Question: 6 4. (a) Given the following experimental data: H2(g) + F2 (g) 2HF (g) AH, = -537 kJ C(s) + 2F2 (g) CF4 (8) AH,

6 4. (a) Given the following experimental data: H2(g) + F2 (g) 2HF (g) AH, = -537 kJ C(s) + 2F2 (g) CF4 (8) AH, = - 680 kJ 2C(s) + 2H2 (g) C2H4 (g) AH, = -52.3 kJ Calculate the standard enthalpy of reaction (AHL) of ethylene (CH4) with fluorine (F2). The products of the reaction are carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) and hydrogen fluoride (HF).
