Calculate the enthalpy change, δh, for the process in which 31.6 g of water is converted from liquid at 3.2 ∘c to vapor at 25.0°c . for water, δhvap = 44.0 kj/mol at 25.0°c and cs = 4.18 j/(g*°c) for h2o(l).

Enthalpy change = 74.36 kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy change is defines as the heat absorbed or evolved during a chemical reaction at constant pressure and volume

Reaction:

H2O(l) --> H2O(g)

DHr = mCsDT

Where m is the mass of water

Cs is the specific heat capacity

DT is the temperature difference

= 31.6 * 4.18 * (25 - 3.2)

= 2879.518 J

DHvap = 44kJ/mol

Moles of water = mass/molecular weight

Molecular weight = (1*2) + 16

= 18g/mol

Moles of water = 31.6/18

= 1.756 moles

DHvap = 44 * 1.756

= 77.244kJ

DH = DHproduct - DHreactant

DHproduct = DHvap = 77.24kJ

DHreactant = DHr = 2879.518J = 2.880kJ

= 77.24 - 2.880

DH = 74.36kJ

Enthalpy change = 74.36 kJ
