Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A reaction has an enthalpy change of 200 kJ for the formation of 1 mole of product. What is the enthalpy change for the formation of 0.5 moles of product?
  • Step 1: Understand that the enthalpy change (ΔH) is given for the formation of 1 mole of product, which is 200 kJ.
  • Step 2: Recognize that if we want to find the enthalpy change for 0.5 moles of product, we need to calculate half of the enthalpy change for 1 mole.
  • Step 3: Calculate half of 200 kJ by multiplying it by 0.5: 200 kJ * 0.5.
  • Step 4: Perform the multiplication: 200 kJ * 0.5 = 100 kJ.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the enthalpy change for the formation of 0.5 moles of product is 100 kJ.
  • Enthalpy Change – Understanding that enthalpy change is proportional to the amount of substance involved in a reaction.
  • Stoichiometry – Applying stoichiometric principles to calculate changes based on the number of moles.
