Carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 (g), Delta.Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol) according to the equation below. Upper C
(s) plus 2 upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow upper C upper O subscript 2 (g). What is the enthalpy change of the reaction? Use Delta H r x n equals the sum of delta H f of all the products minus the sum of delta H f of all the reactants.. –393.5 kJ –196.8 kJ 196.8 kJ 393.5 kJ
Isotope atoms mean, atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in their nuclei . The given oxygen atoms are isotopes meaning they have different number of neutrons in their nuclei . Oxygen 16 have 8 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus but Oxygen has 8 protons and 10 neutrons. That's what make them different.
