The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements given in the question, we will evaluate each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1**: `ΔH_f^(@)` is zero for oxygen `(O_2)`. - The enthalpy of formation (`ΔH_f`) refers to the change in enthalpy when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements in their standard states. - For any element in its standard state, the enthalpy of formation is defined to be zero. - Oxygen in its standard state is `O_2` (gaseous diatomic oxygen). - Therefore, the enthalpy of formation for `O_2` is indeed zero. **Conclusion for Statement 1**: True. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2**: `ΔH_f^(@)` for all the elements at S.T.P. is zero. - The statement claims that the enthalpy of formation for all elements at standard temperature and pressure (S.T.P.) is zero. - However, the enthalpy of formation is zero only for elements in their standard state. - While many elements exist in their standard states at S.T.P., not all elements are in their elemental form at S.T.P. - For example, carbon can exist as graphite or diamond, and the enthalpy of formation for these forms will not be zero. - Therefore, the statement is misleading because it implies that all forms of elements at S.T.P. have a zero enthalpy of formation, which is not accurate. **Conclusion for Statement 2**: False. ### Final Conclusion - Statement 1 is true. - Statement 2 is false. Thus, the correct option is that Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is false.
