Thermochemistry Problems

The First Law

1. The complete combustion of acetic acid, HC 2 H 3 O2(l), to form water, H 2 O(l), and

CO2(g), at constant pressure releases 871.7 kJ of heat per mol of acetic acid. Write

a balanced thermochemical equation for this reaction. Draw an enthalpy

diagram for the reaction.

2. Consider the following reaction, which occurs at standard state:

2Cl(g)® Cl2(g) ∆H° = – -­‐‑243.4 kJ

Calorimetry Problems

3. Determine the specific heat of a sample of Cu from the fact that 64.0J are needed

to raise the temperature of 15.0 g of Cu metal from 22.0°C to 33.0°C. [0.388 J/g°C]

4. The specific heat of a sample of copper is 0.385 J/g-­‐‑K. How many joules of heat

are necessary to raise the temperature of a 1.42 kg block of copper from 25.0 °C to

88.5°C?

5. A 50.0-­‐‑g sample of water at 100.00°C was placed in an insulated cup. Then 25.3-­‐‑g

of zinc at 25.00°C was added to the water. The temperature of the water

dropped to 96.68°C. What is the specific heat of the zinc?[0.388 J/g°C]

6. When a 6.50 g sample of solid NaOH dissolves in 100.0g of water in a coffee-­‐‑cup

calorimeter, the temperature rises from 21.6°C to 37.8°C. Calculate the ∆H (in

kJ/mol NaOH) for the solution process. (Assume the specific heat of the solution

formed is 4.18 J/g-­‐‑K)

7. A house is designed to have passive solar energy features, Brickwork is to be

incorporated into the interior of the house to act as a heat absorber. Each brick

weighs approximately 1.8 kg. The specific heat of the brick is 0.85 j/g-­‐‑K. How

many bricks must be incorporated into the interior of the hose to provide the

same total heat capacity as 1.0 10

8. When 15.3 g of sodium nitrate was dissolved in water in a calorimeter, the

temperature fell from 25.00 °C to 21.56 °C. If the heat capacity of the solution

and the calorimeter is 1071 J/°C, what is the enthalpy change for the process

when 1 mol of sodium nitrate dissolves in water?

9. Camphor (C 10 H 16 O) has an energy of combustion of -­‐‑5903.6 kJ/mol. When a

sample of camphor with mass 0.1204 g is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the

temperature increases by 2.28°C. Calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
