Consider the reaction:
stich3 [128]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{-851.4 kJ/mol}}

Explanation:

2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s); ΔᵣH = ?

The formula for calculating the enthalpy change of a reaction by using the enthalpies of formation of reactants and products is

\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} = \sum \Delta_{\text{f}} H^{\circ} (\text{products}) - \sum\Delta_{\text{f}}H^{\circ} (\text{reactants})

                            2Al(s) + Fe₂O₃(s) ⟶ Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe(s)

ΔfH°/kJ·mol⁻¹:         0         -824.3         -1675.7         0

\begin{array}{rcl}\Delta_{\text{r}}H^{\circ} & = & [1(-1675.7) + 2(0)] - [2(0) - 1(-824.3)]\\& = & -1675.7 + 824.3\\& = & \textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}\\\end{array}\\\text{The enthalpy change is } \large \boxed{\textbf{-851.4 kJ/mol}}

The molar mass of h2o is 18.01 g/mom . The molar mass of o2 is 32.00 g/moo .what mass of h2o on grams must react to produce 50.0
Julli [10]
Oxygen can be obtained from water using electrolysis process as follows:
2 H2O .............> 2H2 + O2

It is given that: 
molar mass of water = 10.01 grams and molar mass of O2 = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation, we can conclude that:
2 moles of water produce 1 mole of oxygen
2 x 18.01 = 36.02 grams of water produce 32 grams of oxygen.

To calculate how many grams of water must react to produce 50 grams of oxygen, we can use cross multiplication as follows:
mass of required water = 56.28125 grams
