AI Thread Summary
To calculate the heat of vaporization of titanium (IV) chloride (TiCl4), the standard molar enthalpy of formation for the liquid form (-804.2 KJ/mole) is reversed to +804.2 KJ/mole. This value is then combined with the standard molar enthalpy of formation for the gaseous form (-763.2 KJ/mole). The resulting equation shows that the heat of vaporization is calculated as -763.2 + 804.2, yielding a value of 41 KJ/mole. However, some participants suggest that the problem may be more complex than it appears. The discussion emphasizes the importance of correctly interpreting the enthalpy values in the context of phase changes.

How would you calculate the heat of vaporization of titanium (IV) chloride using the following data:

Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g)-----TiCl4 (l) Standard Molar Enthalpy of formation= -804.2 KJ/mole

Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g)-----TiCl4 (g) Standard Molar Enthalpy of formation= -763.2 KJ/mole



Is it something as simple as subtracting or adding the two numbers?

What would be your reaction for the heat ot vaporization? How would that relate to the two equations you have written?

this is very easy problem!

Solve: you reverse the first equation:
TiCl4 (l) --->Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g) Standard Molar Enthalpy of formation= +804.2 KJ/mole
Then you combine with the second

Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g)-----TiCl4 (g) Standard Molar Enthalpy of formation= -763.2 KJ/mole
You have:
Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g) + TiCl4 (l)-----TiCl4 (g) + Ti (s) + 2Cl2 (g)
so, TiCl4(l) --> TiCl4(g) Enthalpy = -763.2 + 804.2 = 41 KJ/mole

This may be the correct answer!
But this problem is not like that!
 
I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
