The enthalpy change for the explosion of ammonium nitrate with fuel oil is –7198 kJ for every 3 moles of NH4NO3. What is the enthalpy change for 1.0 mole of NH4NO3 in this reaction?

Answer :

Answer:

−2399.33 kJ

Explanation:

If NH₄NO₃ reacts with fuel oil to give a ΔH of -7198 for every 3 moles of NH₄NO₃

What is the enthalpy change for 1.0 mole of NH₄NO₃ in this reaction

∴ For every 1 mole, we will have [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of the total enthaply of the 3 moles

so, to determine the 1 mole; we have:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}*(-7198kJ)[/tex]

= −2399.33 kJ

∴ the enthalpy change for 1.0 mole of NH₄NO₃ in this reaction = −2399.33 kJ
