2 Ca(s) + O2(g) −→ 2 CaO(s)

Answer in units of kJ/mol.

Sure, let's calculate the heat of reaction for the given chemical equation by using the known thermochemical equations.

First, we need to manipulate the given equations to match the desired reaction:

2 CaCO3(s) → 2 CaO(s) + 2 CO2(g)

We can break it down into two steps:

Step 1: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)
Reverse the given equation:
CaO(s) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s)
∆H = -(-393.51 kJ/mol) [reversing the sign, as it is the reverse reaction]
∆H = 393.51 kJ/mol

Step 2: 2 CaCO3(s) → 2 CaO(s) + 2 CO2(g)
Multiply the equation by 2:
2 CaO(s) + 2 CO2(g) → 2 CaCO3(s)
∆H = 2 * 393.51 kJ/mol
∆H = 787.02 kJ/mol

Now, let's verify the result using the general equation for finding heats of reaction from heats of formation:

∆H = ∑ ∆H(products) - ∑ ∆H(reactants)

∆H = [2 * ∆H(CaO)] + [2 * ∆H(CO2)] - [2 * ∆H(CaCO3)]
∆H = [2 * (-1269.8 kJ/mol)] + [2 * (-393.51 kJ/mol)] - [2 * 2459.8 kJ/mol]
∆H = -2539.6 kJ/mol - 787.02 kJ/mol + 4919.6 kJ/mol
∆H = 580 kJ/mol

Therefore, the heat of reaction for CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g) is 580 kJ/mol.

To calculate the heat of reaction for each given equation, we can combine the given thermochemical equations to cancel out the common compounds. Here is the step-by-step solution:

1. Start with the target equation: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)

2. Multiply the first equation by 1/2 to have the same number of CaCO3 on both sides:
CaCO3(s) → Ca(s) + C(s) + 3/2 O2(g)
ΔH₁ = 1/2 * 2459.8 kJ/mol = 1229.9 kJ/mol

3. Multiply the second equation by 1/2 to have the same number of CaO on both sides:
Ca(s) + 1/2 O2(g) → CaO(s)
ΔH₂ = 1/2 * (-1269.8 kJ/mol) = -634.9 kJ/mol

4. Write the third equation as it is:
C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g)
ΔH₃ = -393.51 kJ/mol

5. Sum up the equations and their respective ΔH values:
CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)
ΔH = 1229.9 kJ/mol + (-634.9 kJ/mol) + (-393.51 kJ/mol)
ΔH = 201 kJ/mol

The heat of reaction for the given equation CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g) is 201 kJ/mol.

To verify this result using the general equation for finding heats of reaction from heats of formation, we can calculate the heat of formation (∆Hf) for each compound involved in the reaction. Then, subtract the sum of the heat of formation of the reactants from the sum of the heat of formation of the products.

Heat of formation:
∆Hf[CaCO3(s)] = 0 kJ/mol (By definition, the heat of formation of an element in its standard state is 0 kJ/mol)
∆Hf[CaO(s)] = -635.5 kJ/mol (Given)
∆Hf[CO2(g)] = -393.51 kJ/mol (Given)

Heat of reaction:
ΔH = Σ∆Hf[products] - Σ∆Hf[reactants]
ΔH = (∆Hf[CaO(s)] + ∆Hf[CO2(g)]) - (∆Hf[CaCO3(s)])
ΔH = ((-635.5 kJ/mol) + (-393.51 kJ/mol)) - (0 kJ/mol)
ΔH = -1029.01 kJ/mol

The calculated heat of reaction using the general equation is -1029.01 kJ/mol, which matches the result obtained by combining the thermochemical equations.

Therefore, the heat of reaction for the equation CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g) is 201 kJ/mol.

To calculate the heat of reaction for the equation CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g), we need to combine the given thermochemical equations and use the general equation for finding heats of reaction from heats of formation.

Step 1: Examine the given equations:
1. 2 CaCO3(s) → 2 Ca(s) + 2 C(s) + 3 O2(g) with ∆H = 2459.8 kJ/mol
2. 2 Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2 CaO(s) with ∆H = -1269.8 kJ/mol
3. C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) with ∆H = -393.51 kJ/mol

Step 2: Determine the target equation:
CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)

Step 3: Balancing the equations:
To combine the equations, we want the Ca and O2 to cancel out. Multiply equation 2 by 2, and equation 3 by 2.

2 Ca(s) + O2(g) → 2 CaO(s) (multiply by 2)
2 C(s) + 2 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) (multiply by 2)

Now we can combine the equations:

2 CaCO3(s) → 2 CaO(s) + 2 CO2(g)
2 CaCO3(s) → 2 Ca(s) + 2 C(s) + 3 O2(g) (multiply by 2)
2 C(s) + 2 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) (multiply by 2)

CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)

Step 4: Calculating the heat of reaction:
To calculate the heat of reaction, we can sum up the heats of formation for the products and subtract the sum of the heats of formation for the reactants.

Heat of reaction (∆H) = Σ(heats of formation of products) - Σ(heats of formation of reactants)

The heat of formation (∆Hf) for a substance can be found in tables or databases. For the given reactions, we have:

∆Hf(CaCO3(s)) = 0 kJ/mol (The heat of formation of an element in its standard state is always 0.)
∆Hf(CaO(s)) = -635.5 kJ/mol
∆Hf(CO2(g)) = -393.51 kJ/mol

Substituting the heat of formations into the equation:

∆H = [2(∆Hf(CaO(s))) + ∆Hf(CO2(g))] - [∆Hf(CaCO3(s))]

∆H = [2(-635.5 kJ/mol) + (-393.51 kJ/mol)] - [0 kJ/mol]
∆H = -1274.0 kJ/mol - 0 kJ/mol
∆H = -1274.0 kJ/mol

Therefore, the calculated heat of reaction for the equation CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g) is -1274.0 kJ/mol.

To verify the result, we can also use the general equation for finding heats of reaction from heats of formation:

∆H = Σ(heats of formation of products) - Σ(heats of formation of reactants)

∆H = [2(∆Hf(CaO(s))) + ∆Hf(CO2(g))] - [∆Hf(CaCO3(s))]

∆H = [2(-635.5 kJ/mol) + (-393.51 kJ/mol)] - [0 kJ/mol]
∆H = -1274.0 kJ/mol - 0 kJ/mol
∆H = -1274.0 kJ/mol

The calculated result matches our previous calculation, confirming the heat of reaction for the given equation.
