<u>Answer:</u> The
for HCN (g) in the reaction is 135.1 kJ/mol.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:
For the given chemical reaction:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:
![\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCN)})+(6\times \Delta H_f_{(H_2O)})]-[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(NH_3)})+(3\times \Delta H_f_{(O_2)})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(CH_4)})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20H_%7Brxn%7D%3D%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28HCN%29%7D%29%2B%286%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28H_2O%29%7D%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28NH_3%29%7D%29%2B%283%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28O_2%29%7D%29%2B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28CH_4%29%7D%29%5D)
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:
![-870.8=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCN)})+(6\times (-241.8))]-[(2\times (-80.3))+(3\times (0))+(2\times (-74.6))]\\\\\Delta H_f_{(HCN)}=135.1kJ](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-870.8%3D%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28HCN%29%7D%29%2B%286%5Ctimes%20%28-241.8%29%29%5D-%5B%282%5Ctimes%20%28-80.3%29%29%2B%283%5Ctimes%20%280%29%29%2B%282%5Ctimes%20%28-74.6%29%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CDelta%20H_f_%7B%28HCN%29%7D%3D135.1kJ)
Hence, the
for HCN (g) in the reaction is 135.1 kJ/mol.
Answer:Low temperatures
Explanation:
∆G= ∆H-T∆S
If ∆H is negative (exothermic reaction), then in order to maintain ∆G<0 which is the condition for spontaneity; T must decrease. This is because, decrease in T will keep the difference of ∆H and T∆S at a negative value in order to satisfy the above stated condition for spontaneity.
Heat= latent heat of fusion+sensible heat+ latent heat of vapourization
=(79.7*5)+(5*100*1)+(540*5)
=3598.5 cal
