The enthalpy of fusion of methanol (CH3OH) is 3.16 kJ/mol. How much heat would be absorbed or released upon freezing 25.6 grams of methanol? 1. 2.52 kJ absorbed 2. 3.95 kJ absorbed 3. 0.253 kJ absorbed 4. 2.52 kJ released 5. 3.95 kJ released

There is  2.52 kJ of energy released (option 4)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The enthalpy of fusion of methanol (CH3OH) is 3.16 kJ/mol

Mass of methanol = 25.6 grams

Molar mass of methanol = 32.04 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of methanol

Moles methanol = mass methanol / molar mass methanol

Moles methanol = 25.6 grams / 32.04 g/mol

Moles methanol = 0.799 moles

Step 3: Calculate energy transfer

Energy  transfer = moles * enthalpy of fusion

Energy = 0.799 moles * 3.16 kJ/mol

Energy = 2.52 kJ released

There is  2.52 kJ of energy released
