Question

8. Calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water to form acetylene (C2H2) and Ca(OH)2. From the following enthalpy of reaction data and the standard enthalpy changes listed, calculate the AHOc for CaC2(s). (2 points) CaC2(s) +2H20(1) -> Ca(OH)2(s) C2H2(g) AH.2 kJ AH kJ/mol) H2O(g) -241.82 H20(1) -285.83 Ca(OH)2(s)--986.2 C2H2(g) +226.77

Answer #1

dH for reaction= dH(product) - dH(reactant)

=.-127.2 = [226.77 + (-986.2)] - [ dH(CaC2) + 2*(-285.83)]

= dH(CaC2) = -60.57 kJ/mol
