Question

Use the Hess’ Law to calculate ∆H°(tot) for the [tot] reaction from the ∆H°’s given:

[tot] N2(g) + 3H2(g) --> 2NH3(g)         ∆H°(tot) = ________? kJ

[1]  4NH3(g) + 3O2(g) --> 2N2(g) + 6H2O(g)    ∆H°1 = –1268 kJ

[2]  2H2(g) + O2(g) --> 2H2O(g)      ∆H°2 = –484 kJ

[tot] = ___×[1] ___×[2] add up equations [1] and [2] scaled by the factors you chose, and cancel the same formulas on both sides: ______________ -->  ___________________ same as [tot] after cancelling? ___ if “Yes”, scale the enthalpies ∆H°1 and ∆H°2 by the factors you chose for their equations, and combine for the ΔH°(tot) = ___×∆H°1 ___×∆H°2 = ____kJ
