A. Standard enthalpy of combustion of C2H4 is the energy released when one mole of C2H2 is burned completely: C2H4 + 5/2 O2 --> 2 CO2 + H2O Standard enthalpy of formation of C2H4 is the energy needed to form one mole of C2H4 from its constituent components in standard conditions: 2 C + 2 H2 --> C2H4 This is how you answer your homework question: 2 CO2 + 2 H2O --> C2H4 + 3 O2 (invert the combustion equation) 2 C + 2 O2 --> 2 CO2 (formation of CO2) 2 H2 + O2 --> 2 H2O (formation of H2O) ___ 2 C + 2 H2 --> C2H4 Remember to reverse the sign of standard enthalpy of combustion of C2H4. You should find out the standard enthalpy of formation of CO2 and H2O. Remember to multiply those values by 2. Add all the enthalpy values you get from… [cont.]

Explain why the standard enthalpy of formation should be different for propanal and propanone?
Q. Should the answer be because they have different chemical properties and structural formula? I asked the question since by working a theoretical value for the standard enthalpy of formation of both propanone and propanal by calculating their bond energy terms will result in the same answer, but in reality they should be different.

A. they are different compounds, & they likelihood of two entirely different compounds having the same stability... is mighty slim using bond energies, uses the "average energy" of a bond ... and so only gives you a hint as to what the energetics of a compound might actually be. in real life some compounds with a given bonding are more stable (less energetic) than your average compound, while some are the reverse... even though they may all have the same bonding for example the typical C-C bond in a SP3 hybrid shoud be about 109 degrees away from the other bonds... but if it was cyclic it might be stressed into about a 90 degree angle as in "cubane"... ring stress = instability = more energetics

What is the standard enthalpy for H2 and F2 (Hydrogen and Florine)?
Q. the standard enthalpy for Hydrogen Floride and the standard entlapy changes for the atomisation of its elements
Asked by Kaz Wilkosz - Mon Apr 14 04:40:12 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Standard enthalpy of formation for elements in their ground states equals zero by definition. Hence Hf (F ) = 0 Hf (H ) = 0 NIST webbook gives standard enthalpy of formation for hydrogen fluoride: Hf (HF) = -273.30 kJ/mol The enthalpy of reaction equals difference of enthalpy of formation of products minus enthalpy of formation for reactants. So enthalpy of reaction for forming a compound from elements its equal to its enthalpy of formation. But only if the product's stoichiometric factor equals one 1/2 F + 1/2 H HF => Hr = Hf (HF) - (1/2) Hf (F ) - (1/2) Hf (H ) = Hf (HF) If you write formation reaction as: F + H 2 HF you get Hr = 2 Hf (HF) - Hf (F ) - Hf (H ) = 2 Hf (HF)

Q. Please explain thoroughly. Thanks.
Asked by anna - Fri Dec 5 03:28:37 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Because oxygen in its standard state is O2. The definition of standard enthalpy of formation is the change in enthalpy when one mole of a substance is formed in its standard state from its constitutent elements in their standard state at 298k and 1 atm. Since oxygen is ardy an element in its standard state, there is no standard enthalpy of formation to talk about here.

A. I'll try my best to do a worked example although i prefer to draw all the arrows etc. I take it when you mean heat of combustion you mean enthalpy??? 'Enthalpy' deals entirely with energy - if you have 'heat' for something you need to work out its enthalpy of combustion first (i.e. traditionally temperature raised in a set volume of water, Q=mc T). Calculate Hf of propan-1-ol given the following Hc: Propan-1-ol = -2010 C = -394 H2 = -298 3C + 4H2 --->C2H5CH2OH (Eqn for Hf) Combustion products of above: 3CO2 + 4H20 (Arrows would point down to these from either side of our Hf equation). Arrows pointing in the same direction go on the same side of the equation, thus our formula (remember the moles): Hf + Hc C2H5CH2OH = [(3X Hc C)+(4 [cont.]

Asked by Jenna - Sat Jun 28 17:33:28 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Substances have a stand enthalpy of formation of 0 when they are in their standard state, as the first poster said. This is the physical state (solid, liquid, or gas) that a substance would be in under standard conditions. Thus, the standard state for carbon is solid, for water is liquid and for hydrogen is gas. Why? Because at 1.00 atm. and 25 C, these substances are in the physical state specified. I'm not sure why you have 2 Br2(l)'s but if one of them is in gas (g) phase, that won't have a enthalpy of formation of 0 then. Si(s), S8(s) [rhombic], H2(g) are all 0kJ/mol. Note that (g) does not mean GRAMS... it indicates the GASEOUS phase. Again, as the first poster said, if SiO2(s) is part of the list, then it must be that, since… [cont.]
