The heat of neutralization of

HCl

NaOH

is – 55.9 KJ/mol. If the heat of neutralization of

HCN

NaOH

is – 12.1 KJ/mol. The heat of dissociation of

HCN

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

43.8 KJ

Option B (43.8 KJ) is correct because the heat of dissociation of HCN is the difference between the heat of neutralization of a strong acid and the heat of neutralization of HCN.

The internal energy of one mole of a gas is: An ideal gas is allowed to expand both reversibly and irreversibly in an isolated system. If

{T_i}

is the initial temperature and

{T_f}

is the final temperature, which of the following statements is correct? For which of the process, ∆S is negative? The work done by a weightless piston in causing an expansion ∆V (at constant temperature), when the opposing pressure, P is variable, is given by: Assertion :- At constant pressure of the change

\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{s}) \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{g})

work done is negative.

Reason :- During phase transition work done is always negative. For the reaction,

\mathrm{X}_2 \mathrm{O_4(l}) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{XO}_2(\mathrm{g}), \Delta U=2.1 \mathrm{~kcal}, \Delta S=20 \mathrm{~cal} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}
