Solutions

Expert Solution


4*[ KO2 (s)    -----> K(s)   + O2 (g) ]              DH1 = 4*+134

2*[2KHCO3(s)   ------> CO2(g) + H2O(g) + K2CO3(s)]     DH2 = 2*+33.0

4*[KOH(s)+ CO2(g) ---> KHCO3(s)   ]                    DH3 = 4*-33.5

2*[2K(s) + 2H2O(g) ---> 2KOH(s) + H2 (g) ]           DH4 = 2*-88.0

2*[H2 (g) + 1/2O2(g) ----> H2O(g)   ]                  DH5 = 2*-57.8
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
4KO2(s)   + 2CO2 (g) ---> 2K2CO3 (s) + 3O2 (g) DH = DH1+DH2+DH3+DH4+DH5
------------------------------------------------------------------------

DH = 4*134+2*33.0+4*-33.5+2*-88.0+2*-57.8

     = 176.4 KJ

Problem 1: For the reaction 2CH3OH(l) + 3O2(g) = 2CO2 + 4H2O(l) I calculated that the change in molar entropy of the system is 313.7 Joules/(moles*kelvin). The question then asked what is the entropy change of the system when 2.35 moles of O2 react. I multiplied 313.7 Joules/(moles*kelvin) by 2.35 moles of O2 and also divided by 3 moles of O2 because of the "3" coefficient, and got 246 Joules/kelvin and I just want to make sure that last part...
