Question

We can use Hess’s law to calculate enthalpy changes that
cannot be measured. One such reaction is the conversion of
methane to ethylene:
2 CH41g2 ¡C2H41g2 + H21g2
Calculate the H for this reaction using the following thermochemical
data:
CH41g2 + 2 O21g2 ¡CO21g2 + 2 H2O1l2 H = -890.3 kJ
C2H41g2 + H21g2 ¡C2H61g2 H = -136.3 kJ
2 H21g2 + O21g2 ¡2 H2O1l2 H = -571.6 kJ
2 C2H61g2 + 7 O21g2¡4 CO21g2 + 6 H2O1l2 H = -3120.8 kJ

5.110 We can use Hess's law to calculate enthalpy changes that
cannot be measured. One such reaction is the conversion of
methane to ethylene:
2 CH4(8)
C₂H4(8) + H₂(8)
Calculate the AH° for this reaction using the following ther-
mochemical data:
CH4(g) + 2 O₂(8)
CO₂(g) + 2 H₂O(1)
AH = -890.3 kJ
C₂H4(8) + H₂(g)
C₂H6(8)
AH = -136.3 kJ
==
2 H₂(g) + O₂(8)
2 H₂O (1)
AH° =
-571.6 kJ
2 C₂H6(g) +70₂(g) →→→ 4 CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(1)
AH° = -3120.8 kJ
