Using Hess's Laws in Various Equations
Not what you're looking for?
1.) Given the following data:
Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) ---- 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g) delta H = -23 kJ
3Fe2O3(s) + CO(g) ----- 2Fe3O4(s) + CO2(g) delta H = -39 kJ
Fe3O4(s) + CO(g) ----- 3FeO(s) + CO2(g) delta H = +18 kJ
Calculate delta H for the reaction
FeO(s) + CO(g) ----- Fe(s) +CO2(g)
2.) At 298 K, the standard enthalpies of formation for C2H2(g) and C6H6(l) are 227 kJ/mol and 49 kJ/mol, respectively.
C6H6(l) ------ 3C2H2(g)
Both acetylene (C2H2) and benzene (C6H6) can be used as fuels. Which compound would liberate more energy per gram when combusted in air?
3.) Given the following data:
4CuO(s) ---- 2Cu2O(s) + O2(g) delta H = 288 kJ
Cu2O(s) ---- Cu(s) + CuO(s) delta H = 11 kJ
Calculate the standard enthalpy of formation for CuO(s).
