Consider the reaction: CaCO3(s) à CaO(s) + CO2(g)
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

131.5 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

First, we will calculate the standard enthalpy of the reaction (ΔH°).

ΔH° = 1 mol × ΔH°f(CaO(s)) + 1 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂(g) ) - 1 mol × ΔH°f(CaCO₃(s) )

ΔH° = 1 mol × (-634.9 kJ/mol) + 1 mol × (-393.5 kJ/mol) - 1 mol × (-1207.6 kJ/mol)

ΔH° = 179.2 kJ

Then, we calculate the standard entropy of the reaction (ΔS°).

ΔS° = 1 mol × S°(CaO(s)) + 1 mol × S°(CO₂(g) ) - 1 mol × S°(CaCO₃(s) )

ΔS° = 1 mol × (38.1 J/mol.K) + 1 mol × (213.8 J/mol.K) - 1 mol × (91.7 J/mol.K)

ΔS° = 160.2 J/K = 0.1602 kJ/K

Finally, we calculate the standard Gibbs free energy of the reaction at T = 25°C = 298 K.

ΔG° = ΔH° - T × ΔS°

ΔG° = 179.2 kJ - 298 K × 0.1602 kJ/K

ΔG° = 131.5 kJ

How much heat is needed warm 65.34 g of water from 18.43 to 21.75
BaLLatris [955]

Given that  

Mass of water = 65.34 g

Amount of heat = mass of water * specific heat (temperature change

)

= 65.34 g * 4.184 J / g-C ( 21.75-18.43 )C

= 907.63  J  

= 0.908 KJ

And  

1 cal = 4.186798 J

907.63 J * 1 cal / 4.186798 J =216.78  cal

Or0.218 kcal
