Question

1 Approved Answer

When A reacts with B , the reaction produces C and D ( reaction 1 ) : A ( s ) + 3 B (

When A reacts with B, the reaction produces C and D (reaction 1):
A(s)+3B(l)-C(l)+2D(s)
But when A reacts with C, the reaction produces B and D(reaction 2):
2A(s)+3C(l)B(l)+D(s)
The heat of formation (at standard state) for A(s) is not available in any literature; however, the heat of formation (at standard state) for B, C, and D is available:
B(l)=950kjmol
C(l)=800kjmol
D(s)=-200kj/mol
Experiment shows that the heat of reaction of reaction 2 is thrice the amount of the heat of reaction of reaction 1(say, heat of reaction of reaction 2 is 9, therefore, heat of reaction of reaction 1 is 3).
Determine the heat of formation (at standard state) of A(s)(in kJ/mol).
