Calculate the heat of reaction ?H for the following unbalanced reaction: CH4 (g) + H2O (g) -> H2(g) + CO2(g) H-H bond = 436 kJ/mol C-O bond = 360 kJ/mol O-H bond = 463 kJ/mol C=O bond = 799 kJ/mol C-H bond = 414 kJ/mol O=O bond = 498 kJ/mol

Step 1
Energy required to break bonds in reactants: 1 C-H bond in CH4: 1 * 414 kJ/mol = 414 kJ/mol 2 O-H bonds in 2H2O: 4 * 463 kJ/mol = 1852 kJ/mol Total energy required to break bonds in reactants: 414 kJ/mol + 1852 kJ/mol = 2266 kJ/mol Energy released when bonds in Show more…
