    Which of the following reaction defines\[\Delta H_{f}^{o}\]?

    A)  \[{{C}_{(diamond)}}+{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}C{{O}_{2}}(g)\]

    B)  \[\frac{1}{2}{{H}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{F}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}HF(g)\]

    C)  \[{{N}_{2}}(g)+3{{H}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2N{{H}_{3}}(g)\]

    D)  \[CO(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}C{{O}_{2}}(g)\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[\Delta H_{f}^{o}\]is the enthalpy change when 1 mol of the substance is formed from its elements in the standard state. Reaction [a] does not represent \[\Delta H_{f}^{o}\]because standard state of carbon is graphite and not diamond.
