I went through these two problems the simplest way I could find,using the formula:
ÎH°f298 = ΣνiÎH°i
1. In order to determine the ÎH°f298 for urea, Peter decides tocarry out a calorimetric analysis. He determines that the heat ofcombustion of urea, (NH2)2CO(s), at 25°C is 589,000 J mol-1 whenthe products are CO2(g), H2O(l), and N2(g). Calculate ÎH°f298 forurea at this value?It is later found that the previous analysis hadsome errors and that the heat of combustion of urea is actually603,200 J mol-1. By how much does the ÎH°f298 change?
2. What are the standard heats of combustion of methane andpropane gas at 25°C if the combustion products are H2O(l) andCO2(g)?
For problem 1.) I got -963000J/mol for the heat of formationoriginally, and -991000J/mol.
2.) I got -891000J/mol for methane, and -2220000J/mol.
How far am I off and how do I fix this?
