JEE Main & Advanced Chemistry Thermodynamics / रासायनिक उष्मागतिकी Question Bank Heat of reaction

  • question_answer
    The heat of formations of \[CO(g)\] and \[C{{O}_{2}}(g)\] are \[-26.4\] kcal and \[-94.0\] kcal respectively. The heat of combustion of carbon monoxide will be [MP PET/PMT 1988; EAMCET 1993]

    A)                 \[+26.4\,kcal\]  

    B)                 \[-67.6\,kcal\]

    C)                 \[-120.6\,kcal\]

    D)                 \[+52.8\,kcal\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

           Aim: \[CO+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}\to C{{O}_{2}}\]            \[\Delta H=\Delta H_{f}^{0}\,(C{{O}_{2}})-\left[ \Delta H_{f}^{0}(CO)+\frac{1}{2}\Delta H_{f}^{0}({{O}_{2}}) \right]\]                                 \[=-\,94.0-(-26.4)=-67.6\,\,kcal.\]
