U. 2006 S. NATIONAL CHEMISTRY OLYMPIAD NATIONAL EXAM--PART II ANSWER KEY Prepared by the American Chemical Society Olympiad Examinations Task Force 1. (11%) A(g) + 3B(g) r 2C(g) Use the tabulated data to answer the questions about this reaction, which is carried out in a 1.0 L container at 25 C. Experiment Ao, mol Bo, mol Initial rate of formation of C, mol .L-1.min-1 1 2 3 a. b. c. d. 0.10 0.20 0.10 0.10 0.20 0.20 0.25 2.0 2.0 For experiment 1, give the initial rate of disappearance of i. A ii. B Determine the orders of A and B and write the rate law for the reaction. Calculate the value of the rate constant and give its units. For the initial amounts of A and B in experiment 1, state the initial rate of formation of C under the following conditions. Justify your answer in each case. i. 0.50 mol of neon gas is added to the 1.0 L container. ii. the volume of the container is increased to 2.0 L. a. rate of formation C = 0.25 mol L-1 min-1 so 1 = 0.13 mol L-1 min -1 2 i. rate of disappearance of A = 3 0.25 = 0.38 mol L-1 min -1 2 ii rate of disappearance of B = 0.25 b. for experiments 2 and 3: [B] is constant while [A] doubles and the rate of the reaction is unchanged. The reaction order with respect to A is zero. for experiments 3 and 1: [A] is constant while [B] doubles and the rate of the reaction increases by a factor of 8. The reaction order with respect to B is 3. Rate = k[B] k= c. 3 0.25 (0.10) 3 = 250 L2 mol -2 min d. i. The rate of formation of C is 0.25 mol L-1 min-1. Adding an inert gas does not change the rate law. ii. The rate of formation of C is 0.031 mol L-1 min-1. Doubling the volume of the container changes the concentration of B. [B] = 0.050 mol L-1 Rate = k [B] = 250 L2 mol -2 min [0.050 mol L-1] = 0.031 3 3 2. (13%) A 0.472 g sample of an alloy of tin and bismuth is dissolved in sulfuric acid to produce tin(II) and bismuth(III) ions. This solution is diluted to the mark in a 100 mL volumetric flask and 25.00 mL aliquots are titrated with a 0.0107 M solution of KMnO4, forming tin(IV) and manganese(II) ions. (The bismuth ions are unaffected during this titration.) Not valid for use as an USNCO Olympiad National Exam after April 25, 2006. Page 1 a. b. c. d. e. Write a balanced equation for the reaction of the MnO4- ion with Sn(II) in acid solution. If an average titration requires 15.61 mL of the MnO4- solution, calculate the number of moles of MnO4- used in an average titration. Determine the percentage of tin in the alloy. State how the end point of the titration is detected. Describe and explain the effect on the calculated percentage of tin in the alloy if the same volume of MnO4- solution is used with the following differences: i. During the titration the solution pH increases so that MnO2 is formed rather than Mn(II). ii. The solution volume in the volumetric flask was above the mark on the flask but a volume of 100. mL was assumed. iii. The sample of the original alloy had an oxide coating on it. 2+ + 2+ + 5Sn 4 + + 8H O 2 a. 2MnO 4 + 5Sn + 16H 2Mn b. 0.01561 L 0.0107 mol L-1 = 1.669 10 -4 mol 1.669 10 -4 mol 5 mol Sn 2+ 118.7 g Sn 2+ = 0.04953 g of Sn in 25 mL 2 mol MnO 1 mol Sn 2+ 4 c. %Sn = 4 0.04953 g 100 = 41.97% 0.472 g sample d. The endpoint is shown by the persistence of a faint purple color. (Indicating that there is an excess of MnO4- .) e. i, The %Sn that is determined is too high. The MnO4-/Sn2+ ratio is 2:3 when MnO2 is formed. Thus, for a given number of moles of 2 2 Sn 3 as many moles of MnO4- will be used rather than 5 . Since the calculations assume MnO4- , the latter ratio is used. So 5 2 = 5 ( 2 3 3 ) of the correct moles of Sn would be calculated. ii. The %Sn that is determined would be too low. Each 25 mL aliquot of contain fewer Sn2+ ions, requiring less MnO4- in the titration. iii. The %Sn that is determined would be too low. The oxide coating leads to fewer Sn2+ ions released into solution per g of sample weighed. 