Enthalpies of formation of CCl 4 ( g ) , H 2 O ( g ) , CO 2 ( g ) and HCl are - 105 , - 242 , - 394 and - 92 kJ mol - 1 respectively. The magnitude of enthalpy of the reaction given below is kJmol - 1 . (nearest integer) CCl 4 ( g ) + 2 H 2 O ( g ) → CO 2 ( g ) + 4 HCl ( g )
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Using Hess's law of constant heat summation: Enthalpy of reaction = Enthalpy of formation of products - Enthalpy of formation of reactants ∴ ΔH f ° = ΔH f ° CO 2 ,   g + 4 ΔH f ° ( HCl ) - ΔH f ° CCl 4 - 2 ΔH f ° H 2 O , r = [ - 394 ] + 4 [ - 92 ] + 105 - 2 × [ 242 ] = - 394 - 368 + 105 + 484 = - 173   kJ / mole
