Trichloroethylene, a widely used degreasing solvent for machine parts is produced in a two-step reaction sequence. Ethylene is first chlorinated to yield tetrachloroethane, which is dehydrochlorinated to form trichloroethylene.

C2H4 (g) + Cl2 (g) ? C2H2C14 (1) + H2 (g): ?H?? = �385.76 kJ/mol

C2H2C14 (l) ? C2HCl3 (l) + HC1 (g)
The standard heat of formation of liquid trichloroethylene is �276.2 kJ/mol
(a) Use the given data and tabulated standard heats of formation of ethylene and hydrogen chloride to calculate the standard heat of formation of tetrachloroethane and the standard heat of the second reaction.
(b) Use Hess�s law to calculate the standard heat of the reaction C2H4 (g) + 2 C12 (g) � C2HCI3 (l) + H2 (g) + HCI (g)
(c) If 300 mol/h of C2HCl3 (l) is produced in the reaction of part (b) and the reactants and products are all at 25�C and I atm, how much heat is evolved or absorbed in the process? (Assume Q = ?H)

Ethanol (C2H5OH) is a very important chemical.in addition to being widely used as an industrial solvent,a gasoline additive,and an alternative fuel,it is well known as the alcoholic beverages.A common name for ethanol is grain alcohol because it is formed by the fermentation of glucose (C6H12O6) and other sugars in grains such as corn,wheat and barley: C6H12O6---'C2H5OH + CO2 The previous reaction has been carried out for many centuries and is one of the oldest manufacturing processes.In a more recent development,ethanol...

Synthetically produced ethanol is an important industrial commodity used for various purposes, including as a solvent (especially for substances intended for human contact or consumption); in coatings, inks, and personal care products; for sterilization; and as a fuel. Industrial ethanol is a petrochemical synthesized by the hydrolysis of ethylene: C2H4 (g) + H2O (v) <=>C2H5OH (v) Some of the product is converted to diethyl ether in the undesired side reaction: 2 C2H5OH (v)<=> (C2H5 )2O (v) + H2O (v) The...
