2NO2(g) → N2O4(l)
describes the dimerization of nitrogen dioxide. If the values of ΔHfo(298 K) of NO2(g) and N2O4(l) are +33 and –20 kJ mol–1

Write a balanced chemical equation for the formation of CaCO3 (s) from the elements in their standard states.
Ca(s) + C(s) +3/2 O2 (g) --> CaCO3 (s)
The product side must have a coefficient of 1. Oxygen is diatomic. It is ok to have a fraction coefficient for oxygen so the coefficient of calcium carbonate remains 1.
What is the heat needed to convert a substance from a liquid to a gas?
Heat of vaporization
Exothermic or endothermic?
Combustion of a hydrocarbon
exothermic

C10H8 (s) + 12 O2 (g) --> 10CO2 (g) + 4 H2O (l) delta H= -5156.1 kJ/mol
If the heat of formation of carbon dioxide is -393.509 kJ/mol and the heat of formation of water is -285.83 kJ/mol, what is the heat of formation of C10H8?
77.7 kJ/mol
-5156.1 = [(-393.509 x 10)+ (-285.83 x 4)]-[C10H8 + 12(0)]

100g of water is warmed from 5 C to 95 C. How much heat is absorbed?
37620 J
How much heat is released when 10g of steam at 101 Celsius is cooled to water at 83 Celsius?
The specific heat of steam is 2.09 J/goC.
The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/goC
The heat of fusion of water is 333 J/g
The heat of vaporization of water is 2256 J/g

Given the following equations and Ho values, determine the heat of reaction (kJ) at 298 K for the reaction:
B2H6(g) + 6 Cl2(g) -->2 BCl3(g) + 6 HCl(g)
BCl3(g) + 3 H2O(l) --> H3BO3(g) + 3 HCl(g) Ho/kJ = -112.5
B2H6(g) + 6 H2O(l) 2 H3BO3(s) + 6 H2(g) Ho/kJ = -493.4
1/2 H2(g) + 1/2 Cl2(g) --> HCl(g) Ho/kJ = -92.3

The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 mole of a substance by 1 degree Celsius.
When ice melts, it ionizes into H+ and OH-. Why is this false?
The attraction between water molecules is weakened when ice melts. The bonds between the H and O are not broken.
100.0 g of water was placed in a simple, constant-pressure calorimeter. The temperature of the water was recorded as 295.0 K. A 20.0 g copper block was heated to 353.0 K and then dropped into the water in the calorimeter. What was the final temperature of the water if the specific heat capacities of water and copper are 4.18 and 0.385 J K–1 g–1, respectively
About 296 K
A 13.8g piece of zinc was heated to 98.8C in boiling water and then dropped into a beaker containing 45g of water at 25C. When the water and metal came to thermal equilibrium, the temperature was 27.1 C What is the specific heat of zinc?
About 0.4J/gC
Zinc is losing energy, water is gaining energy
-(c) (13.8)(27.1-98.8) = (4.18)(45)(27.1-25)
You mix 2.00g NaOH with 100 mL of HCl. The temperature of the HCl before mixing was 22.5 Celsius. After mixing, the temperature rose to 25.2 Celsius. Calculate the enthalpy change per mole of NaOH. Assume that the density of HCl is 1.00g/mL and that its specific heat is 4.18 J/gC.
