Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Determine the enthalpy change for the reaction 3 H₂(g) + N₂(g) → 2 NH₃(g) using standard enthalpy of formation values:
ΔH_f°[NH₃(g)] = –45.9 kJ/mol
ΔH_f°[H₂(g)] = 0
ΔH_f°[N₂(g)] = 0

💡 Hint: Think about how to apply the standard enthalpy of formation equation in practice.

Question 2

Using bond enthalpies, estimate ΔH for the reaction:
C₂H₄(g) + H₂(g) → C₂H₆(g). Assume average bond enthalpies are:
C=C = 614 kJ/mol,
C–C = 347 kJ/mol,
C–H = 413 kJ/mol.

💡 Hint: Use average bond energies for the calculations involved.
