Ethyl alcohol, CH;CH,OH, was one of the first organic chemicals deliberately synthesized by humans. It has many uses in industry, and it is the alcohol contained in alcoholic beverages. It can be obtained by the fermentation of sugar or synthesized by the hydration of ethylene in the following reaction: H H H H C=C + H-0: Н—с—с—о—н H H Using the bond energies in Table 7.3, calculate an approximate enthalpy change, AH, for this reaction.
