When 1 mole of H2S(g) reacts with H2O(l) to form H2(g) and SO2(g) according to the following equation, 295 kJ of energy are absorbed.


Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? _________endothermicexothermic

What is the value of q? _______kJ

Explanation / Answer

(1) P4O10(s) + 6 H2O(l) => 4 H3PO4(aq)

Since heat is evolved => reaction is exothermic

q is negative => q = -453 kJ


(2) 2 NO(g) + 2 H2(g) => N2(g) + 2 H2O(l)

Since heat is evolved => reaction is exothermic

q is negative => q = -752 kJ


(3) H2S(g) + 2 H2O(l) => 3 H2(g) + SO2(g)

Since heat is absorbed => reaction is endothermic

q is positive => q = +295 kJ
