The correct Answer is:
To calculate the enthalpy of allotropic transformation from monoclinic to rhombic sulfur, we can use the provided enthalpy changes for the reactions involving both forms of sulfur. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the reactions with their enthalpy changes**: - For rhombic sulfur: \[ S(\text{rhombic}) + O_2(g) \rightarrow SO_2(g) \quad \Delta_rH^\circ = -294.1 \, \text{kJ} \] - For monoclinic sulfur: \[ S(\text{monoclinic}) + O_2(g) \rightarrow SO_2(g) \quad \Delta_rH^\circ = -295.4 \, \text{kJ} \] 2. **Reverse the reaction for rhombic sulfur**: - When we reverse the reaction for rhombic sulfur, we get: \[ SO_2(g) \rightarrow S(\text{rhombic}) + O_2(g) \quad \Delta_rH^\circ = +294.1 \, \text{kJ} \] 3. **Combine the reactions**: - Now, we can add the two reactions together: \[ S(\text{monoclinic}) + O_2(g) \rightarrow SO_2(g) \quad \Delta_rH^\circ = -295.4 \, \text{kJ} \] \[ SO_2(g) \rightarrow S(\text{rhombic}) + O_2(g) \quad \Delta_rH^\circ = +294.1 \, \text{kJ} \] 4. **Cancel out common species**: - The \(SO_2(g)\) and \(O_2(g)\) on both sides cancel out: \[ S(\text{monoclinic}) \rightarrow S(\text{rhombic}) \] 5. **Calculate the overall enthalpy change**: - Now, we can find the overall enthalpy change for the transformation from monoclinic to rhombic sulfur: \[ \Delta H = (-295.4 \, \text{kJ}) + (+294.1 \, \text{kJ}) = -1.3 \, \text{kJ} \] ### Final Answer: The enthalpy of allotropic transformation from monoclinic to rhombic sulfur is \(-1.3 \, \text{kJ}\). ---
