Question

From the following data, the heat of formation of Ca(OH)2(s) at 18C is .... Kcal.
(i) CaO(s)+H2O(l)=Ca(OH)2(s);H18C=15.26 Kcal.....
(ii) H2O(l)=H2(g)+12O2(g);H18C=68.37 Kcal.....
(iii) Ca(s)+12O2(g)=CaO(s);H18C=151.80 Kcal.....

Solution

The correct option is C 235.43
Solution:-
CaO(s)+H2O(l)Ca(OH)2(s);ΔH=15.26kcal.....(1)
H2O(l)H2(g)+12O2(g);ΔH=68.37kcal
H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(l);ΔH=68.37kcal.....(2)
Ca(s)+12O2(g)CaO(s);ΔH=151.80kcal.....(3)
Adding eqn(1),(2)&(3), we have
CaO(s)+H2O(l)+H2(g)+12O2(g)+Ca(s)+12O2(g)Ca(OH)2(s)+H2O(l)+CaO(s); ΔH=(15.26)+(68.37)+(151.80)
Ca(s)+H2(g)+O2(g)Ca(OH)2(s);ΔH=235.43
Hence the heat of formation of Ca(OH)2(s) is 235.43kcal