3. (15%) In water, HCN is a weak acid with pKa = 9.6. a. Calculate the the Ka and the [H+ ] in a 0.15 M solution of HCN. b. In a closed system, these equilibria are established: HCN(g) s HCN(aq) HCN(aq) s H+ (aq) + CN-(aq) i. Calculate Kp for the equilibrium between HCN(g) and HCN(aq) at 298 K. ? Gf kJ.mol-1 HCN(g) 124.7 HCN(aq) 119.7 ii. If the total cyanide concentration in solution (i.e. [CN-] + [HCN]) is 0.10M, calculate the partial pressure of HCN(g) in this system at pH = 7. iii. A concentration of 300 ppm of HCN in air is reported to be toxic to humans after a few minutes exposure. Determine the ratio of the pressure calculated in 3.b.ii. to this value. c. Gold can be extracted from its ores by reacting the ore with O2 gas in the presence of aqueous CN- ions according to this equation. 4Au(s) + 8CN-(aq) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) s 4Au(CN)2-(aq) + 4OH-(aq) i. Write the equilibrium expression for this reaction. ii. At fixed [CN ] and O2 pressure will the amount of Au(CN)2 be greatest at high or low pH? Justify your answer. iii. What purpose does O 2 serve in the extraction process? -9.6 = 2.5 10 -10 a. pKa = 9.6, so K a = 10 2 Not valid for use as an USNCO Olympiad National Exam after April 25, 2006. Ka = [H + ][CN ] = 2.5 10-10 = x 2 0.15 so x = [H+] = 6.1 10-6 [HCN] b. i. HCN(g) s HCN(aq) so, ? Go = 119.7 124.7 = 5.0 kJ mol-1 ? Go = RTlnK, so 5000 J mol-1 = (8.314 J mol-1 K-1)(298 K)lnK K = e 2.018 = 7.52 ii. [CN ]+[HCN]=0.10, pH=7.0 so [H+]=1.0 10-7 2.5 10-10 = (1.0 10-7 )(0.10 - x) x 2.5 10-10 x = 1.0 10-8 - 1.0 10-7 x 1.0025 10-7 x = 1.0 10-8 so x = [HCN]eq = 0.0998 Kp = [HCN]eq pHCN so pHCN = 0.0998 = 0.0133 atm 7.52 iii. This problem is ambiguous in terms of how it might be solved by mass or by volume Perhaps, the more obvious method is to solve by volume: 0.0133 atm = 0.0133 = 13300 ppm (vol) 1 atm so the ratio is 13300 ppm / 300 ppm = 44.3 We can also use mass... 0.0133 atm HCN 27 g mol -1 HCN = 0.0125 = 12500 ppm (mass) -1 1 atm air 28.8 g mol air so the ratio is 12500 ppm / 300 ppm = 41.6 c. i. [Au(CN) ] [OH ] 2 K= [CN ]8 [O 2] 4 4 ii. Low pH should be used because it will lower the [OH ], shifting the equilibrium towards production of products. iii. O2 is an oxidizing agent in this reaction. 4. (13%) The combustion of ethane, C2H6, produces carbon dioxide and liquid water at 25 C. a. b. Write an equation for this reaction. Given that ? H comb for ethane under these conditions is -1560.5 kJ/mol ethane, calculate i. ? Hf for ethane. ? Hf kJ.mol-1 Bond Energies, kJ.mol-1 CO2(g) 393.5 ii. the bond energy of the C=O bond. C C 347 H2O(l) 285.8 H C 413 Given ? G = 1467.5 kJ/mol, Calculate ? S for this reaction in J.mol-1.K-1. H O 464 Compared with combustion to form liquid water at 25 C, how would combustion O=O 495 to form H2O(g) affect each of the following; i. ? H combustion ii. ? S combustion iii. ? G combustion c. d. a. 2C2H6(g) + 7O2(g) r 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) (note: dividing all coefficients by 2 was given full credit) b. i. H rxn = 4H f (CO 2 ) + 6H f (H 2O) 2H f (C 2H 6 ) Page 3 Not valid for use as an USNCO Olympiad National Exam after April 25, 2006. so 3121 = 4( 393.5) + 6( 285.8) 2Hf(C 2H6) and Hf(C 2H6) = 83.9 kJ mol-1 ii. H rxn = 2BE C C +12BE C H + 7BE O= O 8BE C= O 12BE H O so 3121 = 2(347) + 12(413) + 7(495) 12(464) 8BEC=O and = BEC=O = 6668 / 8 = 833 kJ.mol-1 c. G o = H o TS o so 1467.5 = 1560.5 298 So solving for So yields So = (1560.5 1467.5) / 298 = 312 J K-1 d. i. . The measured Hcombustion is less negative because the heat of vaporization was not released. ii. The Scombustion is more positive (less negative) because H2O(g) has greater entropy than H2O(l) iii. The Gcombustion is less negative due to the combination of these two 5. effects. (12%) Write net equations for each of the combinations of reactants below. Use appropriate ionic and molecular formulas and omit formulas for all ions or molecules that do not take part in a reaction. Write structural formulas for all organic substances.

H3NO4 would have more than 8 e around N (OR) would put a positive (+) formal charge on N (OR) would be too sterically hindered with 4 oxygen atoms around the nitrogen. iii. (1) N is more electronegative that P, so electron density is shifted from H atoms towards the N, so the H+ can be more readily removed. (2) NO3 is stabilized by resonance more than H2PO4 . (3) HNO3 has two free oxygen atoms that attract electron density from the H atom, whereas H3PO4 has only one free oxygen atom. H H H c. 7. C C H H H B2H6cannot adopt this structure because it has only 12 valence electrons where C2H6 has 14.
