5.29 We can calculate U by rearranging Equation 5.10 of the text.
H−P V
U
Substituting into the above equation:
U
483.6 kJ/mol − (1.00 atm )(32.7 L) 101.3 J

We have just calculated an enthalpy at standard conditions, which we abbreviate H rxn . In
this case, the reaction in question was for the formation of one mole of CH3OH from its elements
in their standard state.
Therefore, the H rxn that we calculated is also, by definition, the standard heat of formation H f
of CH3OH ( 238.7 kJ/mol).

Using H as 185.2 kJ (2
92.6 kJ), (because the question involves the formation of 4
moles of ammonia, not 2 moles of ammonia for which the standard enthalpy is given in the
question), and P V as 9.9 kJ (for which we just solved):

Knowing that the standard enthalpy of formation of any element in its most stable form is zero,
and using Equation 5.18 of the text, we write:

In a similar manner, you should be able to show that Hf (CaCl 2 )

In both cases, calorimetry could be used to measure the enthalpy changes.
