    The  enthalpy of combustion of \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{6}}(l)\]is \[-3250kJ\]. When \[0.39g\]of benzene is burnt in excess of oxygen in an open vessel, the amount of heat liberated is:

    A)  \[16.25J\]

    B)  \[16.25kJ\]

    C)  \[32.5J\]

    D)  \[32.5kJ\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The enthalpy of combustion of \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{6}}(l)=3250kJ\] By burning 78 gm. of \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{6}}\] liberated heat =3250 kJ [Mol. wt. of benzene \[=12\times 6+1\times 6=78\]] On buring 0-39 gm. of \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{6}}\] liberated heat \[=\frac{0.39}{78}\] \[=3250\] \[=16.25kJ\]
