Question 1

[Maximum number: 5]

Sulfuric acid is manufactured by the Contact process.
One stage in this process is the conversion of sulfur dioxide into sulfur trioxide in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst of vanadium(V) oxide, V2O5\mathrm{V}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}.

Question 1(b)

(a)

Some bond energies are given.

Table

Use the data, and the enthalpy change for the conversion of sulfur dioxide into sulfur trioxide, to calculate a value for the S=O bond energy in SO3\mathrm{SO}_{3}.
S=O bond energy in SO3=\mathrm{SO}_{3}=kJmol1\mathrm{kJ} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}

The Contact process is usually carried out at a temperature of about 400C400^{\circ} \mathrm{C} and a pressure just above atmospheric pressure. Using a higher or lower temperature and pressure would affect both the rate of production of sulfur trioxide and the yield of sulfur trioxide.

Question 1

Question 1(c)

(a)

When SiCl4\mathrm{SiCl}_{4} vapour is passed over Si at red heat, Si2Cl6\mathrm{Si}_{2} \mathrm{C} l_{6} is formed. Si2Cl6\mathrm{Si}_{2} \mathrm{C} l_{6} contains a Si - Si bond.
The reaction of Si2Cl6\mathrm{Si}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{6} and Cl2\mathrm{Cl}_{2} re-forms SiCl4\mathrm{SiCl}_{4}.

Si2Cl6( g)+Cl2( g)2SiCl4( g)\mathrm{Si}_{2} \mathrm{C} l_{6}(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{SiCl}_{4}(\mathrm{~g})
