The value of deltaH 3 is: a. -279.8kJ b. -95.4 kj c.47.7 kj d.95.4kJ e. 156.9 kj f. 218.3 kj g. 279.8 kj h. 470.6 kj

Explanation / Answer

1) mol CH3OH = 453.6g /32g/mol= 14.175 mol

2 mol CH3OH --------- -1452.8 kJ

14.175 mol CH3OH --------- x= -10297 kJ (if you take the exact atomic mass from peridic table the result is -10283 kJ, i have rounded, so the correct option is d)

2) Heat absorbed= 28.35g x24.2 J/molK x -23.3K / 26.9815g/mol = -592 J

3) 2NH3 -----> H2 + N2H4 DH= 187.6 kJ

3H2 + N2 -----> 2NH3 DH= -92.2 kJ

----------------------------------------

2H2 + N2 -------> N2H4 DH= 187.6 - 92.2= 95.4 kJ
