Questions and Answers

How would you calculate ΔH for the reaction CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(g)?

You would apply Hess's law by combining the enthalpy changes of the provided reactions that lead to the desired products.

What is the significance of the physical states indicated in the reaction equations?

The physical states indicate the form of the reactants and products, which can affect the reaction's enthalpy change and its thermodynamic properties.

Explain why standard enthalpy changes are essential for thermochemical calculations.

Standard enthalpy changes provide a reference point for the energy changes that occur during chemical reactions, allowing for accurate calculations.

In the reaction P₄(s) + 6Cl₂(g) → 4PCl₃(g), what does the negative ΔH signify?

<p>The negative ΔH signifies that the reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases energy to the surroundings.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Reaction Enthalpy Changes

  • Example 1: Given the following data: 2NH₃(g) + 3N₂O(g) → 4N₂(g) + 3H₂O(l), ΔH = -1010 kJ; N₂O(g) + 3H₂(g) → N₂H₄(l) + H₂O(l), ΔH = -317 kJ; N₂H₄(l) + O₂(g) → N₂(g) + 2H₂O(l), ΔH = -623 kJ; H₂(g) + ½O₂(g) → H₂O(l), ΔH = -286 kJ

  • Example 2: Given the following data: Ca(s) + 2C(graphite) → CaC₂(s), ΔH = -62.8 kJ; Ca(s) + ½O₂(g) → CaO(s), ΔH = -635.5 kJ; CaO(s) + H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq), ΔH = -653.1 kJ; C₂H₂(g) + 2O₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + H₂O(l), ΔH = -1300 kJ; C(graphite) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g), ΔH = -393.5 kJ

  • Calculate ΔH for the reaction: CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(g)

  • Example 3: Given the following data: P₄(s) + 6Cl₂(g) → 4PCl₃(g), ΔH = -1225.6 kJ; P₄(s) + 5O₂(g) → P₄O₁₀(s), ΔH = -2967.3 kJ; PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) → PCl₅(g), ΔH = -84.2 kJ
