The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the heat evolved during the complete combustion of a gaseous mixture of ethene (C₂H₄) and methane (CH₄) that produces 28.0 L of CO₂ from a total of 16.8 L of the gaseous mixture. We will use the given enthalpy changes of combustion for both gases. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Combustion Reactions**: - For methane (CH₄): \[ \text{CH}_4 + 2\text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{CO}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \] - For ethene (C₂H₄): \[ \text{C}_2\text{H}_4 + 3\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2\text{CO}_2 + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \] 2. **Determine the Volume of Gases**: - Let \( x \) be the volume of ethene (C₂H₄) in the mixture. - Then, the volume of methane (CH₄) will be \( 16.8 - x \). - The total volume of CO₂ produced from the combustion is given as 28.0 L. 3. **Calculate the Volume of CO₂ Produced**: - From the combustion of ethene, the volume of CO₂ produced is \( 2x \). - From the combustion of methane, the volume of CO₂ produced is \( 16.8 - x \). - Therefore, the total volume of CO₂ produced can be expressed as: \[ 2x + (16.8 - x) = 28.0 \] - Simplifying this equation: \[ x + 16.8 = 28.0 \] \[ x = 28.0 - 16.8 = 11.2 \text{ L} \] 4. **Determine the Volume of Methane**: - Now, substituting \( x \) back to find the volume of methane: \[ \text{Volume of CH}_4 = 16.8 - x = 16.8 - 11.2 = 5.6 \text{ L} \] 5. **Calculate the Moles of Each Gas**: - Using the ideal gas equation \( PV = nRT \), where \( P = 1 \text{ atm} \), \( R = 0.082 \text{ L atm K}^{-1} \text{ mol}^{-1} \), and \( T = 298 \text{ K} \): - Moles of CH₄: \[ n_{\text{CH}_4} = \frac{PV}{RT} = \frac{1 \times 5.6}{0.082 \times 298} \approx 0.229 \text{ moles} \] - Moles of C₂H₄: \[ n_{\text{C}_2\text{H}_4} = \frac{PV}{RT} = \frac{1 \times 11.2}{0.082 \times 298} \approx 0.458 \text{ moles} \] 6. **Calculate the Heat Evolved**: - Using the given enthalpy changes: - For CH₄: \( \Delta H_c = -900 \text{ kJ/mol} \) - For C₂H₄: \( \Delta H_c = -1400 \text{ kJ/mol} \) - Total heat evolved: \[ \text{Heat} = n_{\text{CH}_4} \times (-900) + n_{\text{C}_2\text{H}_4} \times (-1400) \] \[ \text{Heat} = (0.229 \times -900) + (0.458 \times -1400) \] \[ \text{Heat} = -206.1 - 641.2 = -847.3 \text{ kJ} \] ### Final Answer: The heat evolved during the combustion process is **-847.3 kJ**.
