Question 1

Given the following reaction: C(graphite) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g), calculate the standard enthalpy change if ΔH_f°(C(graphite)) = 0 kJ mol⁻¹ and ΔH_f°(O₂(g)) = 0 kJ mol⁻¹, and ΔH_f°(CO₂(g)) = -393.5 kJ mol⁻¹.

💡 Hint: Use the enthalpy of formation values provided.

Question 2

If a calorimeter reads an initial temperature of 20°C and after a reaction, it reads 25°C with 100g of water, how much heat was absorbed?

💡 Hint: Convert between different units if necessary.
