Enthalpy of combustion of carbon to CO2 is -393.5 kJ mol-1. Calculate the heat released upon formation of 35.2 g of CO2 from carbon and dioxygen gas.
Formation of CO2 from carbon and dioxygen gas can be represented as:
C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ΔfH = -393.5 kJ mol-1
(1 mole = 44 g)
Heat released on formation of 44g CO2 = -393.5 kJ mol-1
Heat released on formation of 35.2 g CO2
= [ -393.5kJ mol-1 / 44g ] x 35.2g
= -314.8 kJ mol-1
