Study Notes
Thermochemistry Problems
-
Determine the enthalpy of reaction (ΔHrxn) for the conversion of Maleic acid to Fumaric acid.
- The enthalpy of formation of Fumaric acid is -807.6 kJ/mol.
- The enthalpy of formation of Maleic acid is -784.4 kJ/mol.
- The enthalpy change for the reaction can be calculated by subtracting the enthalpy of formation of the reactants from the enthalpy of formation of the products.
- ΔHrxn = ΔHf°(products) - ΔHf°(reactants)
- ΔHrxn = (-807.6) - (-784.4) = -23.3 kJ/mol
Glucose Metabolism
-
Glucose is metabolized in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
- The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
- The enthalpy of formation (ΔHf°) for glucose is -1273.0 kJ/mol.
- The enthalpy of formation for oxygen is 0 kJ/mol.
- The enthalpy of formation for water is -285.8 kJ/mol.
- The enthalpy of formation for carbon dioxide is -393.5 kJ/mol.
-
The enthalpy change for the reaction can be calculated using the following equation:
- ΔHrxn = Σ ΔHf°(products) - Σ ΔHf°(reactants)
- ΔHrxn = [6(-393.5) + 6(-285.8)] - [-1273.0 + 6(0)] = -2803.0 kJ/mol
