Measurements show that the energy of a mixture of gaseous reactants decreases by 178. kJ during certain chemical reaction, which is carried out at a constant pressure. Furthermore, by carefully monitoring the volume change it is determined that -163. kJ of work is done on the mixture during the reaction. Calculate the change in enthalpy of the gas mixture during the reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? kJ exothermic endothermic x10 X

a You want to determine the value for the enthalpy of formation of CaSO4(s). Ca(s) + S(s) + 2 O₂ (g) → CaSO4(s) This reaction cannot be done directly. You know, however, that both calcium and sulfur react with oxygen to produce oxides in reactions that can be studied calorimetrically. You also know that the basic oxide CaO reacts with the acidic oxide SO3 (g) to produce CaSO4(s) with A₁ H° = -402.7 kJ. Outline a method for determining A₁H˚ for CaSO4(s), and identify the information that must be collected by experiment. Using enthalpy of formation data, confirm that AƒH° for CaSO4(s) = −1433.5 kJ/mol. What compound is formed when Ca and O2 react?
When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter. In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 3.95 g of CuCl2(s) are dissolved in 108.60 g of water, the temperature of the solution increases from 23.05 to 26.27 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.86 J/°C. Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of CuCl,(s) in kJ/mol. Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water. AHdissolution kJ/mol
Hot water heaters often use natural gas (methane) to generate heat. Methane and oxygen react to form carbon monoxide according to the overall equation: 2CH4(g)+3O2(g) = 2CO(g)+4H2O(g) The enthalpy of formation for each compound are as follows: CH4: - 74.6 O2: 0 CO: - 110.5 H2O: - 285.8 Part A: calculate the overall enthalpy change of the reaction. Part B: A typical water heater contains 40.0 gallons of water. After a long vacation, you come home and turn your water heater from "vacation mode" to hot. How many moles of methane must be combusted to heat the water in your water heater from 30.0°C to 48.0°C? The density of water is 3.79 kg/gal, the specific heat capacity of water is 4.182 J/g°C, and the water heater has a heat capacity of 850.0 J/g°C.
