Using this information together with the standard enthalpies of formation of O2(g), CO2(g), and H2O(l) from Appendix C, calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of acetone.
Complete combustion of 1 mol of acetone (C3H6O) liberates 1790 kJ:
C3H6O(l)+4O2(g)?3CO2(g)+3H2O(l)?H?=?1790kJ

Answer:

ΔHacetone = - 247.5 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The enthalpy equation is as follows

ΣnΔHproducts – ΣmΔHreactants =ΔHreaction

3×ΣnΔH(CO2(g)) + 3×ΣnΔH(H2O) - ΣnΔH (C3H6O(l)) =ΔHreaction = -1790 kJ/mol

[3(-393.5) + 3(-285.8)] – ΔHacetone

= -1790 kJ/mol

(-1180.5 – 857.4)kJ/mol - ΔHacetone =

-1790 kJ/mol

-2037.9 kJ/mol - ΔHacetone

= -1790kJ/mol

-2037.9 kJ/mol + 1790kJ/mol = ΔHacetone

- 247.5 kJ/mol = ΔHacetone

ΔHacetone = - 247.5 kJ/mol
