Given that
C+O2→CO2:ΔH∘=−xkJ\mathrm{C}+\mathrm{O}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2: \Delta \mathrm{H}^{\circ}=-\mathrm{x} \mathrm{kJ}

2CO+O2→2CO2:ΔH∘=−ykJ2 \mathrm{CO}+\mathrm{O}_2 \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{CO}_2: \Delta \mathrm{H}^{\circ}=-\mathrm{y} \mathrm{kJ}

the enthalpy of formation of carbon monoxide will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
y−2x2\frac{y-2 x}{2}
Option B (y−2x2\frac{{y-2x}}{{2}}) is correct because it is derived from Hess's Law by manipulating the given equations to obtain the formation equation for CO.
