Step-by-step explanation:

Answer on Question # 55533 - Chemistry - General chemistry

Question:

1. Given the data. N2(g) + O2(g) = 2 NO(g) ΔH = +180.7 kJ; 2 NO(g) + O2(g) = 2 NO2(g) ΔH = −113.1

kJ; 2 N2O(g) = 2 N2(g) + O2(g) ΔH = − 163.2 kJ; Use Hess’s Law to calculate ΔH for the reaction

N2O(g) + NO2(g) = 3 NO(g); Show your work.

2. Calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water to form acetylene (C2H2) and Ca(OH)2. From the

following enthalpy of reaction data and data in Appendix C in textbook, calculate ΔHf° for CaC2(s):

CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l) Ca(OH)2(s) + C2H2 (g) ΔH = −127.2kJ

3. Using average bond enthalpies, predict which of the following reactions will be most

exothermic: a) C(g) + 2 F2(g) CF4(g) b) CO(g) +3 F2(g) CF4(g) + OF2(g) c) CO2(g) + 4 F2(g) CF4(g) +

2 OF2(g)

Solution

1)

N2(g) + O2(g) = 2 NO(g) ΔH1 = +180.7 kJ x(+2)

2 NO(g) + O2(g) = 2 NO2(g) ΔH2 = −113.1 kJ x(-1)

2 N2O(g) = 2 N2(g) + O2(g) ΔH3 = − 163.2 kJ x(+1)

2N2O(g) + 2NO2(g) = 6 NO(g) ΔH = (ΔH3 + 2ΔH1 – ΔH2)

N2O(g) + NO2(g) = 3 NO(g) ΔH = (ΔH3 + 2ΔH1 – ΔH2)/2 = 155.65 kJ

2)

CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l) = Ca(OH)2(s) + C2H2 (g) ΔHrxn = −127.2kJ

ΔHrxn = ΔHf°(C2H2) + ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) - 2ΔHf°(H2O) - ΔHf°(CaC2);

ΔHf°(CaC2) = ΔHf°(C2H2) + ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) - 2ΔHf°(H2O) – ΔHrxn

ΔHf°(C2H2) = 227.4 kJ/mol

ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) = -985.2 kJ/mol

ΔHf°(H2O) = -285.8 kJ/mol

ΔHf°(CaC2) =227.4 - 985.2 + 2x285.8 + 127.2 = -59.0 kJ/mol

3)

a) C(g) + 2 F2(g) = CF4(g)

b) CO(g) +3 F2(g) = CF4(g) + OF2(g)

c) CO2(g) + 4 F2(g) = CF4(g) + 2 OF2(g)

C-F bond enthalpy 440 kJ/mol

C=O bond enthalpy in carbon dioxide 805 kJ/mol

C=O bond enthalpy in carbon monoxide 1077 kJ/mol

O-F bond enthalpy 184 kJ/mol

F-F bond enthalpy 153 kJ/mol

a) ΔHrxn = 2x153 - 4x440 = -1454 kJ – the most exothermic

b) ΔHrxn = 1077 + 3x152 - 2x184 - 4x440 = -595 kJ

c) ΔHrxn =805x2 + 4x153 - 4x440 – 2x2x184 = -274 kJ

i would go with the first one
