Problem 1PE

Calculating an Enthalpy of Reaction from Enthalpies of Formation

(a) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the combustion of 1 mol of benzene, C6H6(l), to CO2(g) and H2O(l). (b) Compare the quantity of heat produced by combustion of 1.00 g propane with that produced by 1.00 g benzene.

Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction

2H2O2(l)→2H2O(l) + O2(g)

using enthalpies of formation:

ΔHf°(H2O2) =-187.8 kJ/mol ΔHf°1H2O2 =-285.8 kJ/mol

(a) -88.0 kJ, (b) -196.0 kJ, (c) +88.0 kJ, (d) +196.0 kJ, (e) more information needed
