When 1 mole of CO(g) reacts with H2O(l) to form CO2(g) and H2(g) according to the following equation, 2.80 kJ of energy are absorbed. CO(g) + H2O(l)CO2(g) + H2(g) Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? _________ What is the value of q? kJ

Answer: Endothermic, 2.80 kJ

Explanation

Since this reaction absorbs heat, it is endothermic.

The energy absorbed per mole CO is 2.80 kJ and this reaction is already balanced. q= 2.80 kJ

Hope this helps:)
