The enthalpies of combustion of carbon and carbon monoxide are `-393.5` and `-283` kJ `mol^(-1)` respectively. The enthaly of formation of carbon monoxide per mole is :

A

`110.5 kJ`

B

`676.5 KJ`

C

`-676.5 KJ`

D

`-110.5 kJ`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`C(s) + O_(2)(g) rarr CO_(2) , DeltaH = -393.5 kJ mol^(-1) " ""…."(i)`
`CO(g) + (1)/(2)O_(2)(g) rarr CO_(2)(g), DeltaH = - 283 "KJmol"^(-1)" ""…."(ii)`
On subraction equation (2) from equation (1) , we get `C(s) + O_(2)(g) rarr CO(g), DeltaH = -110.5 "KJ mol"^(-1).`
The enthalpy of formation of carbon monoxide per mole `=-110.5 "KJ mol"^(-1)`
