Consider the following reactions :

C(s)+O2( g)⟶CO2( g)+x kJ\mathrm{C}(s)+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{~g})+x \mathrm{~kJ}

CO(g)+12O2(g)⟶CO2(g)+y kJ\mathrm{CO}(g)+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{O}_2(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2(g)+y \mathrm{~kJ}

The heat of formation of CO(g)\mathrm{CO}(g) is :
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
(y−x)kJ/mol(y-x) \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{mol}
Option C is correct. The heat of formation of CO(g) can be calculated by subtracting the second reaction from the first, resulting in (y-x) kJ/mol.
