53. The combustion of glucose, CH1,O, forms carbon
dioxide gas and water vapour. When a 1.00 g sample
of glucose was burned, it raised the temperature
100.0 mL of water by 37.0 °C. (5.2, 5.3, 5.5) AA
(a) Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
(b) Use AH to calculate the enthalpy change of this
of
reaction.
(c) Use bond energies in Table 1 on page 307 to
calculate the enthalpy change of this reaction.
The structural formula of glucose is shown in
Figure 1.
does it compare with the known melting and boiling point?

9. The average kinetic energy of water molecules is a measure of the temperature of
water. When the temperature of water remains constant the average kinetic energy of
the molecules remains constant, even though the water is being heated by the
Bunsen flame. So, energy is being taken in by the water, but it is not being used to
increase the kinetic energy of the molecules.
9.1 What type of energy are the water molecules gaining during a phase change?
(1)
9.2 Explain your reasoning (to question 9.1) with reference to the kinetic theory of matter.
10. Write the conclusion.

1. (9 points) A 15.0 gram piece of metal is heated to 65.0°C and then dropped
into 175 grams of 24.0°C water. The system eventually comes to a stable
temperature of 35.5 C. (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g °C)
a. Energy is absorbed by the water. What is qWATER?
b. Energy is released by the metal. What is qMETAL? (this one is easy)
c. What is the specific heat (Cs) of the metal?
