MCQ
The $\Delta H_f^o$ for $CO_2 (g), CO(g)$ and $H_2O (g)$ are $-393.5, -110.5$ and $-241.8\, kJ\, mol^{-1}$ respectively. The standard enthalpy change (in $kJ$) for the reaction $CO_2 (g) + H_2 (g) \to CO (g) + H_2O (g)$ is
  • A
    $524.1$
  • $41.2$
  • C
    $-262.5$
  • D
    $-41.2$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$41.2$
b
$\Delta H = H^o_f$ (products) $-$ $\Delta H^o_f$ (reactants) $= -110.5 + (-241.8) -(-393.5+0) = 41.2\, kJ$
