Step by step solution

01

(a) CaO(s) + 2 HCl(g) -> CaCl2(s) + H2O(g)

First, we need to find the ΔH⁰ values of the reactants and products from Appendix C. ΔH⁰(CaO(s)) = -635.1 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(HCl(g)) = -92.3 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(CaCl2(s)) = -795.4 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(H2O(g)) = -241.8 kJ/mol Next, we will apply the formula: ΔH⁰(reaction) = Σ ΔH⁰(products) - Σ ΔH⁰(reactants) ΔH⁰(reaction) = [ΔH⁰(CaCl2(s)) + ΔH⁰(H2O(g))] - [ΔH⁰(CaO(s)) + 2 × ΔH⁰(HCl(g))] ΔH⁰(reaction) = [(-795.4) + (-241.8)] - [(-635.1) + 2 × (-92.3)] ΔH⁰(reaction) = -1037.2 + 635.1 + 184.6 ΔH⁰(reaction) = -217.5 kJ/mol
02

(b) 4 FeO(s) + O2(g) -> 2 Fe2O3(s)

First, we need to find the ΔH⁰ values of the reactants and products from Appendix C. ΔH⁰(FeO(s)) = -272.0 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(O2(g)) = 0 kJ/mol (as it is an element in its standard state) ΔH⁰(Fe2O3(s)) = -824.2 kJ/mol Next, we will apply the formula: ΔH⁰(reaction) = Σ ΔH⁰(products) - Σ ΔH⁰(reactants) ΔH⁰(reaction) = [2 × ΔH⁰(Fe2O3(s))] - [4 × ΔH⁰(FeO(s)) + ΔH⁰(O2(g))] ΔH⁰(reaction) = [2 × (-824.2)] - [4 × (-272.0) + 0] ΔH⁰(reaction) = -1648.4 + 1088.0 ΔH⁰(reaction) = -560.4 kJ/mol
03

(c) 2 CuO(s) + NO(g) -> Cu2O(s) + NO2(g)

First, we need to find the ΔH⁰ values of the reactants and products from Appendix C. ΔH⁰(CuO(s)) = -156.1 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(NO(g)) = 90.3 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(Cu2O(s)) = -168.6 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(NO2(g)) = 33.2 kJ/mol Next, we will apply the formula: ΔH⁰(reaction) = Σ ΔH⁰(products) - Σ ΔH⁰(reactants) ΔH⁰(reaction) = [ΔH⁰(Cu2O(s)) + ΔH⁰(NO2(g))] - [2 × ΔH⁰(CuO(s)) + ΔH⁰(NO(g))] ΔH⁰(reaction) = [(-168.6) + 33.2] - [2 × (-156.1) + 90.3] ΔH⁰(reaction) = -135.4 + 312.2 - 90.3 ΔH⁰(reaction) = 86.5 kJ/mol
04

(d) 4 NH3(g) + O2(g) -> 2 N2H4(g) + 2 H2O(l)

First, we need to find the ΔH⁰ values of the reactants and products from Appendix C. ΔH⁰(NH3(g)) = -45.9 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(O2(g)) = 0 kJ/mol (as it is an element in its standard state) ΔH⁰(N2H4(g)) = 50.6 kJ/mol ΔH⁰(H2O(l)) = -285.8 kJ/mol Next, we will apply the formula: ΔH⁰(reaction) = Σ ΔH⁰(products) - Σ ΔH⁰(reactants) ΔH⁰(reaction) = [2 × ΔH⁰(N2H4(g)) + 2 × ΔH⁰(H2O(l))] - [4 × ΔH⁰(NH3(g)) + ΔH⁰(O2(g))] ΔH⁰(reaction) = [2 × 50.6 + 2 × (-285.8)] - [4 × (-45.9) + 0] ΔH⁰(reaction) = 101.2 - 571.6 + 183.6 ΔH⁰(reaction) = -286.8 kJ/mol
