Question

Given the following reactions, M represents a generic metal. All reactions are balanced.

1. 2M(s) + 6 HCI(aq) = @ 2MCl(aq) + 3H2(g)  Delta H = -560.0

2. HCl(g) = HCl  Delta H = -74.8

3. H2(g) + Cl2(g) = 2HCl(g) Delta H = -1845.0

4. MCl3(s) = MCl3(aq) Delta H = -171.0

 

Use the above information to determine the enthalpy of this reaction:

2M(s) + 3Cl2(g) = 2MCl3(s) Delta H = ???
