Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The amount of energy consumed by the United States each year is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Energy is the capacity to do work. The SI unit of energy is joule. According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, but it can be converted from one form to another.

A quad is a very large unit of energy which is used to represent the quantity of energy consumed by the world or nations.

For which reaction below does the enthalpy change under standard conditions correspond to a standard enthalpy of formation? (Choose all that applies) SO2(g) + 1/2 O2(g) → SO3(g) 2H2(g) + C(s) → CH4(g) Mg(s) + 1/2 O2(g) → MgO(s) CO(g) + H2O(g) → CO2(g) + H2(g) CO2(g) + H2(g) → CO(g) + H2O(g) 1/2 H2(g) + 1/2 N2(g) + 3/2 O2(g) → HNO3(g) CO2(g) + C(s) 2CO(g) N2(g) + 202(g) → 2NO2(g)
Choose all the molecules with zero standard-enthalpy-of-formation (AH% = 0) Fe(s) FeCl2(s) N2(g) H2O(l) 02(g) C(graphite) K(s) H2O(g)
8.5 g of potassium hydroxide (molar mass = 56.1 g/mol) dissolves in 125 g of water and the temperature of the solution increases by 15.58°C. Calculate the AH soln for potassium hydroxide. Assume the specific heat capacity of the solution is 4.2 J.g¨¹.ºC-1. KOH(s) → →K+ K(aq) + OH AH solution = ?kJ/mol (aq)
