1. Relative Atomic Mass from Mass Spectra | 从质谱图计算相对原子质量

A mass spectrum of chlorine gas shows two peaks at m/z 35 and 37. Their relative abundances are 75% and 25% respectively. Use this data to calculate the relative atomic mass (Aᵣ) of chlorine.

氯气的质谱图在 m/z 35 和 37 处显示两个峰,相对丰度分别为 75% 和 25%。请使用这些数据计算氯的相对原子质量 (Aᵣ)。

Multiply each isotopic mass by its percentage abundance, add the results, then divide by 100: Aᵣ = (35 × 75 + 37 × 25) ÷ 100 = (2625 + 925) ÷ 100 = 3550 ÷ 100 = 35.5.

将每种同位素的质量乘以它的百分丰度,相加后再除以 100:Aᵣ = (35 × 75 + 37 × 25) ÷ 100 = (2625 + 925) ÷ 100 = 3550 ÷ 100 = 35.5。

This value matches the Aᵣ of chlorine on the periodic table, confirming that naturally occurring chlorine is a mixture of two isotopes. The calculation demonstrates how the weighted average reflects the true atomic mass used in chemical reactions.

该计算结果与周期表中氯的 Aᵣ 一致,证明天然氯元素是两种同位素的混合物。这一计算展示了加权平均值如何反映化学反应中使用的真实原子质量。


2. Ionic Bonding and Electrical Conductivity | 离子键与导电性

Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) is an ionic compound. Explain why solid magnesium chloride does not conduct electricity, but molten magnesium chloride does. Include the structure and the behaviour of ions in your answer.

氯化镁 (MgCl₂) 是离子化合物。解释为什么固态氯化镁不导电,而熔融氯化镁可以导电。在回答中要涉及离子的结构和行为。

In solid magnesium chloride, the Mg²⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are held in a fixed giant ionic lattice by strong electrostatic forces. The ions vibrate in fixed positions but cannot move freely, so no electrical conductivity is possible.

在固态氯化镁中,Mg²⁺ 和 Cl⁻ 离子通过强烈的静电引力固定在巨型离子晶格中。离子只能在固定位置振动而无法自由移动,因此不能导电。

When magnesium chloride is melted, the ionic lattice breaks down. The ions become mobile and can move throughout the liquid. Mobile charge carriers (ions) allow the material to conduct electricity, completing the circuit at the electrodes during electrolysis.

当氯化镁熔化时,离子晶格被破坏。离子变得可以移动,能够在液体中自由运动。可移动的带电粒子(离子)使材料能够导电,在电解时于电极处完成回路。


3. Giant Covalent Structures: Diamond vs Graphite | 巨型共价结构:金刚石与石墨

Describe and explain the differences in hardness, electrical conductivity, and melting point between diamond and graphite. Both are allotropes of carbon, yet their properties are strikingly different.

描述并解释金刚石与石墨在硬度、导电性和熔点上的差异。两者都是碳的同素异形体,但性质显著不同。

Diamond has each carbon atom bonded to four others in a rigid tetrahedral network. This three-dimensional covalent lattice gives diamond extreme hardness and a very high melting point. All outer electrons are held in strong covalent bonds, so no free electrons are available, making diamond an electrical insulator.

金刚石中每个碳原子与另外四个碳原子以刚性四面体方式键合。这种三维共价网络使金刚石极其坚硬、熔点极高。所有外层电子都参与牢固的共价键,没有自由电子,因此金刚石不导电。

Graphite has carbon atoms arranged in layers of hexagonal rings. Within each layer, bonds are strong, but between layers only weak intermolecular forces exist. This allows layers to slide, making graphite soft and slippery. One electron per carbon atom is delocalised and free to move between layers, enabling graphite to conduct electricity parallel to the layers.

