Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The type of reaction (exothermic /endothermic) has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
The process in which energy is required to break bonds is called as endothermic process. In other words, endothermic process takes place upon the breakage of bonds.
The process in which energy is released upon the formation of new bonds is called as exothermic process. In other words, exothermic process takes place upon the formation of bonds.
The type of reaction is determined by the formation or breakage of bonds.
(b)
Interpretation:
The type of reaction (exothermic /endothermic) has to be identified.

- The equation for the fermentation of glucose to alcohol and carbon dioxide is: C6H12O6(aq) 2C2H5OH(aq) + 2CO2(g) The enthalpy change for the reaction is 67 kJ. Is this reaction exothermic or endothermic? Is energy, in the form of heat, absorbed or evolved as the reaction occurs?arrow_forwardNitrogen monoxide, a gas recently found to be involved in a wide range of biological processes, reacts with oxygen to give brown NO2 gas. 2 NO(g) + O2(g) NO2(g)rH = 114.1 kJ/mol-rxn Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? What is the enthalpy change if 1.25 g of NO is converted completely to NO2?arrow_forwardDetermine whether the statements given below are true or false.

To heat the water sample to 41C, how much heat must you add to it? b Consider the hypothetical reaction,2X(aq)+Y(l)X2Y(aq)being run in an insulated container that contains 100. g of solution. If the temperature of the solution changes from 21C to 31C, how much heat does the chemical reaction produce? How does this answer compare with that in part a? (You can assume that this solution is so dilute that it has the same heat capacity as pure water.) c If you wanted the temperature of 100. g of this solution to increase from 21C to 51C, how much heat would you have to add to it? (Try to answer this question without using a formula.) d If you had added 0.02 mol of X and 0.01 mol of Y to form the solution in part b, how many moles of X and Y would you need to bring about the temperature change described in part c. e Judging on the basis of your answers so far, what is the enthalpy of the reaction 2X(aq) + Y(l) X2Y(aq)?arrow_forwardWhich of the enthalpies of combustion in Table 5.2 the table are also standard enthalpies of formation?arrow_forward
