Answer:
(A) endothermic
(A) Yes, absorbed
Explanation:
Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.
2 Fe₂O₃(s) ⇒ 4 FeO(s) + O₂(g) ΔH = 560 kJ
Since ΔH > 0, the reaction is endothermic.
We can establish the following relations:
- 560 kJ are absorbed when 2 moles of Fe₂O₃ react.
- The molar mass of Fe₂O₃ is 160 g/mol.
Suppose 66.6 g of Fe₂O₃ react. The heat absorbed is:
