Carbon disulfide is a colorless liquid. when pure, it is nearly odorless, but the commercial product smells vile. carbon disulfide is used in the manufacture of rayon and cellophane. the liquid burns as follows: cs2(l) + 3o2(g) → co2(g) + 2so2(g)calculate the standard enthalpy change for this reaction usingstandard enthalpies of formation.

The standard enthalpy change of the reaction is -1076.82kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

For the given chemical reaction:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the standard enthalpy change of the reaction is -1076.82kJ

first, consult an activity series chart to determine if al is more reactive than fe. it is, so it will replace the fe. now, one can continue with the problem.

next, make sure you have a correctly balanced equation.

3feo + 2al ==> 3fe + al2o3

now, determine which reactant (feo or al) is in limiting supply.

moles feo present = 125 g x 1 mole/71.8 g = 1.74 moles

moles al present = 25.0 g x 1 mole/26.98 g = 0.927 moles

since from the balanced equation, it take 3 mol feo for every 2 mol al, al will be limiting.

you can determine this simply by dividing moles of each by their coefficient in the balanced equation. for example: 1.74/3 = 0.58 and 0.927/2 = 0.464. al is less, so it is limiting.

finally, using the stoichiometry in the balanced eq. determine mass of fe that can be produced from 0.927 moles of al.

0.927 moles al x 3 moles fe/2 moles al x 55.8 g/mole = 77.6 g

i think its 5049.

i hope this !
