Using bond enthalpies from the Data Booklet, calculate the enthalpy change for the following reaction.

What is meant by the term lattice energy?
The apparatus shown in the diagram can be used to measure the enthalpy change of formation of magnesium oxide, ΔHf⊖(MgO).

List the measurements you would need to make using this apparatus in order to calculate ΔHf⊖(MgO).
Sulfuric acid is manufactured by the Contact process.
One stage in this process is the conversion of sulfur dioxide into sulfur trioxide in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst of vanadium(V) oxide, V2O5.

Some bond energies are given.

Use the data, and the enthalpy change for the conversion of sulfur dioxide into sulfur trioxide, to calculate a value for the S=O bond energy in SO3.
S=O bond energy in SO3=kJmol−1
The Contact process is usually carried out at a temperature of about 400∘C and a pressure just above atmospheric pressure. Using a higher or lower temperature and pressure would affect both the rate of production of sulfur trioxide and the yield of sulfur trioxide.
A reaction pathway diagram for both the catalysed and uncatalysed reactions between SO2 and O2 is shown.

The letters A-E represent energy changes.
Complete the table by stating which letter, A-E, represents the energy change described.

The equation for this stage of the Contact Process is shown.
When SiCl4 vapour is passed over Si at red heat, Si2Cl6 is formed. Si2Cl6 contains a Si - Si bond.
The reaction of Si2Cl6 and Cl2 re-forms SiCl4.
Use bond energy data from the Data Booklet to calculate ΔH⊖ for this reaction.

The rate of the reaction H2( g)+I2( g)⇌2HI(g) is studied.
At 400 K the rate constant for the forward reaction is approximately 1000 times greater than the rate constant for the backward reaction. The overall orders of the forward and backward reactions are the same.

At 700 K the rate constant for the forward reaction is approximately 50 times greater than the rate constant for the backward reaction.
Use this information and the information in (c)(i) to deduce the signs of the ΔH values of the forward and backward reactions. Explain your answer.
When sulfur is heated under pressure with chlorine, the major product is SCl2(Cl−S−Cl).
Use data from the Data Booklet to calculate the enthalpy change, ΔH, for this reaction. The eight sulfur atoms in the S8 molecule are all joined in a single ring by single bonds.
