1. A sample of N2 gas occupies 2.40 L at 20oC. If the gas is in a container that can contract or expand at constant pressure, at what temperature will the N2 occupy 4.80 L?

10oC
40oC
146oC
313oC
685oC

2. When 0.56 g of Na(s) reacts with excess F2(g) to form NaF(s), 13.8 kJ of heat is evolved at standard-state conditions. What is the standard enthalpy of formation (ΔH) of NaF(s)?

+24.8 kJ/mol
+570 kJ/mol
-24.8 kJ/mol
-7.8 kJ/mol
-570 kJ/mol

3. Given:

H2(g) + ½O2(g) H2O(l), ΔH = -286 kJ

What is the enthalpy change for the following reaction?

2H2O(l) 2H2(g) + O2(g), ΔHorxn = ?

ΔHo = -286 kJ
ΔHo = +286 kJ
ΔHo = -572 kJ
ΔHo = +572 kJ
ΔHo = -143 kJ

Solution
The above problem is based on Charles law, as pressure is constant throughout the experiment.

Data given are
V1 = 2.40L
T1=20 + 273 = 293 K
V2 = 4.80 L
T2 =?

T2 = 586 K or 313°C
