    Which of the following is an example of endothermic reaction   [MP PMT 1980]

    A)                 \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}\to {{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}};\,\,\Delta E=-314.0\,kJ\]

    B)                 \[C+{{O}_{2}}\to C{{O}_{2}};\,\,\Delta E=-393.5\,kJ\]

    C)                 \[{{N}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\to 2NO;\,\,\Delta E-180.5\,kJ\]

    D)                 \[2{{H}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\to 2{{H}_{2}}O;\,\,\Delta E+571.8\,kJ\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

           Heats of combustions are always exothermic except oxidation of  N as,            \[{{N}_{2}}+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}\to {{N}_{2}}O\]\[\Delta H=+\,ve\]                                 \[{{N}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\,\to 2NO\]  \[\Delta H=+\,ve\]
