Question

Liquid methyl acetate reacts according to the balanced equation.When 7.99 mol of CH3CO2CH3 isreacted, calculate the sign and magnitude (kJ) of the heatproduced.

2 CH3CO2CH3(l) + 7O2(g) 6 CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) .

the tolerance is +/-2%

Liquid methyl acetate reacts according to the balanced equation.When 7.99 mol of CH3CO2CH3 isreacted, calculate the sign and magnitude (kJ) of the heatproduced.

2 CH3CO2CH3(l) + 7O2(g) 6 CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) .

Enthalpy (kJ) H = -3189.9 Molar Mass CH3CO2CH3 74.080 O2 31.999 CO2 44.001 H2O 18.015

Explanation / Answer

We Know that :       The given reaction is :            2CH3CO2CH3(l) + 7O2(g) 6 CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) .           numberof moles of methyl acetate = 8.0 moles            Hrxn. = Hproducts   - Hreactants                         = 24 x (- 393.5 KJ ) + 24 x (-285.83 KJ)   - [ 8.0 x (-431.4 KJ ) + 28 x(0 KJ) ]                         = - 12852.72 KJ   So the heat produced isNegative i.e Exothermic Reaction.                         = 24 x (- 393.5 KJ ) + 24 x (-285.83 KJ)   - [ 8.0 x (-431.4 KJ ) + 28 x(0 KJ) ]                         = - 12852.72 KJ   So the heat produced isNegative i.e Exothermic Reaction.
