- What mass of acetylene, C2H2(g), must be burned to produce 3420 kJ of heat, given that its enthalpy of combustion is 1301 kJ/mol? Compare this with the answer to Exercise 5.91 and determine which substance produces more heat per gram.arrow_forwardA 0.470-g sample of magnesium reacts with 200 g dilute HCl in a coffee-cup calorimeter to form MgCl2(aq) and H2(g).

(b) Write the chemical equation and evaluate H.arrow_forwardWhen solid iron burns in oxygen gas (at constant pressure) to produce Fe2O3(s), 1651 kJ of heat is released for every 4 mol of iron burned. How much heat is released when 10.3 g Fe2O3(s) is produced (at constant pressure)? What additional information would you need to calculate the heat released to produce this much Fe2O3(s) if you burned iron in ozone gas, O3(g), instead of O2(g)?arrow_forward

C(s) + H2O(g) CO(g) + H2(g) Not all of the carbon available is converted to water gas since some is burned to provide the heat for the endothermic reaction of carbon and water. What mass of carbon must be burned (to CO2 gas) to provide the energy to convert 1.00 kg of carbon to water gas?arrow_forwardThe Romans used calcium oxide, CaO, to produce a strong mortar to build stone structures.

Since the amount of water is not constant from experiment to experiment, the mass of water must be measured in each case.
