Calculate the heat of reaction of the following reaction :CO2(g) + H2(g) → CO(g) + H2O(g) Given that the ΔfH°CO(g) = -110.5kJ, ΔfH°CO2(g) = -393.8kJ, ΔfH°H2O(g) = -241.8kJ respectively.

Answer»

The required equation is CO2(g) + H2(g) → CO(g) + H2O(g) 

ΔH – Σ ΔHf(products) — Σ ΔHf(reactants) 

= ΔHf2CO(g) + ΔHf2H2O(g) – ΔHf2CO2(g) - ΔHf2H2(g) 

= -110.5 kJ - 241.8 kJ - (-398.3 kJ) - 0 = -352.3 kJ + 393.8 kJ = 41.5 kJ.
