From the data given below at 298 K for the reaction: CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) Calculate the enthalpy of formation of CH4(g) at 298 K. Enthalpy of reaction is = -89.5 kJ Enthalpy of formation of CO2(g) = -393kJ mol-1 Enthalpy of formation of H2O(l) = -286.0 kJ mol-1

Answer»

ΔH = AHfCO2(g) + 2ΔHfH2O(l) – ΔHfCH4(g) – ΔHf;O2(g) 

-890.5 kJ = -393.5 kJ +2 × -286 kJ - Δ HfCH4(g) - 0 

ΔHfCH4 - 75.0 kJ
