Read the chemical equation. 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O Which of the following statements would be correct if one mole of hydrogen was used in this reaction? One mole of oxygen was used in this reaction. Two moles of oxygen were used in this reaction. One mole of water was produced from this reaction. Two moles of water were produced from this reaction.

answer: the enthalpy of the overall chemical reaction is +87.88 kj or +88 kj.

according to hess's law, the overall enthalpy of a reaction is the difference between the sum of enthalpy values of all the products and the sum of enthalpy values of all the reactants.

δh(reaction) = ∑nδh(products) - ∑nδh(reactants)

δh(reaction) = [δh +δh] - [δh]

δh(reaction) = [1(-287.02) + 1(0) ] - [1(-374.9)] kj = +87.88 kj

here, δh (pcl3) = -287.02 kj, δh(cl2) = 0, δh(pcl5) = -374.9 kj

therefore, enthalpy of the overall reaction is +87.88 kj or +88 kj.

just did the assignment and the answer was #1 +2 n
