The enthalpy of hydrogenation of cyclohe...

The enthalpy of hydrogenation of cyclohexene is `-119.5kJ mol^(-1)`. If resonance energy of benzene is `-150.4kJ mol^(-1)`, its enthalpy of hydrogenation would be `:`

A

`-358.5 "kJ mol"^(-1)`

B

`-508.9 "kJ mol"^(-1)`

C

`-208.1 "kJ mol"^(-1)`

D

`-269.9 "kJ mol"^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Enthalpy of hydrogenation of benzene = 3 x Enthalpy of hydrogenation of cyclohexene - resonance energy of benzene
=3 (-119.5)-(-150.4)=-208.1 kJ `mol^(-1)`.
