Please Help! Use Hess’s Law to determine the ΔHrxn for: Ca (s) + ½ O2 (g) → CaO (s) Given: Ca (s) + 2 H+ (aq) → Ca2+ (aq) + H2 (g) ΔH = 1925.9 kJ/mol 2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2 H2O (l) ΔH = −571.68 kJ/mole CaO (s) + 2 H+ (aq) → Ca2+ (aq) + H2O (l) ΔH = 2275.2 kJ/mole ΔHrxn =

Answer:

ΔHrxn = -635.14kJ/mol

Explanation:

We can make algebraic operations of reactions until obtain the desire reaction and, ΔH of the reaction must be operated in the same way to obtain the ΔH of the desire reaction (Hess's law). Using the reactions:

(1)Ca(s) + 2 H+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + H2(g) ΔH = 1925.9 kJ/mol

(2) 2H2(g) + O2 g) → 2 H2O(l) ΔH = −571.68 kJ/mole

(3) CaO(s) + 2 H+(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + H2O(l) ΔH = 2275.2 kJ/mole

Reaction (1) - (3) produce:

Ca(s) + H2O(l) → H2(g) + CaO(s)

ΔH = 1925.9kJ/mol - 2275.2kJ/mol = -349.3kJ/mol

Now this reaction + 1/2(2):

Ca(s) + ½ O2(g) → CaO(s)

ΔH = -349.3kJ/mol + 1/2 (-571.68kJ/mol)

ΔHrxn = -635.14kJ/mol
