Consider the decomposition of liquid benzene, C6H6(l), to gaseous acetylene, C2H2(g): C6H6(l) → 3 C2H2(g) ΔH = +630 kJ (a) What is the enthalpy change for the reverse reaction?

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the forward reaction and its enthalpy change: The decomposition of liquid benzene (C6H6(l)) into gaseous acetylene (C2H2(g)) has an enthalpy change (ΔH) of +630 kJ.
Understand the concept of enthalpy change for reverse reactions: The enthalpy change for the reverse reaction is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the enthalpy change of the forward reaction.
Write the equation for the reverse reaction: 3 C2H2(g) → C6H6(l).
Determine the sign of ΔH for the reverse reaction: Since the forward reaction is endothermic (+630 kJ), the reverse reaction will be exothermic, which means ΔH will be negative.
Calculate the magnitude of ΔH for the reverse reaction: It will be -630 kJ, indicating that energy is released when acetylene converts back to benzene.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Enthalpy Change

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, the positive ΔH value of +630 kJ signifies that the decomposition of benzene into acetylene requires energy input.

Reverse Reaction

The reverse reaction is simply the process of converting products back into reactants. According to the principle of conservation of energy, the enthalpy change for the reverse reaction is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to that of the forward reaction. Therefore, if the forward reaction has a ΔH of +630 kJ, the reverse reaction will have a ΔH of -630 kJ.

Thermodynamic Principles

Thermodynamic principles govern the relationships between heat, work, and energy in chemical reactions. These principles help predict how energy is transferred during reactions. Understanding these principles is crucial for calculating enthalpy changes and determining the feasibility of reactions under different conditions.
