Homework Answers

Answer #1

Lets number the reaction as 1, 2, 3 from top to bottom

required reaction should be written in terms of other reaction

This is Hess Law

required reaction can be written as:

reaction 3 = -0.5 * (reaction 1) +0.5 * (reaction 2)

So, deltaHo rxn for required reaction will be:

deltaHo rxn = -0.5 * deltaHo rxn(reaction 1) +0.5 * deltaHo rxn(reaction 2)

= -0.5 * (-434.6) +0.5 * (-696.6)

= -131.0 KJ

Answer: -131.0 KJ