石墨的碳原子呈六边形层状排列。层内键合很强,但层间只有微弱的分子间力,因此层可以滑动,使石墨质地软而滑。每个碳原子有一个离域电子可在层间自由移动,从而使石墨能平行于层面方向导电。


4. Balancing Equations and Mole Ratios | 化学方程式配平与摩尔比

Balance the combustion equation of propane: C₃H₈ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O. Then calculate the number of moles of propane required to produce 3.0 moles of carbon dioxide.

配平丙烷的燃烧方程式:C₃H₈ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O。然后计算生成 3.0 摩尔二氧化碳所需丙烷的摩尔数。

Starting with carbon: 3 C on the left, so place 3 before CO₂. Hydrogen: 8 H atoms, so 4 before H₂O. Now count oxygen atoms on the right: 3×2 + 4×1 = 10 O atoms, so place 5 before O₂. The balanced equation is: C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O.

从碳开始配平:左边有 3 个 C,因此在 CO₂ 前配 3。氢原子有 8 个,所以在 H₂O 前配 4。然后计算右边氧原子数:3×2 + 4×1 = 10 个 O,故在 O₂ 前配 5。配平后的方程式为:C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O。

From the balanced equation, 1 mole of propane produces 3 moles of CO₂. Therefore, to produce 3.0 moles of CO₂, you need exactly 1.0 mole of C₃H₈. The mole ratio 1:3 is crucial for all subsequent reacting mass calculations.

由配平方程式可知,1 摩尔丙烷生成 3 摩尔 CO₂。因此,要产生 3.0 mol CO₂,需要 1.0 mol C₃H₈。这一 1:3 的摩尔比是所有后续反应质量计算的关键。


5. Reacting Mass Calculation | 反应质量计算

Using the balanced equation above, calculate the mass of propane required to produce 2.2 g of carbon dioxide. (Aᵣ values: H = 1, C = 12, O = 16)

利用上述配平方程式,计算生成 2.2 g 二氧化碳所需的丙烷质量。(Aᵣ 值:H = 1, C = 12, O = 16)

First find the molar mass of CO₂: 12 + (16 × 2) = 44 g/mol. Moles of CO₂ produced = mass ÷ Aᵣ = 2.2 ÷ 44 = 0.050 mol.

先计算 CO₂ 的摩尔质量:12 + (16 × 2) = 44 g/mol。产生的 CO₂ 摩尔数 = 质量 ÷ Aᵣ = 2.2 ÷ 44 = 0.050 mol。

The mole ratio of C₃H₈ to CO₂ is 1:3. So moles of propane needed = 0.050 ÷ 3 ≈ 0.0167 mol. Molar mass of C₃H₈ = (12×3) + (1×8) = 44 g/mol. Mass of propane = 0.0167 × 44 = 0.735 g (rounded).

C₃H₈ 与 CO₂ 的摩尔比为 1:3。因此所需丙烷摩尔数 = 0.050 ÷ 3 ≈ 0.0167 mol。C₃H₈ 的摩尔质量 = (12×3) + (1×8) = 44 g/mol。丙烷质量 = 0.0167 × 44 = 0.735 g(四舍五入)。

Always check that your answer makes sense: a smaller mass of CO₂ (2.2 g) requires even less propane since propane has a similar molar mass but a 1:3 mole relationship. Good habit: write units at every step.

始终检查答案的合理性:生成较少 CO₂ (2.2 g) 所需的丙烷更少,因为丙烷摩尔质量相近但摩尔关系为 1:3。好习惯:每一步都带上单位。


6. Electrolysis of Aluminium Oxide | 氧化铝的电解

Aluminium is extracted by electrolysis of molten aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃) dissolved in cryolite. State the half-equations occurring at the cathode and anode, and explain why the anode must be replaced regularly.

铝是通过电解溶解在冰晶石中的熔融氧化铝 (Al₂O₃) 提取的。写出阴极和阳极发生的半反应方程式,并解释为什么阳极需要定期更换。

In the molten mixture, ions present: Al³⁺, O²⁻. At the cathode (negative electrode): Al³⁺ + 3e⁻ → Al. Aluminium ions gain electrons to form liquid aluminium metal, which sinks to the bottom.

