Calculation of the volume of hydrogen released under NTP.
`2Al +2NaOH + 2H_(2)O to underset("aluminate")underset("sod.meta")(2NaAlO_(2)) +underset((3xx22700))(3H_(2))`
54g of Al at NTP releases `H_(2)` gas `=3xx22700 cm`
0.15 g of Al at NTP releases `H_(2)` gas `=((3xx22700)xx0.15g)/(54g) =189.166cm^(3)`
Step-II Volume of `H_(2)` released at `20^(@)C` and 1 bar pressure
NTP conditions `" " `given conditions
`V_(1)=189.166 cm^(3)" "V_(2)=?`
`P_(1)=1"bar " P_(2)=1`bar
`T_(1)=0.273=273K " " T_(2)=20+273+293K`
Now as we know the gas equation is
`(P_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1)) = (P_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2)) , V_(2)=(P_(1)V_(1)T_(2))/(T_(1)P_(2))`
`V_(2)=((1" bar") xx 189.166 cm^(3)) xx (293K))/((1"bar")xx(293K))=203.025 cm^(3)`

Gasoline has an enthalpy of combustion 24000 kJ/mol gallon. When gasoline burns in an automobile engine, approximately 30% of the energy released is used to produce mechanical work. The remainder is lost as heat transfer to the engine's cooling system. As a start on estimating how much heat transfer is required, calculate what mass of water could be heated from 25^(@)C to 75^(@)C by the combustion of 1.0 gallon of gasoline in an automobile? (Given : C(H_(2)O)=4.18 J//g^(@)C ) a) 34.45 kg b) 80.383 kg c) 22 kg d) 224 kg

Fuel cells convert the energy produced during the combustion of fuels cells directly into electrical energy. Probably the most successful fuel cell so far is hydrogen oxygen fuel cell, which has ben used in spacecraft. The electrodes consist of porous screens of titanium coated with a layer of platinum catalyst. concentrated KOH or NaOH soloution is placed beween the electrodes to serve the as electrolyte. hydrogen and oxygen gases are bubbled through the porous electrodes into the electrolyte solution The following electrodes reactions occur: At anode: 2H_2(g)+4OH^(-)(aq)rarr4H_2O(l)+4bare At cathode: O_2(g)+2H_2O(l)+4barerarr4Oh^-(aq) Overall reaction: 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)rarr2H_2O(l) In this cell, the gaseous materials are consumed and continously supplied. The thermodynamic properties of fuel cell reaction at 25^@C are: DeltaH^@=-285.8kJ mol^-1,DeltaG^@=-237.2kJ mol^-1, E^@=1.23V If the potential of the half cell reaction is at cathode is, E^@=0.41V , then E^@ for the half cell reaction at anode is
