A student wishes to measure the enthalpy of formation of carbon
dioxide gas. The student goes to the lab and burns 36 grams of
graphite (C(s)) in an excess of oxygen and determines that 1134
kJ of heat is released. What is the enthalpy of formation of
carbon dioxide gas?
C(s) + O2(g) -> CO2(g)
A. -394 kJ/mol
B. -1,134 kJ/mol
C. -31.5 kJ/mol
D. 394 kJ/mol
E. -378 kJ/mol
