Given the following information:
C(s) +O 2 (g) →CO 2 (g) ΔH=−393.5 kJ
H 2 (g) +(l/2) O 2 (g) →H 2 O(l)
ΔH=−285.8 kJ
C 2 H 2 (g) +(5/2) O 2 (g) →2 CO 2 (g) +H 2 O(l)
ΔH=−1299.8 kJ
find the enthalpy change for:
2 C(s) +H 2 (g) → C 2 H 2 (g)
(A) 454.0 kJ
(B) −227.0 kJ
(C) 0.0 kJ
(D) 227.0 kJ
(E) −454.0 kJ
- A sample of gallium metal is sealed inside a well-
insulated, rigid container. The temperature
inside the container is at the melting point of
gallium metal. What can be said about the

the surroundings.
(A) The total energy increases. The total entropy
will increase.
(B) The total energy is constant. The total
entropy is constant.
(C) The total energy is constant. The total
entropy will decrease.
(D) The total energy is constant. The total
entropy will increase.
(E) The total energy decreases. The total entropy
will decrease.
