Given:
i) C(graphite)+O2(g)→CO2(g);    ΔrH⋅⋅=x   kJ   mol−1C\left( {\mathrm{graphite}} \right) + {O_2}\left( g \right) \to C{O_2}\left( g \right);\,\,\,\,{\Delta _r}{H^{ \cdot \cdot }} = x\,\,\,kJ\,\,\,mo{l^{ - 1}}
ii) C(graphite)+12O2(g)→CO2(g);   ΔrH⋅⋅=y  kJ  mol−1C\left( {\mathrm{graphite}} \right) + \frac{1}{2}{O_2}\left( g \right) \to C{O_2}\left( g \right);\,\,\,{\Delta _r}{H^{ \cdot \cdot }} = y\,\,kJ\,\,mo{l^{ - 1}}
iii) CO(g)+12O2(g)→CO2(g);    ΔrH⋅⋅=z  kJ  mol−1CO\left( g \right) + \frac{1}{2}{O_2}\left( g \right) \to C{O_2}\left( g \right);\,\,\,\,{\Delta _r}{H^{ \cdot \cdot }} = z\,\,kJ\,\,mo{l^{ - 1}} Based on the above thermochemical equations, find out which one of the following algebraic relationships is correct?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
x=y+zx = y + \mathrm{ }z
Option D (x=y+zx = y + z) is correct because adding the second and third reactions results in the first reaction, so their enthalpy changes must also add up.
