Check Your Understanding Incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons leads to the generation of carbon monoxide rather than carbon dioxide. As a result, improperly vented furnaces can poie people who live in an affected building because of the toxicity of CO. Calculate the heat of reaction for the incomplete combustion of methane, CH (g), to yield liquid water and CO(g).

Measurements show that the energy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 206. kJ during a certain chemical reaction, which is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that -145. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. Calculate the change in enthalpy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. O exothermic Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? O endothermic
In a constant-pressure calorimeter, 50.0mL of 0.340MBa(OH)2 was added to 50.0mL of 0.680MHCI. The reaction caused the temperature of the solution to rise from 23.86°C to 28.49°C. If the solution has the same density and specific heat as water, what is heat absorbed by the solution? Assume that the total volume is the sum of the individual volumes. (And notice that the answer is in kJ). Q =
The following chemical reaction is exothermic releasing 283 KJ/mole of heat. CO(g) + ½O2(g) ⟷ CO2(g) How would you increase the amount of product produced from this reaction?
A chemical reaction takes place inside a flask submerged in a water bath. The water bath contains 4.70 kg of water at 37.5C. During the reaction 92.8kJ of heat flows out of the flask and into the bath. Calculate the new temperature of the water bath. Heat capacity of water is 4.18J.g-1.K-1. Round your answer to 3
5. When 1.00g of NaCl (MM 58.44 g/mol) is dissolved in 50.00g of water, the temperature drops by 0.319°C. This temperature change is only detectable by the most sensitive thermometers. If this process takes place in a very well insulated calorimeter, no calorimeter constant is needed. a. Calculate the enthalpy change per gram of NaCl. b. Calculate the enthalpy change per mole of NaCl.
Suppose 200.0 mL of 0.50 M HCl and 200.0 mL of 0.50 M NaOH, both initially at 25.0°C, are mixed in a thermos flask. When the reaction is complete, the temperature is 28.4°C. Assuming that the solutions have the same heat capacity as pure water, compute the heat released (in kJ).
On a 7 day wilderness expedition you'll need to heat 2.0 kg of water to the boiling point each day. The air temperature will average 25 °C. You have available canisters of compressed propane (C,H) fuel, which you'll burn to heat the water. Each canister has 25. g of propane in it. What is the minimum number of fuel canisters you must bring? The standard heat of formation of propane at 25 °C is – 103.85 kJ/mol. You'll probably find other helpful data in the ALEKS Data resource. canisters:
