QAIPMT-2002-Ch-2760: NEET 2002 Chemistry - Class 11 AIPMT-2002-Ch-2760 Solution: Heat of combustion \( H^ \) for C(s), \(H_2(g)\) and…
Heat of combustion for C(s), and are -94, -68 and -213 kcal/mol, then for C(s)+2 is
Multiple Choice Options
- A kcal
- B kcal
- C kcal
- D kcal
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
C (s) + 2H 2(g) _ CH 4(g) , _ H o = ?
C (s)
+ O 2 (g) _ CO 2(g) , _ H = � 94 kcal/mol ....(1)
H 2(g) + 1 2 O 2 (g) _ H 2 O (g) , _ H = � 68 kcal/mol ....(2)
CH 4 (g)
+ 2O 2 (g) _ CO 2(g) + H 2 O (l) , _ H = � 213 kcal/mol ....(3)
Performing (1) + 2 _ (2) � (3)
_ H o = [� 94 � 2(68)] � (�213) kcal/mol
= [� 94 � 136] + 213 k cal/mol
= � 230 + 213 = � 17 kcal/mol
