Question

Calculate the heat of formation of CH3COOH(l) at 25C from the following data;
CH3COOH(l)+2O2(g)2CO2+2H2O(l);ΔH=208.34 kcal
C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g);ΔH=94.05 kcal
H2(g)+12O2H2O(l);ΔH=68.32 kcal

Solution

(1) CH3COOH(l)+2O2(g)2CO2+2H2O(l);ΔH1=208.34 kcal

(2) C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g);ΔH2=94.05 kcal

(3) H2(g)+12O2H2O(l);ΔH3=68.32 kcal

ΔH1=2ΔHf(CO2)+2ΔHf(H2O)ΔHf(CH3COOH)ΔHf(O2)

ΔHf(CH3COOH)=2ΔHf(CO2)+2ΔHf(H2O)ΔH1ΔHf(O2)

ΔHf(CH3COOH)=2×(94.05)+2(68.32)(208.34)2×0

ΔHf(CH3COOH)=324.74+208.34

ΔHf(CH3COOH)=116.4 kcal
