Answer:

Q = 12.5 kJ

Explanation:

The expression to use to calculate Heat is:

Q = H° * n

Where:

Q: heat (J or kJ)

H°: enthalpy of reaction (kJ/mol)

n: moles

Now, as it was stated in the comments, the question is incomplete, and here is the missing part:

Given:

2A + B  A2B (1)

H° = – 25.0 kJ/mol

2A2B  2AB + A2 (2)

H° = 35.0 kJ/mol

With these two reactions, we can calculate the heat.

Now, with the above two reactions, we need to get the general reaction (The one the question is giving), so, let's use (1) and (2) and do the sum of them:

2A + B -------> A2B   H°1 = -25 kJ/mol

2A2B --------> 2AB + A2   H°2 = 35 kJ/mol

Now, we sum both equations, we can see that one A2B cancels out with one A2B from equation 2, so, the equation gives:

2A + B + 2A2B -------> 2AB + A2

And the enthalpy, it's just summed:

H°3 = -25 + 35 = 10 kJ/mol

Now with this value we can calculate heat:

Q = 10 * 2.5 = 25 kJ

However, in the reaction we have 2A, so it's not 1:1 mole ratio, but instead is 1:2, so this result we have to divide it between 2 so:

Q = 25 / 2 = 12.5 kJ
