Question
Calculate the enthalpy of reaction (AHrxn) for the following reaction:
Fe2O3(s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO2(g)
Given:
4 Fe(s) + 3 02(g) → 2 Fe203(s) AH= -1648 kJ
2 CO2(g) → 2 C0(g) + 02(g) AH = +565.4 kJ
Transcribed Image Text:Calculate the enthalpy of reaction (AHrxn) for the following reaction: Fe2O3(s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO2(g) Given: 4 Fe(s) + 3 02(g) → 2 Fe203(s) AH= -1648 kJ 2 CO2(g) → 2 C0(g) + 02(g) AH = +565.4 kJ
Expert Solution
Step 1

(1) 4Fe + 3O2----> 2Fe2O3, □H = -1648 kJ

(2) 2CO2 ----> 2CO + O2, □H = +565.4 kJ

(3) Fe2O3 + 3CO ---> 2Fe + 3CO2 

Using Hess's law, 

Reaction (3) =

-1/2×Reaction(1)  - 3/2× Reaction (2)

□H = -□H1/2 - 3□H2/2

= (1648/2) - 3 × 565.4/2

= -24.1 kJ
