- The decomposition of ozone, O3, to oxygen, O2, is an exothermic reaction. What is the sign of q? If you were to touch a flask in which ozone is decomposing to oxygen, would you expect the flask to feel warm or cool?arrow_forwardThe formation of aluminum oxide from its elements is highly exothermic. If 2.70 g Al metal is burned in pure O2 to give A12O3, calculate how much thermal energy is evolved in the process (at constant pressure).arrow_forwardUse Appendix L to find the standard enthalpies of formation of oxygen atoms, oxygen molecules (O2), and ozone (O3). What is the standard state of oxygen? Is the formation of oxygen atoms from O2 exothermic? What is the enthalpy change for the formation of 1 mol of O3 from O2?arrow_forward
- The combustion of methane can be represented as follows: a. Use the information given above to determine the value of H for the combustion of methane to form CO2(g) and 2H2O(l). b. What is Hf for an element in its standard state? Why is this? Use the figure above to support your answer. c. How does H for the reaction CO2(g) + 2H2O (1) CH4(g) + O2(g) compare to that of the combustion of methane? Why is this?arrow_forwardCombustion of table sugar produces CO2(g) and H2O( l). When 1.46 g table sugar is combusted in a constant-volume (bomb) calorimeter, 24.00 kJ of heat is liberated. a. Assuming that table sugar is pure sucrose, C12H22O11 (s), write the balanced equation for the combustion reaction. b. Calculate E in kJ/mol C12H22O11 for the combustion reaction of sucrose.arrow_forwardShown below is a diagram depicting the enthalpy change of a chemical reaction run at constant pressure. a Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? b What is the sign of H? c What is the sign of q? d If the reaction does no work, what is the sign of E for this process?arrow_forward
- Oxygen was first prepared by Joseph Priestley (1733-1804) by heating HgO. Use data in Appendix L to estimate the temperature required to decompose HgO(s) into Hg() and O2(g).arrow_forwardGasohol, a mixture of gasoline and ethanol, C2H5OH, is used as automobile fuel. The alcohol releases energy in a combustion reaction with O2. C2H5OH(l)+3O2(g)2CO2(g)+3H2O(l) If 0.115 g ethanol evolves 3.62 kJ when burned at constant pressure, calculate the combustion enthalpy for ethanol.arrow_forward
