4 9701/2/M/J/02 2 Ethanol, C2H5OH, is a most important industrial chemical and is used as a solvent, a fuel and an intermediate in large scale organic synthesis. Ethanol is prepared industrially by the reaction of ethene and steam in the presence of a catalyst. C2H4(g) + H2O(g) →C2H5OH(g) The standard enthalpy change of the reaction can be determined by using the standard enthalpy changes of combustion, ∆Hc, at 298 K. ∆Hc / kJ mol–1 C2H4(g) –1411 C2H5OH(l) –1367 (a) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction. C2H4(g) + H2O(l) → C2H5OH(l) [2] (b) (i) Define the term standard enthalpy change of combustion. … … … (ii) Explain why the state symbols for water and ethanol given in the equation in (a) have been changed from those quoted in the industrial process. … … … (iii) Write the equation for the complete combustion of ethanol. … [4] For Examiner’s Use
