The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of carbon monoxide (g) with water(I) to form carbon dioxide(g) and hydrogen (g). CO(g) + H₂O(1) CO₂(g) + H₂(g) ΔΗ = 2.80 kJ When 9.08 grams of carbon monoxide(g) react with excess water(1), kJ of energy are
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.
![The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of carbon monoxide (g) with water (l) to form carbon dioxide (g) and hydrogen (g).
\[
\text{CO(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{O(l)} \rightarrow \text{CO}_2\text{(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{(g)} \quad \Delta H = 2.80 \, \text{kJ}
\]
When 9.08 grams of carbon monoxide (g) react with excess water (l), [box] kJ of energy are [dropdown].
*Hint:* An amount of energy is expressed as a positive number. The sign of \( \Delta H \) in the thermochemical equation indicates whether the energy is absorbed or evolved.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Ffb4fd0f6-7be1-48bb-9974-e6a33a794ca8%2F9df14cab-b07d-4777-86b6-6f079c70da0f%2Fyojzwjj_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
