The oxidation of copper(I) oxide, Cu2O(s), to copper(II) oxide, CuO(s), is an exothermic process,

2Cu2O(s) + O2(g) ----> 4CuO(s) Delta H (reaction)= -292.0 Kj/ mol

Calculate the energy released as heat when 9.67 g of Cu2O(s) undergo oxidation at constant pressure.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Molar mass of Cu2O = 143 g/mol
mass of Cu2O = 9.67 g
number of moles of Cu2O, n = mass / Molar mass
= 9.67 / 143
= 0.0676 mol

energy released = 292 KJ/mol * 0.0676 mol
= 19.75 KJ
Answer: 19.75 KJ
