(b) Pent-1-ene has the structural formula CH;CH»CH,CH=CH). It can be converted to
pentane by reaction with hydrogen.
(CH;CH2CH,CH=CH + H—H — CH3CH2CH2CH2CH;
Use the information in the following table to calculate the net energy change for this

H—H +432An experiment was performed to investigate the enthalpy change when iron filings are
added to copper(II) sulphate solution. 5.0 g of iron was added to 50.0 cm? of copper(I)
sulphate solution of concentration 0.50 mol du in a polystyrene cup and the mixture was
stirred. The rise in temperature was 24.0 °C.
(a) If itis assumed that the mass of the copper(II) sulphate solution is 50.0 g. it is possible
to calculate the energy change by using the formula
Energy change (kJ) = mass of solution (kg) x 4.2 rise in temperature (°C)
@ Calculate the energy change for the amounts of reactants in the cup.

i) Calculate the number of moles of copper(II) sulphate in 50.0 cm? of the solution
and hence calculate the energy change per mole of copper(I) sulphate.