在熔融混合物中,存在的离子有:Al³⁺、O²⁻。在阴极(负极):Al³⁺ + 3e⁻ → Al。铝离子得到电子形成液态铝金属,沉到底部。

At the anode (positive electrode): 2O²⁻ → O₂ + 4e⁻. The oxygen gas produced reacts with the hot carbon anode, forming carbon dioxide: C + O₂ → CO₂. This burns away the carbon anode, so it needs periodic replacement.

在阳极(正极):2O²⁻ → O₂ + 4e⁻。生成的氧气与炽热的碳阳极反应,生成二氧化碳:C + O₂ → CO₂。这样碳阳极就被逐渐消耗,因此必须定期更换。


7. Energy Changes Using Bond Energies | 利用键能计算能量变化

The combustion of methane can be represented by: CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O. Use the given bond energies (kJ/mol): C–H 413, O=O 498, C=O 799, O–H 464. Calculate the overall enthalpy change (ΔH) and state whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

甲烷的燃烧可表示为:CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O。使用给出的键能 (kJ/mol):C–H 413,O=O 498,C=O 799,O–H 464。计算总焓变 (ΔH),并说明该反应是放热还是吸热。

Energy required to break bonds in reactants: 4 × (C–H) + 2 × (O=O) = (4 × 413) + (2 × 498) = 1652 + 996 = 2648 kJ. Energy released when new bonds form in products: 2 × (C=O) + 4 × (O–H) = (2 × 799) + (4 × 464) = 1598 + 1856 = 3454 kJ.

断裂反应物中的键所需能量:4 × (C–H) + 2 × (O=O) = (4 × 413) + (2 × 498) = 1652 + 996 = 2648 kJ。生成物中新键形成时释放的能量:2 × (C=O) + 4 × (O–H) = (2 × 799) + (4 × 464) = 1598 + 1856 = 3454 kJ。

Overall ΔH = energy absorbed – energy released = 2648 – 3454 = –806 kJ/mol. The negative sign indicates an exothermic reaction; the products are more energetically stable than the reactants, and heat is released to the surroundings.

总 ΔH = 吸收的能量 – 释放的能量 = 2648 – 3454 = –806 kJ/mol。负号表示这是一个放热反应;生成物比反应物能量状态更稳定,热量释放到周围环境中。


8. Equilibrium and the Effect of Pressure | 平衡与压强的影响

Consider the reversible reaction used in the Contact Process: 2SO₂ + O₂ ⇌ 2SO₃. The forward reaction is exothermic. Predict and explain the effect of increasing the pressure on the equilibrium yield of SO₃, referring to the number of gas molecules on each side.

考虑在接触法制造硫酸中使用的可逆反应:2SO₂ + O₂ ⇌ 2SO₃,正反应是放热的。请预测并解释增大压强对 SO₃ 平衡产率的影响,并说明两侧气体分子数的差异。

On the left-hand side there are 3 moles of gas molecules (2 SO₂ + 1 O₂). On the right-hand side there are 2 moles of gas molecules (2 SO₃). When the pressure is increased, the equilibrium shifts to the side with fewer gas molecules, according to Le Chatelier’s Principle, in order to oppose the change and reduce the pressure.

左边有 3 摩尔气体分子(2 SO₂ + 1 O₂),右边有 2 摩尔气体分子(2 SO₃)。根据勒夏特列原理,增大压强时平衡会向气体分子数较少的一侧移动,以抵消改变、降低压强。

Therefore, increasing pressure favours the forward reaction, producing more SO₃. High pressure also increases the rate of reaction. Industrially, a compromise pressure of about 2 atm is used because higher pressures increase yield but also raise costs and safety concerns without much extra benefit due to the reaction’s kinetics.

因此,增大压强有利于正反应,生成更多的 SO₃。高压也提高了反应速率。工业上采用约 2 个大气压的折中压力,因为过高的压力虽然提高产率,但也会增加成本和安全顾虑,并且由于反应动力学的原因,进一步加压带来的额外收益不大。
