The formation of water from H(2)(g) and ...

The formation of water from `H_(2)(g)` and `O_(2)(g)` is an exothermic process because :

A

The chemical energy of `H_2(g) and O_(2)(g)` is mere than that of water

B

The chemical ener gy of `H_2(g) and O_(2)(g)` is less than that of water

C

The temperature of `H_2(g) and O_(2)(g)` is higher than that of water

D

The temperature of `H_2(g) and O_(2)(g)` is lower th an that of water

For the process, H_(2)O(l) to H_(2)O(g)

The formation of the oxide ion O_((g))^(2-) requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below. O_((g)) +e^(-) = O_((g))^(-) DeltaH^(@) =- 142 kJ mol^(-1) O_((g))^(-) + e^(-) = O_((g))^(2-) DeltaH^(@) = 844 kJ mol^(-1) This is because of :
