Question 1

What is the standard enthalpy of formation (ΔH_f°)?

  • Heat absorbed when forming one mole of a compound from elements
  • Heat released in combustion reactions
  • Heat change when one mole of water forms
  • Heat in a closed system

💡 Hint: Think of what formation means in thermodynamics.

Question 2

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given the enthalpy changes:
ΔH_f°[C₆H₁₂O₆] = -2,803 kJ/mol (glucose), calculate the heat liberated when burning 1 mole of glucose completely in excess oxygen using combustion data.

💡 Hint: Think back to combustion reactions and their enthalpy definitions.

Question 2

Utilize Hess's Law to find ΔH for the reaction:
C₂H₄ + 3 O₂ → 2 CO₂ + 2 H₂O, using:
ΔH_f°[C₂H₄(g)] = +52.3 kJ/mol, ΔH_f°[CO₂(g)] = -393.5 kJ/mol, ΔH_f°[H₂O(l)] = -285.8 kJ/mol.

💡 Hint: Reference the formation equation while collecting enthalpy values.
