Calculate the heat of combustion (in kJ) of methane from the following data :

(i) C(graphite) + 2H2 (g) → CH(g) ; H = -74.8 kJ

(ii) C(graphite) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g) ; H = -393.5 kJ

(iii) H2 (g) + 1/2 O2 (g) → H2O (l) ; H = -286.2 kJ

  • -891.1

  • -816.3

  • -965.9

  • -1040.7


A.

-891.1

The heat of combustion of methane from the above given equation is-

H = +74.8 + (-393.5) + (-286.2 × 2)

      = -891.1 kJ

Therefore, the equation formed is -

CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l)

Which of the following is an endothermic reaction?

  • N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) - 92 kJ → 2NH3 (g)

  • N2 (g) + O2 (g) + 180.8 kJ → 2NO (g)

  • H2 (g) + Cl2 (g) → 2HCl (g) + 184.6 kJ

  • C (graphite) + 2H2 (g) → CH2 (g) + 74.8 kJ

  • 3O2 dischargesilent electric 2O3H = -284.5 kJ

  • Ozone undergoes addition reaction with unsaturated carbon compounds

  • Sodium thuosulphate reacts with I2 to form sodium tetrathionate and sodium iodide.

  • Ozone oxidises lead sulphide to lead sulphate.


430.

Which of the following is not correct?

  • Dissolution of NH4Cl in excess of water is an endothermic process.
