    The enthalpy of reaction, \[{{H}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\to {{H}_{2}}O(g)\] is \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}\] and that of \[{{H}_{{{2}_{(g)}}}}+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\to {{H}_{2}}{{O}_{(l)}}\]is \[\Delta {{H}_{2}}\]. Then:

    A)  \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}<\Delta {{H}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}+\Delta {{H}_{2}}=0\]

    C)  \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}>\Delta {{H}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}=\Delta {{H}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The enthalpy of \[{{H}_{2}}O(l)\] is lees than that of \[{{H}_{2}}O(g)\], hence more energy will be released when \[{{H}_{2}}O(l)\] is formed, therefore \[\Delta {{H}_{1}}<\Delta {{H}_{2}}\]
