The enthalpy change of the reaction is 1124 kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

For the given chemical reaction:

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction is 1124 kJ

the density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3

the relation between density and mass and volume is

density = mass / volume

given :

mass of gold = 13 g

density = 13g / volume = 19.3

volume = 13 /19.3 = 0.67 cm^3

thus volume of gold nugget = 0.67 cm^3
