Answer:
Enthalpy of formation = -947.68KJ/mol
Explanation:
Enthalpy of formation is the heat change when one mole of a substance is formed from its element in its standard states and in standard conditions of temperature and pressure. it may be positive or negative, if positive, it is an endothermic reaction where the heat content of the product is greater than that of the reactants, and if negative, it is exothermic reaction - where the heat content of the reactants is greater than the products. the enthalpy of formation is measured in KiloJoule/Moles (KJ/Mole).
From the value of the enthalpy of formation of NaHCO3, it shows that the reaction is exothermic, that is the formation of NaHCO3 from its constituents elements. As such, the heat content of the reactants is greater than the products.
The step by step explanation is shown in the attachment.
