2.00 g of sulphur were completely burnt in air. The heat given off raised thetemperature of 222 g of water from 21 degree celsius to 41 degree celsius.Calculate the enthalpy change of combustion of sulphur, in KJ mol^-1.( Relative atomic mass: S = 32.1; specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J g^-1 K^-1 )Ans: 297.9KJ mol^-1

✔ 最佳答案
Energy given out = 222*4.18*(41-21) = 18559.2 J
mol sulphur present = 2/32.1=0.062 mol
so the enthalpy change = 18559.2/0.062 = 297875.16 J ≈ 297.9KJ/mol

note that the enthalpy change should be negative, i.e. exothermic.

Heat released
= mcΔT
= -(222)(4.18)(41 - 21)
= -185559.2 J = -18.56kJ
No. of moles of sulphur
= 2 / 32.1 = 0.06231 mol
Enthalpy change of combustion of sulphur
= -18.56 / 0.06231
= -297.9 kJ mol^-1

Typing mistake:
Heat released = -18559.2 J = -18.56kJ
參考: Knowledge is power.
