Comments re Chapter 5 Problems:

5-1

A T/F question about standard states.

5-2

Another T/F question.

5-4

Relationship of DrxnH° to the stoichiometry and direction of the reaction. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-5

Definition of a formation reaction. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-6

Practice writing formation reactions. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-8

Definition of a combustion reaction. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-15

Calculation of the difference between DrxnH° and DrxnU° for a standard reaction when the volume of non-gas reactants/products is neglected or considered.  Please compare values of the two corrections and also the values for DrxnH° and DrxnU°.  How important are the differences?

5-16(a)

A simple Hess's Law problem. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-19

A slightly more difficult Hess's Law exercise. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

 

 

5-24

Calculation of DHo for a reaction and then correction for a temperature change.
(Do only the reaction from part a of problem 5-10.)

5-30

A very short T/F question that emphasizes the limits of applicability of an equation that is easily memorized.

5-39

Calculation of DSo for a reaction and then correction for a temperature change.
(Do only the reaction from part a of problem 5-10.)

5-44

Calculation in two different ways of DGo for a reaction.
(Do only the reaction from part a of problem 5-10.)

5-45

Calculation of the DGo value for the same reaction but at a different temperature.
(Do only the reaction from part a of problem 5-10.)

5-63

Comparisons of S values. (Review of material from General Chemistry).

5-64

Estimation of DHo and DSo values from information about the type of reaction.  (This topic was also covered in General Chemistry).

5-67

Question that emphasizes the types of measurements that must be made so that a new substance (e.g., C60) can be included in thermodynamic tables.
