Question #192947

Calculate the heat of hydrogenation of ethane 𝐢2𝐻4 using the following reactions:

2𝐢 (π‘”π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘β„Žπ‘–π‘‘π‘’) + 3𝐻2 (𝑔) β†’ 𝐢2𝐻6 (𝑔) βˆ†π»π‘“ = βˆ’84.5 π‘˜π½/π‘šπ‘œπ‘™

2𝐢(π‘”π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘β„Žπ‘–π‘‘π‘’) + 2𝐻2 (𝑔) β†’ 𝐢2𝐻4 (𝑔) βˆ†π»π‘“ = 52.3 π‘˜π½/mol

Reaction of heat of hydrogenation of ethane:


"C_2H_4+H_2\\Rightarrow C_2H_6"

Given that:

Equation .1.

"2C+3H_2\\Rightarrow C_2H_6:\\Delta H_1=-84.5KJ\/mol"


Equation .2.

"2C+2H_2\\Rightarrow C_2H_4:\\Delta H_2=" "52.3KJ\/mol"


Now to form the main equation we have to subtract equation 2 from equation 1:


So heat of hydrogenation"=" "\\Delta H_1-\\Delta H_2"

"=-84.5-52.3=-136.8KJ\/mol"
