Question

Topic: Hess' Law, Ho,S0,G0

Part A

Given the following data and using Hess’ Law, Calculate change in Enthalpy for the reaction

            Overall reaction :     NO(g)   + O (g)   ------> NO2(g)

2O3(g)    ------> 3O2(g)                        H = - 427 kJ

O2(g)     ------> 2O(g)H = 495 kJ

NO(g)   + O3(g)   ------> NO2 (g) + O2 (g)      H = -199 kJ

Part B

Calculate Ho,S0,G0 for the formation of sulfur trioxide from oxygen gas and sulfur dioxide ;

To get any credit you must write the balanced equation and write the #, unit, substance for the calculations

Explanation / Answer

Target reaction : NO(g)   + O (g)   ------> NO2(g)

Given reactions are to be arranged so that we get the above target reaction and at the same time

same algebraic action is done on the H values

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    -1/2 { 2O3(g)    ------> 3O2(g)   }           -1/2 ( H = - 427 kJ)

-1/2 { O2(g)     ------> 2O(g) }    -1/2(    H = 495 kJ)

      1x { NO(g)   + O3(g)   ------> NO2 (g) + O2 (g)    }    1(    H = -199 kJ)

Hreaction = -1/2 (   - 427 kJ) - 1/2( 495 kJ) +1(-199 kJ) = -233 KJ

---------------------------------------------------------------

B part

                    SO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) ---------------------> SO3(g)

Ho   = Hoproducts-Horeactants   =-396 - (-297 ) = -99KJ = -99000Joules

S0       = soproducts-soreactants   =257 - (248 + 1/2(205)) = -93.5 Joules

No temperature mentioned so calculating it at 300K

G0       = Ho - Tso = -99000 - 300x(-93.5) = -70950 joules
