Q101
Given, ; = - 393.5 kJ mol-1 + = - 285.8 kJ mol-1 + + = + 890.3 kJ mol-1 Based on the above thermochemical equations, the value of at 298 K for the reaction + will be :
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
C(graphite) + O2(g) CO2 (g);
= - 393.5 kJ mol-1 .............(1)
+
= - 285.8 kJ mol-1 .........(2)
+
+
= + 890.3 kJ mol-1 .........(3) C(graphite) + 2H2(g) CH4 (g);
H = ? ........ (4) You can see, [Eq. (1) + Eq. (3)] + [2 × Eq. (2)] = Eq. (4) [
rH1 +
rH3 ] + [2
rH2] =
H
H = [(-393.5) + (890.3)] + [2(-285.8)] = -74.8 kJ / mol
