Oxidation of gaseous ClF by F2 yields liquid ClF3, an important fluorinating agent. Use the following thermochemical equations to calculate ΔH

for the production of ClF3:

(1) 2 ClF(g) + O2(g) → Cl2O(g) + OF2(g) ΔHo = 167.5 kJ
(2) 2 F2(g) + O2(g) → 2 OF2(g) ΔHo = −43.5 kJ
(3) 2 ClF3(l) + 2 O2(g) → Cl2O(g) + 3 OF2(g) ΔHo = 394.1 kJ
