PROBLEM SET ___


THERMOCHEMISTRY

Answer the following exercises. For problem-solving, solutions should be written in a separate
sheet.

1. Calculate the change in internal energy and determine whether the process is
endothermic or exothermic for the following cases:
Situation ΔE Exothermic or
Endothermic?
q = 0.555 kJ and w = -950 J
A system absorbs 75.0 kJ of heat to its surroundings while the
surroundings do 58.0 kJ of work on the system.
A balloon is cooled by removing 0.700 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
cooling, and the atmosphere does 455 J of work on the balloon.
A bar of gold is heated during which it absorbs 257 J of heat. Assume
the volume of the gold bar remains constant.

2. Indicate which of the following is independent of the path by which a change occurs:
Situation Dependent or Independent?
the change in potential energy when a book is transferred from table to shelf
the heat evolved when a cube of sugar is oxidized to CO2(g) and H2O(g)
the work accomplished in burning a gallon of gasoline

3. Predict which of the following has the higher enthalpy in each case by putting > or < on
the blanks provided.
> or <
1 mol I2(s) at 20°C 1 mol I2(g) at 20°C
2 mol of I atoms 1 mol of I2
1 mol I2(g) and 1 mol H2(g) at 25 °C 2 mol HI(g) at 25 °C
1 mol H2(g) at 100 °C 1 mol H2(g) at 300 °C.

4. Consider the following reaction:


Reaction 1: H2(g) + F2(g) → 2HF(g) ΔH = -537 kJ
Reaction 2: C(s) + 2F2(g) → CF4(g) ΔH = -680 kJ
Reaction 3: 2C(s) + 2H2(g) → C2H4(g) ΔH = +52.3 kJ
Which reaction(s) (1, 2, 3) is(are) exothermic?
What is the ΔH for the reaction C(s) + H2(g) → 1/2C2H4(g)?
What is the ΔH for the reaction 4CF4(g) → 4C(s) + 8F2(g)?
What is the ΔH for the reaction C2H4(g) + 6F2(g) → 2CF4(g) + 4HF(g)?
What is the ΔH for the reaction 3CF4(g) + 6HF(g) → 3/2C2H4(g) + 9F2(g)?
What is the ΔH for the reaction if 100.00 g of HF(g) decomposed completely to H2(g) and F2(g)?
What is the ΔH for the reaction if 100.00 g of C(s) reacted with excess F2(g) to form CF4(g)?
If the amount of heat resulting from the formation of C 2H4(g) is +200.00 kJ, how many grams
of H2(g) reacted with excess C(s)?
