A combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is defined as the reaction of the compound into carbon dioxide and water.
CmHn(g) + (m+(1/4)n)O2(g) ---> mCO2 + (1/2)nH2O(l)
1. Demonstrate that this chemical reaction is balanced.
2a. From this definition, write down the chemical reaction for the combustion of cyclopropane, C3H6(g).
2b. The enthalpy of reaction for the combustion of cyclopropane (i.e., the reaction in 2a) is measured to be ΔH° rxn = −2091 kJ/mol in the standard state at 25° C. Find the standard state enthalpy of formation, ΔH° f , at 25° C for CO2(g) and H2O(l) in a chemistry textbook. Use this information to determine the enthalpy of formation for cyclopropane in the standard state at 25° C.
2c. Propene is an isomer of cyclopropane. At 1bar pressure and a temperature of 25° C, the enthalpy of formation for propene is +20.42 kJ mol-1 . Determine the enthalpy of reaction for the isomerization reaction:

Consider the reaction: C2H4(g) + H2(g) <-> C2H6(g). For this process, deltaH = -137.0 kj/mol and deltaS = -120.6 J/mol*K. Based on these data and assuming deltaH and deltaS are temperature independent, answer the following questions;
1) Does this reaction favor products or reactants at 25 degrees C?
2) At 25 degrees C, is the reaction driven(dominated) by the entropy or the enthalpy?
3) Would a decrease in temperaturefavor the reactants or the products?
4) At what temperature would the equilibrium constant (K) equal unity (=1.0)?
The answers should be 1:products, 2:enthalpy, 3:products and 4:???? but I don't know why! Explaination please and answer to #4.

Remember the expert uses the numbers in the problem rounded to the correct significant digits. The expert allows plus or minus 3% error in a calculation. So be careful when judging the expert's response. You may be using the correct approach, but have a minor math, substitution, or rounding error.
1) A sample of water in the vapor phase (no liquid present) in a flask of constant volume exerts a pressure of 450 mm Hg at 98 C. The flask is slowly cooled.
a). Assuming no condensation, use the Ideal Gas Law to calculate the pressure of the vapor at 87 C; at 72 C.
b) On the basis of your answers in a) and b), predict the pressure exerted by the water vapor in the flask at 87 C; at 72 C.
2) Consider two closed containers each partially filled with liquid water one at 87 C and the other at 72 C. Can the pressure of water vapor in the gas phase in either container ever exceed the equilibrium vapor pressure at the particular temperature? What is the vapor pressure for water at 87 C and at 72C?
3) Write a chemical equation describing the condensation process for N2 and a chemical equation describing the freezing process for N2. For each process discuss the change in enthalpy and entropy that occurs. For each process describe the conditions (in terms of temperature) that support a thermodynamically favorable change, and the conditions that do not support a thermodynamically favorable change.
