KVPY2017ChemistryThermodynamics (C)
The maximum work (in kJ mol ⁻¹ ) that can be derived from complete combustion of 1 ~mol of CO at 298 ~K and 1 ~atm is [Standard enthalpy of combustion of CO =-283.0 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹ ; standard molar entropies at 298 ~K ; S _ O 2 =205.1 ~J ~mol ⁻¹ . S _ CO =197.7 ~J ~mol ⁻¹, ~S _ CO 2 =213.7 ~J ~mol ⁻¹ ]
Options
- A257
- B227
- C57
- D127
Correct answer
A. 257
Step-by-step solution
Co ( g )+ 1 2 O ₂( ~g ) CO ₂( ~g ) N =-283.5 S =213.7-197.7- 20501 2 =-86.5 G =-283- 298 (-86.5) 1000 =-2570 ~kJ ~W _ =- G =-(-257 ~kJ )=257 ~kJ
