One gram sample of NH ₄ NO ₃ is decomposed in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increases by 6.12 ~K . The heat capacity of the system is 1.23 ~kJ / g / deg . What is the molar heat of decomposition for NH ₄ NO ₃ ?
Options
- A-7.53 ~kJ / mol
- B-398.1 ~kJ / mol
- C-16.1 ~kJ / mol
- D-602 ~kJ / mol
Correct answer
D. -602 ~kJ / mol
Step-by-step solution
Heat of decomposition, E=m s T =1 1.23 6.12=7.5276 ~kJ . Molar heat of decomposition for NH ₄ NO ₃ =7.5276 80=602.2 ~kJ / mol
