When Ca2+ ions react with HCO32- ions, CaCO3, CO2 and H2O is formed as per the equation shown below-
Ca(HCO3)2 CaCO3 + H2O + CO2
Now, since the system absorb heat from the surrounding it is a endothermic reaction with H = 38.95kJ
Since heat is taken by the system from the surrounding, work will be donr by the system on the surrounding. Thus, W= - 2.47kJ. ( The negative sign is not magnitude. It just show that work is done on the surrounding)
Now, enthalpy is defined as-
H =E +PV
E= internal Energy of the system
PV = Work Done = 2.47kJ
Thus,
E = 38.95 - 2.47kJ = 36.48kJ
Including this enthalpy change and work done in the equation, the complete equation will be-
Ca(HCO3)2 + H CaCO3 + H2O + CO2 + Work

Problem Solving: Show all work, units, sie fies and balanced equations needed to answer the following 1. To make the hydrogen necessary for the manufacture of ammonia in the Haber/Bosch process a steam reforming method is used. This method combines methane gas with steam (water gas) to make hydrogen gas and carbon monoxide gas. The AH for this reaction is + 206 kJ/mole. What amount of energy is needed to produce 1 kg of hydrogen? 2. Given: P.(s) + 3...
