2 SO3 (g) → 2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g) A sample of 2.0 mole of SO3 (g) is placed into an evacuated 2.0 L container and heated to 700K. The reaction occurs and the concentration of SO3 (g) as a function of time is shown in the graph below. Sorry the graph will not copy but is shows that SO3 at equilibrium is 0.4 mol/L
a) Determine the equilibrium concentrations of
SO2 (g) and O2 (g)
b) Calculate the value of the Kc and Kp equilibriumconstants for the reaction

For all cycles in this section, assume that you have exactly 1.000 moles of gas and that the cycle is run reversibly. The known state parameters for the cycle will be given as the reduced temperature Tr ≡ T /Tc and reduced pressure Pr ≡ P/Pc, where Tc and Pc are the critical temperature and pressure of assigned diatomic molecule (N2). Assume the gas is a diatomic van der Waals gas.
1. You have a Carnot cycle that begins with an adiabatic expansion from an initial state defined by a temperature of Tr = 1.75 and a pressure of Pr = 2.00 to a pressure of Pr = 1.75. The system then undergoes an isothermal expansion to a pressure of Pr = 1.25, followed by an adiabatic compression and then an isothermal compression back to the initial state. Calculate w, q, ∆U, ∆S, ∆Ssur, ∆H, ∆A and ∆G for each step in the cycle and for the total cycle.
(entropy S, enthalpy H, Gibbs energy G, and Helmholtz energy A.)

suppose that you repeated PART B of the experiment using 1M HNO3(aq). How would you expect the △Hneut to compare with that for the neutralization of HCL? explain.
△H = Hfinal - Hinitial = qp = △E + P △V
PART B - Enthalpy of Neutralization of a Stong Acid
The heat of neutralization of a strong acid, hydrochloric acid, will be determined. The strong base is sodium hydroxide of a concentration slightly less than that of the acid.
Procedure
1.In a clean dry graduated cylinder, measure out exactly 50 mL of the NaOH solution and transfer completely to the clean dry calorimeter. Record this temperature and the concentration of the NaOH solution.
2.Meanwhile, rinse out the graduated cylinder with tap water, distilled water and a few mL of the HCl solution. Measure out 50 mL of the HCl solution. Allow it to stand until its temperature is constant and equal to room temperature. Record this temperature and the concentration of the acid solution.
3.Add the acid as quickly as possible to the calorimeter, counting the time from the addition of the first drop of acid. Note the time and temperature after the addition of the last drop, and at 15 sec intervals from then on for 4 minutes. Stir the contents of the calorimeter constantly.
4.Test the contents of the calorimeter with litmus paper. The solution should be slightly acidic(pH<7.0), indicating that the known amount of base was completely consumed in the neutralization

If you use a strong base in high concentration to run the benzoin condensation, you will probably find that the product is not benzoin, but rather benzoic acid and benzyl alcohol. What has happened is that the Cannizzaro reaction has occured. How is this similar to the benzoin condensation? (research the mechanism and note what is similar/different)

65. Because carbon and silicon are both elements in group 14 on the periodic table, we expect them to react with other elements in similar ways. To some extent, then do, but in some cases, carbon and silicon compounds that seem to have analogous structures have very different chemical characteristics. For example, carbon tetrachloride, CCl4 is very stable in the presence of water, but silicon tetrachloride, CCl4, reacts quickly with water. The unbalanced equation for this reaction is
SiCl4 + H2O à Si(OH)4 + HCl
