    If the activation energy for the forward reaction is\[150\text{ }kJ\text{ }mo{{l}^{-1}}\]and that of the reverse reaction is\[260\text{ }kJ\text{ }mo{{l}^{-1}},\] what is the enthalpy change for the reaction?

    A) \[410\text{ }kJ\text{ }mo{{l}^{-1}}\]       

    B)  \[110\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[-110\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]   

    D)         \[-\,410\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]

    E)  \[90\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Enthalpy change for a reversible reaction, \[\Delta H={{E}_{a}}(forward)-{{E}_{a}}(backward)\] \[\Delta H=150-260=-110\text{ }kJ\text{ }mo{{l}^{-1}}\]
