A sample of benzene, C6H6, weighing 3.51 g was burned in an excess of oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.00C to 37.18C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and contents was 12.05 kJ/C, what is the value of q for burning 1.00 mol of benzene at constant volume and 25.00C? The reaction is C6H6(l)+152O2(g)6CO2(g)+3H2O(l) Is q equal to U or H?
The complete combustion of acetylene, C2H2(g), produces 1300. kJ of energy per mole of acetylene consumed.

The head of a strike anywhere match contains tetraphosphorus trisulfide, P4S3. In an experiment, a student burned this compound in an excess of oxygen and found that it evolved 3651 kJ of heat per mole of P4S3 at a constant pressure of 1 atm. She wrote the following thermochemical equation: P4S3(s)+8O2(g)P4O10(s)+3SO2(g);H=3651kJ Calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of P4S3, using this students result and the following standard enthalpies of formation: P4O10(s), 3009.9 kJ/mol; SO2(g), 296.8 kJ/mol. How does this value compare with the value given in Appendix C?
Another reaction that is used to propel rockets is N2O4(l)+2N2H4(l)3N2(g)+4H2O(g) This reaction has the advantage that neither product is toxic, so no dangerous pollution is released.
