Here, in which case can the calculated standard reaction enthaply `(Delta_(1) H^(@))` be identified as the standard molar enthalpy of formation for methanol `(Delta_(g) H_(CH_(3) OH^(2)))`?

A

`CH_(4) (g) + (1)/(2) O_(2) (g) rarr CH_(3) OH (g)`

B

`C_("diamond") + (1)/(2) O_(2) (g) rarr 2 H_(2) (g) + CH_(3) OH (l)`

C

`CO (g) + 2 H_(2) (g) rarr CH_(3) OH (l)`

D

`C_("graphite") + (1)/(2) O_(2) rarr 2H_(2) (g) + CH_(3) OH(l)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The standard enthalpy of formation of a substance, denoted by `Delta_(f) H^(@)`, the the enthaply change for the formation of one mole of the substance in its standard state from its constiuent elements in their standard states. Thus, `Delta_(f) H^(@)` refers to specific reaction.

The combusition of 1 mol of benzene (C_(6) H_(6)) takes place at 298 K and 1 bar pressure. After combustion, CO_(2) (g) and H_(2) O (1) are produced and 3267 kJ of heat is liberated. Calculate the standard enthaply of formation, Delta_(f) H^(@) of benzene. Standard enthapies of formation of CO_(2) (g) and H_(2) O (1) are - 393.5 kJ mol^(-1) and - 258.83 kJ mol^(-1) , respectively. Strategy : Apply Eq. the mathematical form of Hesis's law, to the combustion reaction of 1 mol of benzene. Remember Delta_(f) H^(@) for O_(2) (g) is zero by convention. We are give Delta_(1) H^(@) and Delta_(f) H^(@) values for all substance except C_(6) H_(6) (1) . We can solve for this unknown.
