Calculate the ΔH for the reaction.
2 C (s) + 3 H2 (g) + 1/2 O2 (g) =
C2H5OH (l)
Given the following information:
C (s) + O2 (g) = CO2
(g)
ΔH = -393.5 KJ/mole
2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) = 2 H2O
(l)
ΔH = -571.6 KJ/mole
C2H5OH (l) + 3 O2 (g) = 2
CO2 (g) + 3 H2O (l) ΔH =
-1367.5 KJ/mole
multiply reaction 1 with 2
2C(S) + 2O2(g) -------------> 2CO2(g) H = -787 KJ / mol
multiply reaction 2 with 1.5
3H2(g) + 1.5O2(g) ---------------> 3H2O(l) H = -1143.2 KJ/mol
reverse equation 3 and add all
2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) ------------> 3O2(g) + C2H5OH(l) H = 1367.5 KJ/mol
3H2(g) + 1.5O2(g) ---------------> 3H2O(l) H = -1143.2 KJ/mol
2C(S) + 2O2(g) -------------> 2CO2(g) H = -787 KJ / mol
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2C(C) + 3H2(g) +1/2O2(g) --------------> C2H2OH(l) H = -562.7 KJ/mol
