When ' X ' g of graphite is completely burnt in a bomb calorimeter in excess of O ₂ at 298 ~K and 1 ~atm pressure as given in the equation C (graphite) + O ₂( ~g ) CO ₂( ~g ) The temperature of calorimeter raised from 298 ~K to 302 ~K . If the heat capacity of the calorimeter and molar enthalpy change for the reaction at 1 ~atm and 298 ~K are 20.7 ~kJ ~K ⁻¹ and -248.4 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹ , ' X ^ in g is
Options
- A8
- B2
- C3
- D4
Correct answer
D. 4
Step-by-step solution
Heat released in the reaction with ' X ' g carbon Q = C _ P T =(20.7)(4)=82.8 ~kJ 1 mole or 12 ~g of carbon (graphite) gives 248.4 ~kJ heat ' X ' g carbon gives 82.8 ~kJ heat X= 12 82.8 248.4 =4 ~g
