Hello and thank you for posting your question to Brainmass.
a) From the equation we see that if 3 moles of H2 fully react, then we get 21941 calories.
So if 5 moles of H2 fully react, we get:
Q=5/3 * 21941 = 36568 Cal.
b) Again if we look at the species coefficients in the equation we see that if 3 moles of H2 fully react, we get 2 moles of ...
