Question

If the heats of formation of Al2O3 and Fe2O3 are -400 K.Cal and -190 K.Cal respectively, the heat of the following reaction is 2Al + Fe2O3 →2Fe + Al2O3

Easy
Solution

\begin{array}{l} 2Al{\rm{ }} + {\rm{ }}F{e_2}{O_3} \to 2Fe{\rm{ }} + {\rm{ }}A{l_2}{O_{3{\rm{ }},}}{\Delta _r}H = ?\\\\ {\Delta _r}H = [{\Delta _f}H({\rm{ }}A{l_2}{O_3}) + 2{\Delta _f}H(Fe)] - [2{\Delta _f}H(Al) + {\Delta _f}H(F{e_2}{O_3})]\\\\ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = [ - 400 + 0] - [0 - 190] = - 210Kcal \end{array}
