Calculate the ΔΔH° (kJ) for the following reaction:

CaC2 (s) + 2 H2O (l) → Ca(OH)2 (aq) + C2H2 (g)

 

when the following heats of reaction are known.

  Ca (s) + 2 C graphite → CaC2 (s)  ΔΔH =  - 62.8 kJ

  Ca (s) + ½ O2 (g) → CaO (s)  ΔΔH =  - 635.5 kJ

  C2H2 (g) + 5/2 O2 (g) → 2 CO2 (g) + H2O (l)  ΔΔH =  - 1301.0 kJ

  C graphite + O2 (g) → CO2 (g)  ΔΔH =  - 393.5 kJ

  CaO (s) + H2O (l) → Ca(OH)2 (aq)  ΔΔH =  - 653.1 kJ
