Capitolo 5, Problema 46a

At one time, a common means of forming small quantities of oxygen gas in the laboratory was to heat KClO3: 2 KClO3(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g) ΔH = -89.4 kJ For this reaction, calculate H for the formation of (a) 1.36 mol of O2

Identify the given reaction: 2 KClO_3(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O_2(g) with ΔH = -89.4 kJ.
Understand that ΔH = -89.4 kJ is for the formation of 3 moles of O_2.
Set up a proportion to find ΔH for 1.36 moles of O_2: (ΔH for 1.36 mol O_2) / (ΔH for 3 mol O_2) = 1.36 mol / 3 mol.
Solve the proportion to find ΔH for 1.36 moles of O_2.
Ensure the units are consistent and the sign of ΔH reflects the exothermic nature of the reaction.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between the reactants and products in a chemical reaction. It allows us to calculate the amounts of substances consumed and produced in a reaction based on balanced chemical equations. In this case, the stoichiometric coefficients from the reaction indicate that 3 moles of O2 are produced for every 2 moles of KClO3 decomposed.

Stoichiometry Concept

Enthalpy Change (ΔH)

Enthalpy change (ΔH) is a measure of the heat content of a system at constant pressure. It indicates whether a reaction is exothermic (releases heat, ΔH < 0) or endothermic (absorbs heat, ΔH > 0). In the given reaction, ΔH = -89.4 kJ signifies that the decomposition of KClO3 releases 89.4 kJ of energy for every 2 moles of KClO3 reacted, which is crucial for calculating the energy change for the formation of 1.36 moles of O2.

Molar Relationships

Molar relationships refer to the ratios of moles of reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation. These relationships are essential for converting between moles of different substances. In this scenario, knowing that 3 moles of O2 are produced from 2 moles of KClO3 allows us to determine the amount of energy associated with the formation of 1.36 moles of O2 by using the established stoichiometric ratios.
