Question

2. Consider the combustion of liquid C₅H₈ in oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. In an experiment, 0.1063 g of C₅H₈ is combusted to produce enough heat to raise the temperature of 150.0 g of water by 7.630 °C.

d. Then what quantity of that heat, in J, was produced by the combustion of C₅H₈? (include the appropriate sign)

e. What is the enthalpy change (in kJ/mol) for the combustion of C₅H₈?

f. Using the table below and the balanced chemical equation, determine the enthalpy of formation for C₅H₈, in kJ/mol?

g. If the literature value for the enthalpy of formation of C₅H₈ is 144 kJ/mol, then what is the magnitude of the percent error for this experiment?

2. The green light emitted by a stoplight has a wavelength of 505 nm. What is the frequency of this photon? (c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s).

3. A photon of blue light has a frequency of 7.50 × 10¹⁴ Hz. Calculate the wavelength of this photon (c = 3.00 × 10⁸ m/s) in nanometers.
