Q.

Enthalpies of formation of CCl4(g), H2O(g), CO2(g) and HCl(g) are -105, -242, -394 and -92 kJ mol-1 respectively. The magnitude of enthalpy of the reaction given below is _________ kJ mol-1. (Nearest Integer)

CCl4(g)+2H2O(g)CO2(g)+4HCl(g)                             [2023]

 


Ans.

(173)

ΔHf=ΔHf(CO2,g)+4ΔHf(HCl)-ΔHf(CCl4)-2ΔHf(H2O,r)

=[-394]+4[-92]+105-2×[-242]

=-394-368+105+484

=-173 kJ/mol
