Part 2C: Heat of Formation of Metal oxide (Enthalpy of formation of metal oxide)
1) Write the balanced equation for the heat of formation of magnesium oxide and zine oxide.
Ma (s)+ Ź O2 (9) Mg O (s)
2) Using Hess's Law, determine the enthalpy of formation of both the metal oxides, MgO and ZnO.
To do this, you will need the balanced thermochemical equations for the two reactions studicd in
this lab, plus the balanced thermochemical equation for the formation of water from its clements.
Clearly show below how these three equations (and their reaction enthalpies) must be combined to
give the target reaction for enthalpy of formation of both the metal oxides. (For the metal/ metal
oxide that was not assigned to you, take the data for AHn from students on your bench)
Enthalpy of formation of MgO: (Show equations and calculations below)
