Answer:
-829.1kJ
Explanations:
Given the following chemical equations
[tex]\begin{gathered} N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow2HN_3(g)\text{ }\triangle H=-115kJ \\ 2NH_3(g)+4H_2O(l)→2NO_2(g)+7H_2(g)\text{ }ΔH=-142.5kJ \\ 2H_2O(l)→2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\text{ }ΔH=+285.8kJ\text{ \lparen multiplied through by 2\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} N_2(g)+\cancel{3H_2\left(g\right)}\rightarrow\cancel{2HN_3(g)\text{ }}\triangle H=-115kJ \\ \cancel{2NH_3\left(g\right)}+\cancel{4H_2O\left(l\right)}→2NO_2(g)+\cancel{7H_2(g)\text{ }}ΔH=-142.5kJ \\ \cancel{4H_2\left(g\right)}+2O_2(g)\rightarrow\cancel{4H_2O\left(l\right)}ΔH=-571.6kJ\text{ \lparen multiplied through by 2 and swap\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex]
After cancelling out the compounds on different sides to generate N2 + 2O2 -> 2NO2 as shown:
[tex]\begin{gathered} N_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow2NO_2\text{ }\triangle H=-115kJ-142.5kJ-571.6kJ \\ N_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow2NO_2\text{ }\triangle H=-829.1kJ \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence the enthalpy change for the reaction is -829.1kJ
