Answer: 480 kJ of energy is released when 3.5 mol of
reacts.
Explanation:
The balanced chemical reaction is:
Thus it is given that the reaction is exothermic (heat energy is released) as enthalpy change for the reaction is negative.
1 mole of
on reacting gives = 137 kJ of energy
Thus 3.5 moles of
on reacting gives =
of energy
Thus 480 kJ of energy is released when 3.5 mol of
reacts.
