Formation Reaction Problems: No Idea how to solve it

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on writing formation reactions for Mercury (I) chloride solid and Nitroethane (CH3CH2NO2) liquid at 1 atmosphere pressure and 25°C. Participants clarify that while 1 atmosphere is standard for STP, 25°C is not, as it corresponds to SATP conditions. The importance of consulting a teacher for confirmation is emphasized, highlighting the need for accuracy in chemical equations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of chemical thermodynamics
  • Knowledge of standard state conditions (STP and SATP)
  • Familiarity with writing chemical equations
  • Basic concepts of formation reactions
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the concept of standard state conditions in chemistry
  • Learn how to write formation reactions for various compounds
  • Explore the differences between STP and SATP in chemical contexts
  • Study the properties and reactions of Mercury (I) chloride and Nitroethane
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and anyone interested in understanding formation reactions and standard state conditions in chemical thermodynamics.

Write formation reactions at 1 atmosphere pressure and 25°C for each of the following substnaces:
Mercury (I) chloride solid
Nitroethane (CH3CH2NO2) liquid

I have absolutely no idea how to do this. If anyone can help show or explain to me how to solve this, I'd appreciate it

Are you sure it is 25 degrees C because the 1 atmosphere (101.325 kpa) is STP but the 25 degrees C is not at STP, but SATP.

If you know how to write normal formation reactions, write it that way. However, do not take my word for law. I'd suggest to ask you teacher if no one else on this forum answers this question.
