41. Nitrogen dioxide, NO2(g), is an emission resulting from the burning of gasoline in an
automobile engine that contributes to the formation of smog and acid rain. It can be
converted to dinitrogen tetroxide as shown below:
2NO2(g) N2O4(g)
a. Use Hess’s law and the following equations to determine the enthalpy change for
this reaction.
(1) N2(g) + 2O2(g) 2NO2(g) ∆Ho = 66.4 kJ
(2) N2(g) + 2O2(g) N2O4(g) ∆Ho = 11.1 kJ
b. Write the thermochemical equation for the overall reaction.
What Is Required?
You need to determine the enthalpy change of a reaction by using two other reactions.
What Is Given?
You are given the overall equation. You are given two equations and their
corresponding enthalpy changes that can be manipulated to represent the individual
steps that occur to reach the overall equation.
Plan Your Strategy
a. Apply Hess’s law. The given equations can be manipulated so that their reactants
and products match the reactants and products in the overall equation.
To manipulate the equations, reverse (1).
When an equation is reversed, the sign of ∆Ho is reversed. If the stoichiometric
coefficients in a given equation are multiplied by an integer or a fraction, multiply
∆Ho for that equation by the same integer or fraction.

What Is Required?
You need to determine the enthalpy change of a reaction by using four other reactions.
What Is Given?
You are given the overall equation.
You are given four equations and their corresponding enthalpy changes that can be
manipulated to represent the individual steps that occur to reach the overall equation.
Plan Your Strategy
Apply Hess’s law. The given equations can be manipulated so that their reactants and
products match the reactants and products in the overall equation.
Manipulate the equations by first reversing each of (1) and (2). Then, multiply the
coefficients of (3) by 1
2and multiply the coefficients of (4) by 2.
When an equation is reversed, the sign of ∆Ho is reversed.

Plan Your Strategy
To determine the overall reaction, add the manipulated equations together, cancelling
species that are common to both sides.
Add the ∆Ho values together to find the enthalpy change for the overall reaction.

Check Your Solution
Since the equations add to give the overall equation, the given individual equations
must have been manipulated correctly. Check that the correct sign has been carried
through with each ∆Ho term. The overall ∆H
o shows the same precision as the least
precise used in the calculation with one digit to the right of the decimal point.
