2. Sakura is launching a new line of porcelain merchandise. She wants to figure out how many grams of calcium oxide are made from 3.0 grams of calcium for her new set of ceramics. Which step in Sakura's work below is incorrect? MW: Ca = 40.078g/mol, CaO = 56.078g/mol Ca(s) + O2(g) -> CaO(s) 2 mol Ca 2 mol Cao 56. 078 g CaO 3.0 g Ca x X 2 mol Ca 40. 078 g Ca Step 1 mol Cao Step 2 Step 3 SKR. Step 1 RKS. Step 2 KRS. Step 3 RSK. Nothing is wrong with this solution, Sakura is always right.
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
