Enthalpy of formation of HF and HCl are -161 kJ and -92 kJ respectively. Which of the following statements is incorrect?
HCl is more stable than HF
HF and HCl are exothermic compounds
The affinity of fluorine to hydrogen is greaterthan the affinity of chlorine to hydrogen
HF is more stable than HCl
A.
HCl is more stable than HF
HF is more stable than HCl. The reason is that in the formation of HF, more energy is produced. It means, HF has less energy than HCl and hence is more stable.
In other words, we need more energy to break H-Fbond, hence HF is more stable.
The enthalpies of formation of Al2O3 and Cr2O3 are -1596 kJ and -1134 kJ respectively. H for the reaction,
