For NX2(g)+3HX2(g)2NHX3(g), ΔH298=−92.2kJ. Assume constant molar heat capacities CP (in Jmol−1K−1): NX2=29.1, HX2=28.8, NHX3=35.1, and R=8.314Jmol−1K−1. Select the correct statement(s).
AΔCP=−45.3JK−1 for the reaction as written.
BΔH400≈−96.8kJ.
C∣ΔH∣ decreases as the temperature is raised.
DΔU298≈−97.2kJ.
Answer: A, B
ΔCP=2(35.1)−29.1−3(28.8)=−45.3JK−1 (true). Kirchhoff: ΔH400=−92.2+(−45.3)(102)/1000=−96.8kJ (true), so ∣ΔH∣ increases with T (statement 3 false). With Δng=−2, ΔU298=ΔH−ΔngRT=−92.2+4.96=−87.2kJ, not −97.2 (false).
