Chapter 5: Problem 97

Limestone stalactites and stalagmites are formed in caves by the following reaction: $$ \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}(a q)+2 \mathrm{HCO}_{3}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CaCO}_{3}(s)+\mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l) $$ If \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\) forms at \(298 \mathrm{~K}\) under 1 atm pressure, the reaction performs \(2.47 \mathrm{~kJ}\) of \(P-V\) work, pushing back the atmosphere as the gaseous \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) forms. At the same time, \(38.95 \mathrm{~kJ}\) of heat is absorbed from the environment. What are the values of \(\Delta H\) and of \(\Delta E\) for this reaction?

Short Answer

Expert verified
For the given reaction, the internal energy change (鈭咵) is \(41.42 \: \text{kJ/mol}\) and the enthalpy change (鈭咹) is \(43.89 \: \text{kJ/mol}\).

Step by step solution

01

Recall the first law of thermodynamics formula

The first law of thermodynamics states: \[ 鈭咵 = q + w \] where 鈭咵 is the change in internal energy, q is the heat, and w is the work done by (or on) the system.
02

Calculate the internal energy change from the heat and work values

Given the heat (q) = 38.95 kJ and P-V work (w) = 2.47 kJ, we can find 鈭咵 as follows: \[ 鈭咵 = q + w = 38.95 + 2.47 = 41.42 \: \text{kJ/mol}\]
03

Recall the relationship between enthalpy change, internal energy change, and P-V work

The relationship between enthalpy change (鈭咹), internal energy change (鈭咵), and P-V work (w) is given by: \[ 鈭咹 = 鈭咵 + w \]
04

Calculate the enthalpy change using the relationships derived in Step 3

Using the calculated internal energy change (鈭咵 = 41.42 kJ/mol) and the given P-V work (w = 2.47 kJ/mol), we can find the enthalpy change as follows: \[ 鈭咹 = 鈭咵 + w = 41.42 + 2.47 = 43.89 \: \text{kJ/mol}\]
05

Present the final answer for the enthalpy change and internal energy change in the reaction

For the given reaction, we have calculated the values of the internal energy change and the enthalpy change as follows: - The internal energy change (鈭咵) = 41.42 kJ/mol - The enthalpy change (鈭咹) = 43.89 kJ/mol

At one time, a common means of forming small quantities of oxygen gas in the laboratory was to heat \(\mathrm{KClO}_{3}\) : $$ 2 \mathrm{KClO}_{3}(s) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{KCl}(s)+3 \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \quad \Delta H=-89.4 \mathrm{~kJ} $$ For this reaction, calculate \(\Delta H\) for the formation of (a) \(1.36\) \(\mathrm{mol}\) of \(\mathrm{O}_{2}\) and (b) \(10.4 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{KCl}\). (c) The decomposition of \(\mathrm{KClO}_{3}\) proceeds spontaneously when it is heated. Do you think that the reverse reaction, the formation of \(\mathrm{KClO}_{3}\) from \(\mathrm{KCl}\) and \(\mathrm{O}_{2}\), is likely to be feasible under ordinary conditions? Explain your answer.

Consider the following hypothetical reactions: $$ \begin{aligned} &\mathrm{A} \longrightarrow \mathrm{B} \quad \Delta H=+30 \mathrm{~kJ} \\ &\mathrm{~B} \longrightarrow \mathrm{C} \quad \Delta H=+60 \mathrm{~kJ} \end{aligned} $$ (a) Use Hess's law to calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction \(\mathrm{A} \longrightarrow \mathrm{C}\). (b) Construct an enthalpy diagram for substances A, B, and C, and show how Hess's law applies.

Diethyl ether, \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{10} \mathrm{O}(l)\), a flammable compound that has long been used as a surgical anesthetic, has the structure $$ \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{CH}_{3} $$ The complete combustion of \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{10} \mathrm{O}(l)\) to \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)\) and \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(I)\) yields \(\Delta H^{\circ}=-2723.7 \mathrm{~kJ}\). (a) Write a balanced equation for the combustion of \(1 \mathrm{~mol}\) of \(\mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{40} \mathrm{O}(l)\). (b) By using the information in this problem and data in Table 5.3, calculate \(\Delta H_{f}^{\circ}\) for diethyl ether.

Two solid objects, \(A\) and B, are placed in boiling water and allowed to come to the temperature of the water. Each is then lifted out and placed in separate beakers containing \(1000 \mathrm{~g}\) water at \(10.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Object \(\mathrm{A}\) increases the water temperature by \(3.50^{\circ} \mathrm{C} ;\) B increases the water temperature by \(2.60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). (a) Which object has the larger heat capacity? (b) What can you say about the specific heats of \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) ?

The automobile fuel called E85 consists of \(85 \%\) ethanol and \(15 \%\) gasoline. E85 can be used in the so-called flex-fuel vehicles (FFVs), which can use gasoline, ethanol, or a mix as fuels. Assume that gasoline consists of a mixture of octanes (different isomers of \(\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H}_{18}\) ), that the average heat of combustion of \(\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H}_{18}(l)\) is \(5400 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}\), and that gasoline has an average
