Calculate the boiling point and freezing point of a solution containing 478g of ethylene glycol in 3202g of water.

b) With proper examples draw a distinction between mathematical and econometric models?

B. Hess’s Law

1. Using Hess’ Law and the following information calculate the heat of formation of the plant hormone ethylene, C2H4 in the equation: 2 C(s) + 2 H2(g) → C2H4(g)

2. Calculate the value of Ho/kJ for the following reaction using the listed thermochemical equations:

P4O10(g) + 6 PCl5(g) 10 Cl3PO(g)

1/4 P4(s) + 3/2 Cl2(g) --> PCl3(g) ∆Ho = -306.4

P4(s) + 5 O2(g) --> P4O10(g) ∆Ho= -2967.3

PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) --> PCl5(g) ∆Ho= -84.2

PCl3(g) + 1/2 O2(g) --> Cl3PO(g) ∆Ho = -285.7

First Law of Thermodynamics and Calorimetry (5 points each)

A gas system with constant pressure has change in internal energy of 440 J. Heat was lost to the surroundings and 250 J work was done to the surroundings as well. How many calories of heat was lost?

0.315 moles of butane (C4H10) was burned in a copper calorimeter containing 4500 g of water. The calorimeter weighs 2,500 g. The temperature was observed to increased by 3.15 °C. Calculate the molar heat of combustion of butane (HEAT OF COMBUSTION PER MOLE). The specific heat of copper and water are 0.386 J/g. °C and 4.18 J/g. °C respectively.

A 45-g silver spoon (specific heat 0.233 J/g °C) at 25 °C is placed in 180 g of coffee at 85 °C and the temperature of the two become equal. What is the final temperature when the two become equal? The coffee has specific heat of 5.12J/g. °C.
