6- Using the information below, calculate the value of VHo (in Kilojoules) for the reaction: ½ Cl2 (g) + NaBr (s) ----------------> NaCl (s) + ½ Br2 (l) ?Ho = ? Given thermochemical equations: CaO (s) + Cl2 (g) --------> CaOCl2 (s) ?Ho = - 110.9kJ 2NaCl(s) + Ca(OH)2 (s) + Br2(l) ------->H2O (l) + CaOCl2 (s) + 2NaBr(s) ?Ho = + 60.2kJ Ca(OH)2 (s) -----------> O(s) + H2O (l) ?Ho = + 65.1 kJ Solution We can arrange the equations in the following manner 1/2CaO (s) + 1/2Cl2 (g) --------> 1/2CaOCl2 (s) ?Ho = - 55.45 kJ 1/2H2O (l) + 1/2CaOCl2 (s) + NaBr(s) -------> NaCl(s) + 1/2Ca(OH)2 (s) + 1/2Br2(l) ?Ho = + 30.1 kJ 1/2Ca(OH)2 (s) -----------> 1/2CaO(s) + 1/2H2O (l) ?Ho = +32.55 kJ ============================================================================== ½ Cl2 (g) + NaBr (s) ----------------> NaCl (s) + ½ Br2 (l) ?Ho = +7.2 Kj --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .
