Find the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene, C2H4(g), given the following data: C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) --> 2CO2(g) + 2 H2O
Brums [2.3K]

Answer : The standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The formation reaction of C_2H_4 will be,

2C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)    \Delta H_{formation}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)     \Delta H_1=-1411kJ

(2) C(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=-393.5kJ

(3) H_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=-285.8kJ

Now we will reverse the reaction 1, multiply reaction 2 and 3 by 2 then adding all the equation, we get :

(1) 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)     \Delta H_1=+1411kJ

(2) 2C(s)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)    \Delta H_2=2\times (-393.5kJ)=-787kJ

(3) 2H_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)    \Delta H_3=2\times (-285.8kJ)=-571.6kJ

The expression for enthalpy of formation of C_2H_4 will be,

\Delta H_{formation}=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3

\Delta H=(+1411kJ)+(-787kJ)+(-571.6kJ)

\Delta H=52.4kJ

Therefore, the standard enthalpy of formation of ethylene is, 52.4 kJ

What form of pollution can lichens be a good indicator of?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Lichens can be used as air pollution indicators, especially of the concentration of sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere. Lichens are organisms that grow in exposed places such as rocks or tree bark. They need to be very efficient at absorbing water and nutrients to grow there.
