In this question, we are assigned with the task to find the enthalpy change delta h for the formation of magnesium oxide.
00:10
The reaction is shown below.
00:13
One mole of magnesium reacts with half mole of oxygen to produce magnesium oxide.
00:28
And it has also stated in the question that we need to find the enthalpy change associated with this reaction using hesla.
00:36
Before getting into the question, let us understand what does hesler.
00:39
Hezla states, hezla states that overall enthalpy change associated with the reaction is equal to the sum of enthalpy change for each step involved in the reaction.
00:55
Now let us look at the steps involved in the formation of magnesium oxide.
01:01
These are the three different steps involved in the formation of magnesium oxide.
01:05
Now let us reverse this third step.
01:09
Magnesium chloride reacts with water to give magnesium oxide n to hatsyl.
01:18
Since delta h for that reaction is given as 21 point, 69 kilojoule per mole, delta h for the reverse reaction is exactly negative of that, 21...
