What is the enthalpy change for,

2 {H}_2 {O}_2(l) \rightarrow 2 {H}_2 {O}(l)+{O}_2(g)

if heat of formation of

{H}_2 {O}_2(l)

and

{H}_2 {O}(l)

are -188 and

-286 {~kJ} / {mol}

respectively?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

-196 {~kJ} / {mol}

Option A (-196 kJ/mol) is correct because it is calculated by subtracting the enthalpy of formation of the reactants from the enthalpy of formation of the products, considering the stoichiometric coefficients.

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}

300 \mathrm{~K}

. Hence,
