Question

Part A

When 10.00 g of phosphorus is burned in O2(g) to form P4O10(s), enough heat is generated to raise the temperature of 2960 g of water from 18.0 C to 38.0 C.

Calculate the heat of formation of P4O10(s) under these conditions.

Part B

Instant cold packs that are used to ice athletic injuries on the field contain ammonium nitrate and water separated by a thin plastic divider. When the divider is broken, the ammonium nitrate dissolves according to the following endothermic reaction:

NH4NO3(s)NH4+(aq)+NO3(aq)

To measure the enthalpy change for this reaction, 1.25 g of NH4NO3 is dissolved in enough water to make 25.0 mL of solution. The initial temperature is 25.8C and the final temperature (after the solid dissolves) is 21.9C.

Calculate the change in enthalpy for the reaction. (Use 1.0 g/mL as the density of the solution and 4.18 J/(gC) as the specific heat capacity.)

Express the enthalpy change in kilojoules per mole to two significant figures.

Part E

LP gas burns according to this exothermic reaction:

C3H8(g)+5O2(g)3CO2(g)+4H2O(g)Hrxn=2044kJ

What mass of LP gas is necessary to heat 1.6 L of water from room temperature (25.0 C) to boiling (100.0 C)? Assume that during heating, 16 % of the heat emitted by the LP gas combustion goes to heat the water. The rest is lost as heat to the surroundings.

Hf =   kJ/mol  

Explanation / Answer

part A

    P4(s) + 5O2(g) -----> P4O10(s)

no of mol of P4 = 10/124 = 0.0806 mol

heat released(q) = m*s*DT

          = 2960*4.184*(38-18)

          = 247692.8

          = 247.693 kj

DH0f = - q/n = - 247.693/0.0806

      = -3073.11 kj/mol

part B

         NH4NO3(s)NH4+(aq)+NO3(aq)

heat absorbed(q) = m*s*DT

                 = 25*4.184*(25.8-21.9)

                 = 0.408 kj

no of mol of NH4NO3 = W/MWT = 1.25/80 = 0.0156 mol

DH0rxn = +q/n

         = +0.408/0.0156

         = +26.154 Kj/mol

part C

   heat lost by silver block = heat gained by water

    mass of silver*s*DT = mass of water*s*DT

     m*0.233*(68.1-26.6) = 100*4.184*(26.6-24.6)

   m =   mass of silver = 86.54 g
