The enthalpy of the given reaction is $\boxed{ - 4383.2{\text{ kJ}}}$

Further Explanation:

This problem is based upon Hess’s Law. Hess’s law is utilized for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction that can be obtained simply by summation of two or more reactions. In accordance with the Hess’s law, $\Delta H$ of an overall reaction is obtained by adding the enthalpy change for each individual step reaction involved to obtain the overall reaction.

$\Delta\text{H}_{\text{overall rxn}}=\Delta\text{H}_{1}+\Delta\text{H}_{2}+......+\Delta\text{H}_{n}$

Enthalpy is defined as a state function and therefore its value depends upon the initial and final state of system but not upon the path. This is the reason that the overall reaction can be simply obtained by adding or subtracting the enthalpy change of the individual steps utilized to get the final reaction.

Step 1: The enthalpy change of the following reaction is .

${\text{2M}}\left(s\right)+6{\text{HCl}}\left( {aq}\right)\to2{\text{MC}}{{\text{l}}_3}\left( {aq} \right)+3{{\text{H}}_2}\left(g\right)$ ...… (1)

The value of $\Delta{H_1}$ is -725 kJ.

Step 2: The enthalpy change of the following reaction is $\Delta{H_2}$ .

${\text{HCl}}\left(g\right)\to{\text{HCl}}\left({aq}\right)$ ...... (2)

The value of $\Delta{H_2}$ is -74.5 kJ

Step 3: The enthalpy change of the following reaction is $\Delta {H_3}$ .

${{\text{H}}_2}\left(g\right)+{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_2}\left(g\right)\to2{\text{HCl}}\left( g \right)+{{\text{O}}_2}\left(g\right)$ …… (3)

The value of $\Delta {H_3}$ is -1845 kJ.

Step 4: The enthalpy change of the following reaction is $\Delta {H_4}$ .

${\text{MC}}{{\text{l}}_3}\left( s \right)\to{\text{MC}}{{\text{l}}_3}\left({aq}\right)$ …… (4)

The value of $\Delta {H_4}$ is -476 kJ.

Step 5: The enthalpy change of the following reaction is $\Delta {H_5}$ .

${\text{2M}}\left(s\right)+3{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_2}\left(g\right)\to2{\text{MC}}{{\text{l}}_3}\left(s\right)$ …… (5)

Step 6: Multiply equation (2) by 6, equation (3) by 3 and equation (4) by 3. Add the resulting equation (3) and equation (1). Subtract the resulting equation (2) and equation (4). The final equation obtained is as follows:

${\text{2M}}\left(s\right)+3{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_2}\left(g\right)\to2{\text{MC}}{{\text{l}}_3}\left(s\right)$ …… (6)

Step 7: The expression to calculate $\Delta {H_5}$ is as follows:

$\Delta{H_5}=\Delta {H_1}-6\left( {\Delta{H_2}}\right)+3\left({\Delta {H_3}}\right)- 3\left( {\Delta {H_4}} \right)$ ...... (7)

Substitute -725 kJ for $\Delta {H_1}$ , -74.8 kJ for $\Delta {H_2}$ and -1845 kJ for $\Delta {H_3}$ and -476 kJ for $\Delta {H_4}$ in equation (7).

$\begin{aligned}\Delta {H_5}&=-{\text{725 kJ}}-6\left({-{\text{74}}{\text{.8 kJ}}}\right)+3\left({ - {\text{1845 kJ}}} \right)-3\left({ - {\text{476 kJ}}} \right)\\&=-{\text{725 kJ}}+{\text{448}}{\text{.8 kJ}}-{\text{5535 kJ}}+{\text{1428 kJ}}\\&=-{\text{4383}}{\text{.2 kJ}}\\\end{aligned}$

Hence, the enthalpy of ${\mathbf{2M}}\left({\mathbf{s}}\right){\mathbf{ + 3C}}{{\mathbf{l}}_{\mathbf{2}}}\left( {\mathbf{g}}\right)\to{\mathbf{2MC}}{{\mathbf{l}}_{\mathbf{3}}}\left( {\mathbf{s}}\right)$ is -4383.2 kJ.

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.
