's free energy, $\Delta G_f^o = - nRT\ln K$
$\Delta G_f^o = \sum {{{(\Delta G_F^o)}_P} - \sum {{{(\Delta G_F^o)}_R}} } $
$ - nRT\ln K = - n'RT\ln {K_p} - ( - n''RT\ln {K_f})$
$ \Rightarrow - RT\ln K = 1 \times ( - 1.24 \times {10^5}) - ( - 3 \times 2.04 \times {10^5}) $
$ \Rightarrow $ $- 2.303 \times R \times T\log K = 4.88 \times {10^5}$
$ \Rightarrow $ $\log K = - {{4.88 \times {{10}^5}} \over {2.303 \times 8.314 \times 273}}$
$ \Rightarrow $ $n\ln K = n'\ln {K_p} - ( - n''ln{K_f})$
$ \Rightarrow $ K = 85.52
$\Rightarrow$ K = 855 $\times$ 10$-$1
x = 855
