Use Hess's Law and the following information to calculate the change in enthalpy for the reaction 2C + H2 -> C2H2? How do you use Hess's law to find the enthalpy of reaction for these reactions?

You use the standard enthalpies of formation. To calculate the enthalpy change for a reaction, in your case for the combustion of ethane, you can use the standard enthalpies of formation of the species …

Nov 28, 2016 · For a start you don't calculate it. You want the enthalpy change for the following reaction: C_2H_5OH (l) +3O_2 (g) rarr 2CO_2 (g) + 3H_2O (l) +Delta This is NOT calculated, but measured. …

Why is change in enthalpy zero for isothermal processes? If 6.00 moles of a monatomic ideal gas at a temperature of 235 L are expanded isothermally from a volume of 1.26 L to a volume of 4.08 L. How …

The standard enthalpy of formation for any substance is the change in enthalpy that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of that substance from its contituent elements in their most stable form. Take a …

This is equivalent to saying that when #"4.620 g"# of ammonia react, the enthalpy change of reaction is #DeltaH_"rxn" = -"100.78 kJ"# The minus sign used here symbolized heat lost. Use ammonia's molar …

+"133 kJ/mol" The idea here is that you need to use the change in Gibbs free energy, DeltaG^@, and the change in entropy, DeltaS^@, of the reaction at 161.0^@"C" to determine the change in enthalpy …

The change in free energy will be equal to "+173 kJ". Start with the balanced chemical equation for your reaction N_(2(g)) + O_(2(g)) -> color(red)(2)NO_((g)) Notice that the reaction produces color(red)(2) …

Aug 3, 2016 · The standard enthalpy change of formation, ΔH ∘ f, tells you the enthalpy change that accompanies the formation of one mole of a compound from its constituent elements in their stable …

However, you included the enthalpy change of the entire system, and you weren't given the heat capacity of sodium, so the way above may be the most effective way given that data on an exam.
