Question
PChem Please show work. answer if given, the steps are needed.
1) The change of internal energy cU° in the combustion of C60 (s) is -25,968 kJ/mol @ 25°C.
To do these problems each requires a balanced chemical equation. It is assumed that you can figure out the equation from the specific description of enthalpy.
a) What is the enthalpy of combustion, cH° of C60 (s)? ans. -25,968 kJ/mol
b) What is the enthalpy of formation, fH° of C60 (s)? ans. 2357 kJ/mol
c) What is the enthalpy of vaporization of C60 (s) to C (g) per mole of C (g)? ans. 677.4 kJ/mol
d) How does this compare with the enthalpy of vaporization of graphite and diamond to C (g)?
C(graphite) vaporization = 716. 7 kJ/mol. C(diamond) vaporization = 714. 8 kJ/mol.
For data to compare, look up fH° of carbon (diamond) and carbon (graphite) from the Table in the data section of our book.
Thank you
Explanation / Answer
a) enthalpy of combustion, cH° of C60 (s) = ?
C60 (s) + 60O2(g) ==> 60CO2(g)
q = C dT as dTn = 0 i.e 60-60 = 0 so dH = dE (dH = dE + PdV)
= -25968 constant = -25,968 kJ/mol
b) Enthalpy of formation of buckminsterfullerene
60CO2(g) ==> C60 (s) + 60 O2(g) dH = + 25986 KJ/mol
60[C(s) + O2(g) ==> CO2(g) dH = 60 x ( -393.510 KJ/mol)
60C(s) ==> C60(s) dH = dHf[C60] = 25592.49 KJ
c) Enthalpy of vaporization =
