C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) ΔH = -1.37x10^3 kJ
What would happen to the value of ΔH for the reaction of ethanol with oxygen if each of the following occurred:
If the reaction was reversed:
2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) → C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) ΔH = 1.37x10^3 kJ
If the reaction was multiplied by 2:
2C2H5OH(l) + 6O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) ΔH = -2.74x10^3 kJ
If the water was (g) instead of (l):
C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g) ΔH = -1.37x10^3 kJ
If the ethanol was (g) instead of (l):
C2H5OH(g) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) ΔH = -1.37x10^3 kJ
Is this reaction exothermic or endothermic:
This reaction is exothermic.
