1. H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O AH = -572 kJ a. How much heat is produced in the production of 100.g of H₂O? b. How many grams of H₂ are needed to produce 1.00 x 104 kJ of heat?
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.

a. How much heat is produced in the production of 100.g of H₂O?
b. How many grams of H₂ are needed to produce 1.00 x 104 kJ of heat?
2. A 12.5 g sample of metal with a temperature of 100.0 °C is placed in a calorimeter holding
75.0 g of water at 22.0 °C. The temperature of the water rises to 24.0 °C. What is the specific
heat of the metal? What metal is it?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fbf9d7696-f748-4064-85ba-315fdd126428%2F0883bcb6-6c91-4bb8-8183-6bca1fccfa82%2Fenq6gc_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
