please answer all the following: How much energy per mole does it take to boil each of the following molecules from starting at standard state ambient temperature, 298 K. Boiling means increase temperature to the boiling point and then converting the liquid to a gas. Assume constant pressure conditions. Use Table 2C.1 to find Tboil and ΔHvap. Use Table 2C.7 to find Cpm values. a. Methanol (CH3OH) b. Ethanol (C2H5OH) c. Water (H2O) d. Which needs the largest amount of energy? What factor has the greater impact on this value?
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.
All three substances are liquid at 298 K.
