Explanation / Answer

Question 1.

HRXN = CO2(g)+2KOH(s)H2O(g)+K2CO3(s)

For the heat of reaction, we need the change of each species

From th eheat of reaction:

HRXN = Hproducts - Hreactants

where Hprod = enthalpy of formation of products

and Hreact = enthalpy of formation of reactants

then, substitute values from the equation given:

HRxn = H2O + K2CO3 - (CO2 + 2*KOH)

HRxn= -241.8 + -1150 - (-393.5 + 2*-424.7)

HRxn = -148.9 kJ
