(a)

$\Delta H\textdegree = -2856.8\;\text{kJ}$ per mole reaction.

(b)

$\Delta H\textdegree = -22.3\;\text{kJ}$ per mole reaction.

Explanation:

What is the standard enthalpy of formation $\Delta H_f\textdegree{}$ of a substance? $\Delta H_f\textdegree{}$ the enthalpy change when one mole of the substance is formed from the most stable allotrope of its elements under standard conditions.

Naturally, $\Delta H_f\textdegree{} = 0$ for the most stable allotrope of each element under standard conditions. For example, oxygen $\text{O}_2$ (not ozone $\text{O}_3$ ) is the most stable allotrope of oxygen. Also, under STP $\text{O}_2$ is a gas. Forming $\text{O}_2\;(g)$ from itself does not involve any chemical or physical change. As a result, $\Delta H_f\textdegree{} = 0$ for $\text{O}_2\;(g)$ .

Look up standard enthalpy of formation $\Delta H_f\textdegree{}$ data for the rest of the species. In case one or more values are not available from your school, here are the published ones. Note the state symbols of the compounds (water/steam $\text{H}_2\text{O}$ in particular) and the sign of the enthalpy changes.

$\text{C}_2\text{H}_6\;(g)$ : $-84.0\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\text{CO}_2\;(g)$ : $-393.5\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\text{H}_2\text{O}\;{\bf (g)}$ : $-241.8\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\text{PbO}\;(s)$ : $-217.9\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\text{PbO}_2\;(s)$ : $-276.6\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\text{Pb}_3\text{O}_4\;(s)$ : $-734.7\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$

How to calculate the enthalpy change of a reaction $\Delta H_\text{rxn}$ (or simply $\Delta H$ from enthalpies of formation?

Multiply the enthalpy of formation of each product by its coefficient in the equation.Find the sum of these values. Label the sum $\Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\text{Reactants}))$ to show that this value takes the coefficients into account.Multiply the enthalpy of formation of each reactant by its coefficient in the equation.Find the sum of these values. Label the sum $\Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\text{Products}))$ to show that this value takes the coefficient into account.Change = Final - Initial. So is the case with enthalpy changes. $\Delta H_\text{rxn} = \Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\textbf{Products})) - \Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\textbf{Reactants}))$ .

For the first reaction:

$\Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\text{Reactants})) = 4\times (-393.5) + 6\times (-241.8) = -3024.8\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\text{Products})) = 2\times (-84.0) + 7\times 0 = -168.0\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ ; $\begin{aligned}\Delta H_\text{rxn} &= \Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\textbf{Products})) - \Sigma (n\cdot \Delta_f(\textbf{Reactants}))\\ &= (-3024.8\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}) - (-168.0\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1})\\ &= -2856.8\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1} \end{aligned}$ .

Try these steps for the second reaction:

$\Delta H_\text{rxn} = -22.3\;\text{kJ}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}$ .

first, consult an activity series chart to determine if al is more reactive than fe. it is, so it will replace the fe. now, one can continue with the problem.

next, make sure you have a correctly balanced equation.

3feo + 2al ==> 3fe + al2o3

now, determine which reactant (feo or al) is in limiting supply.

moles feo present = 125 g x 1 mole/71.8 g = 1.74 moles

moles al present = 25.0 g x 1 mole/26.98 g = 0.927 moles

since from the balanced equation, it take 3 mol feo for every 2 mol al, al will be limiting.

you can determine this simply by dividing moles of each by their coefficient in the balanced equation. for example: 1.74/3 = 0.58 and 0.927/2 = 0.464. al is less, so it is limiting.

finally, using the stoichiometry in the balanced eq. determine mass of fe that can be produced from 0.927 moles of al.

0.927 moles al x 3 moles fe/2 moles al x 55.8 g/mole = 77.6 g

r just means there's a number of carbon in teh chain. for example rcooh means that after x number of carbon, the chain ends with cooh.
